What I want to do is load external jpgs and display them within a predifined box. I use the Kirupa’s code for the image loading part ( [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml\_flash\_photogallery.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm) )

But the original images are larger than the display box. I want to rescale them with actionscript, and keep the size ratio of it. But the original pictures don’t have the same size.

Does someone has a mathematical equation (or a link) to solve this problem? 😟

Thanks
