hello… I have this script for flash player 6… [kirupa tutorials]

loadVariablesNum (“hpadmin/numberOfPics.txt”, 0);  
choice = Math.round(Math.random()\*\_root.photoNumber);  
switch (choice) {  
case 0 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house1.jpg”);  
break;  
case 1 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house2.jpg”);  
break;  
case 2 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house3.jpg”);  
break;  
case 3 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house4.jpg”);  
break;  
case 4 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house5.jpg”);  
break;  
case 5 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house6.jpg”);  
break;  
case 6 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house7.jpg”);  
break;  
case 7 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house8.jpg”);  
break;  
case 8 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house9.jpg”);  
break;  
case 9 :  
loader.loadMovie(“house/house10.jpg”);  
break;  
};

numberOfPics.txt has inside itself: photoNumber=‘some number from 1 to 10’

this is working fine in flash player 6… but doesn’t work in flash player 8… so the question is how to rewrite loadVariablesNum so it would work?

many thx…
