hello everybody,

i’ve got a movieclip wich loads .jpgs dynamicly into another movieclip (a holder)… but i’ve got some problems with setting the x and y values of this holder…

goto [http://www.base-ment.com](http://www.base-ment.com) and choose Foto’s as you can see the thumbnails aren’t aligned properly…

here are the actions for a thumbnail:  
frame1:

```auto

holder._alpha = 0;

```

frame 2:

```auto

var dir = _root.gedrukt;
laad = "Flash/source/"+dir+"/thumbs/"+this.http;
groot = "Flash/source/"+dir+"/"+this.http;
holder.loadMovie(laad);

```

frame 5:

```auto

holder._alpha = 100;
if(this.origb>this.origh){
 holder._y = (80-holder._height)/2;
}
if(this.origb<this.origh){
 holder._x = (80-holder._width)/2;
}
stop();

```

who knows whats wrong and can help me out?
