the holder.mc is on the main timeline of the external swf. so it should be

this.\_parent.holder … right?

Super **Kax**

all is working well, 🙂 made some new variables and a new array for text. so whenever a image is selected there is a text title with it. So i kinda merged both projects together 🙂

Now if i want to have the loader mc that holds the image to , when a image is loaded , to be able to be selected to open up a html page container a larger image.

Im guessing create some more variables and a new array callled urls holding the appropriate urls matching up the image and text array. and basically call a get url ? in the function? is this right

```auto

_global.subgalleryurl=0, _global.indexurl=0;
galleryUrl = [["image1a.html", "image1b.html"],["image2a.html", "image2b.html"]];

test.sub.onRelease = function() {
	_global.subgalleryurl = 0;
	_global.indexurl = 0;
this._parent._parent.loader.getUrl(gallery[subgallery][index]);

```

does sound right?

yeah… that would be the idea. 🙂

but this line doesn’t make any sense…

```auto
this._parent._parent.loader.getUrl(gallery[subgallery][index]);

```

what’s that?? :-\

ok, mistake. that suppose to say that the result of that button’s function when click it will load what is in the url array

```auto

this._parent._parent.loader.getURL(galleryurl[subgalleryurl][indexurl]);

```

yup… and remember to use a global variable so you don’t any addressing problems. 😉

and also assign the event handler everytime you load a .jpg, since it will be erased once the new .jpg is loaded into the MovieClip.

</div>

actually its not working like i thought :-\

With the above script when gallery 1 butt is selected is will load the image as well as the htm page.

When i wanted the actual loader.mc to be a button depending on the content to go to that particular images html page.

So when you select the loader.mc it will load the html page

i tried

```auto

pic.onRelease = function() {
	_global.subgalleryurl = 0;
    _global.indexurl = 0;
	this._parent.getURL(galleryurl[subgalleryurl][indexurl],_blank);
};

```

but that only worked when the jpegs werent loaded. As soon as the jpegs were loaded it diabled the button.  
:-\ Intresting !

what u think?

that’s what i think… 😛 😉

[edit]i forgot to say… or you could just make an invisible button over the .jpg and assign the actions to it. ;)[/edit]

```

</div>

yeah it should work, its opening the folder directory of where the images are instead??

Ive been adding this to the functions of the subgallery buttons

```auto

_global.subgalleryurl = 0;
_global.indexurl = 0;

//

_global.subgalleryurl = 1;
        _global.indexurl = 0;

//

_global.subgalleryurl = 2;
        _global.indexurl = 0;

//and so on so forth

```

</div>

also tried this, put this in with the rest of the function

```auto

launch.onRelease = function() {
        _global.subgalleryurl = 0;
        _global.indexurl = 0;
        getURL(galleryurl[subgalleryurl][indexurl],"_blank")
        ;
};

//

launch.onRelease = function() {
        _global.subgalleryurl = 1;
        _global.indexurl = 0;
        getURL(galleryurl[subgalleryurl][indexurl],"_blank")
        ;
};
//and so on

```

Ill leave it here for tonight, this way and the way i mentioned a post ago seem to work , but it just opening the folder that holds the htm pages not the actual htm.

Might be different if i put it up on the internet.  
Thanks again Super **Kax** , talk to you 2morrow
