Hi. I recently made a photo gallery following this tutorial
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm
I have the gallery in a mc in my flash document. The gallery itself works fine. What I am trying to do is have a page with all thumbnails of the pics and when you press each on, it will make the mc visible with the appropriate picture showing. So far I have make a few pages of thumbnails and I have managed to make it so when you press on each thumnail, the mc with the gallery becomes visible. now, on the mc with the gallery, if I change the value of “p” it will change the picture that is first displayed. So, how can I make the value of “p” change depending on which thumbnail I click? I tried making p = to a variable, then I defined the variable on the first frame of the move, but I can’t get the value of that variable to change when I click the thumbnail. If Iset a value for the variable on the first frame when I define it, it works. The gallery will open to the picture number I defined, but I still can’t get that value to change when I click on the thumbnails. I tried so many different ways I saw on the internet. I tried with global variables too. I’m completely lost here. Please someone help me out because I’m tearing my hair out over here. Here’s the flash file incase anybody wants to look at it.

also, when the mc opens with the gallery I can still hear all the buttons being activated that are behind the gallery when I move the mouse over the picture. Is there anyway to stop that?
Hope I made sense and thanks for the help
