Resizing movieclips

Hi all,

I’m making a flash site that loads in movieclips from the library, but I have it so the stage/container resizes depending on the users resolution. However, now because of the different resolutions I need the movieclips that I am loading into my container to resize as well. (The original container is created by AS).

I have looked into _xscale and _width etc, but it’s not working. I am currnetly using a for loop to attach my movies



var numMcs:Number = 1;
	
	for(i=0; i<=numMcs; i++)
	
	{
	
		container.attachMovie("img"+i+"_mc", "img"+i, 1);

		var maxHeight:Number = 419;
		var maxWidth:Number = 900;
		
		if(img*._width != maxWidth)
		{
			img*._width = maxWidth;
			img*._height = maxHeight;
		}
		
	}


I am more than likely going about this the wrong way, but any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
