i have been working with this file: [http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showpost.php?p=555134&postcount=3](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showpost.php?p=555134&postcount=3)

I got the code working from a button from the .fla posted on other page I think now but sometimes the same image presents itself when clicking one after the other.

I simply want to loop through 10 images and have them appear randomly at the click of a button. Can you also make it that it loops through the 10 images before the images appear again? i.e image 1 3 2…10…9 then another random order for the 10 images?

Was pointed to:  
last\_image\_loaded = “img04”  
when load the next image check:  
if(load\_image==last\_image\_loaded)  
{  
//generate other random number/image name  
}else  
{  
last\_image\_loaded = the name of the image you are loading  
//load image  
}

I still can’t get it to work when messing around with above idea

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
