Hi I’m trying to display an image in a movie clip where the location of the image is derived from an xml document.

I’m creating a menu from XML nodes and when the user selects that menu item a separate movie clip is updated with the XML information which corresponds to the menu items nodevalue. In my xml i have an image location defined and I want this to happen…

when the user selects the menu item the node value for the image location dynamically loads the image into the movie clip.

Can anyone help me? I hope i was clear…
