Hello \>

I am trying to make a slide show, which selects the next picture at random from an array.

Unfortunately, the image is undefined when traced…  
Here is my code … Any help would be most appreciated!

var slides:Array =newArray(“image1.jpg”,“image2.jpg”,“image3.jpg”,“image4.jpg”,“image5.jpg”);

function show (){

var ran:Number = Math.random()\*5;  
var i:Number = Math.round(ran);

\_root.movie\_clip.loadMovie(slides\*);

};

setInterval(show,5000);
