Loading eternal jpg's into a place holder

I would like to load some external jpg’s (from the same folder as the main movie) into a place holder which will be the same for 8 or so swf’s.

I would like the user to have the option of choosing which jpg to view by clicking on a button beneath the place holder.

Can you help?

I have a friends of Ed book on action script which has a scrolling example of this, perhaps you know it, and there is a fla on the download section of this site (photo gallery I think) which both have the jpgs in a folder outside of the movie and are similair to what I would like to achieve. I would also like each jpg to have there own loading bar as well.

Your suggestions and scripts would be much appreciated!
