I made a dynamically loading photo gallery with thumbnail buttons that you press and it loads a bigger picture dynamically. The thumbnails are in a movie clip and i added code to make it scroll as you move your mouse left or right. There is one problem I have though. When i press the buttons, it does not load the bigger photo. I do not know if this is because the buttons are placed in a movie clip and it messes up the action on the buttons or if it is something else. If you have any idea, please let me know how to fix it or why it is messed up.

You need a program like winzip or winrar. I recommend winrar

[www.winrar.com](http://www.winrar.com)

Once it’s installed, just right click on the file(s) and select “add to archive” switch it to .zip format and presto-changeo… Magic.
