[COLOR=#0000ff]Hi all,[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#0000ff]I’m just after completing the adding thumbnails tutorial bu Kirupa. I was able to work through the tutorial fine and got the sample photo gallery working fine but when I try to substitute my own pictures for the sample pictures I get the following error[/COLOR]

Error opening URL “file:///U|/example%5Fgallery/thumbnail%5Ffinal/undefined”

The only code I changed was in the xml file and was

\<pic\>  
\<image\>U:\example\_gallery\rocky\_2.png\</image\>  
\<caption\>Rocky 2\</caption\>  
\<thumbnail\>U:\example\_gallery\rocky\_2\_sm.png\</thumbnail\>  
\</pic\>

[COLOR=blue]as opposed to the original[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#0000ff]Although I do have some prior experience with some other programming languages this is the first time I’ve used xml or flash and I am unsure as to what mistake i’ve made.[/COLOR]  
[COLOR=#0000ff]Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated[/COLOR]

[COLOR=#0000ff]Thanks in advance,[/COLOR]
