Hello, I am in need of some help!!
I am using the attachMovie method to put a MovieClip onstage (“thumbHlder_dyn”), and setting a MovieClip (mask_mc) to mask it using setMask. All the code here is External ActionScript…
[COLOR=“Red”]_root.attachMovie(“thumbHolder_mc”, “thumbHolder_dyn”, 2, {_x: 32, _y: 202});
thumbHolder_dyn.setMask (mask_mc);[/COLOR]
Now this works fine, i can see that it is masking OK. What doesn’t work is this line of code (This code is all external as well, using “#include”)::
[COLOR=“red”]_root.thumbHolder_dyn.createEmptyMovieClip(“picHolder”, this.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.thumbHolder_dyn.picHolder.createEmptyMovieClip(“squash”, this.getNextHighestDepth());
_root.thumbHolder_dyn.picHolder.squash.loadMovie(“http://mysite.com/PICS/picture.JPG”);[/COLOR]
I can’t load my .jpeg thumbnails into it the “thumbHolder_dyn” MovieClip. The contents of the folder sit exactly on the server as they do on my computer. It worked fine when I was building it on my computer.
Here is a link to the site for whatever reason ::

PS. the scroller is the MC that i’m trying to load my thumnails into.
