I recently used the loadMovie action to load a .swf file to a target in the movie which it was being called from. Then I tried calling a picture to another target in the movie, but it did not load the picture as intended. I read about it on my book, but it didn’t seem to work. Is there anyways on calling a picture into a target in the movie without placing the picture inside an swf file?:sigh: ---

flash can only load non progressive jpg’s dynamically … so check the image format and make sure it’s not progressive 😉 ---

the image must be in **.jpg** [size=1]joint photographic experts group[/size] format. if the jpg is a progressive jpg, you’d need to reformat it. attach one of your images and i’ll tell you 😉 what’s your image editing program? ---
