Why, why! Why won't it work?

1

Plz look at the fla. This isn’t working…

I’m using this code to load pictures dynamically:

loadMovie(“foto1.jpg”, “loadMe”);

But when I upload it it doesn’t wants to work

well its because you have the target MCs contained within a graphic, not a MovieClip and you aren’t targeting them correcltly. Change the graphic to a movieclip and give it the instance name “mainMC” then put this code in place of the other:


loadMovie("foto1.jpg", "mainMC.loadMe");
loadMovie("foto2.jpg", "mainMC.loadMe2");
loadMovie("foto2.jpg", "mainMC.loadMe3");
3

or put your current script in the graphic’s first frame

or you could do that, but I’m guessing that the graphic will be movie and he may want to implement AS to move it in the future so i would make it into a MC… I have never used graphics before… I always use MCs…

So then I just have to change the pictures when i want to change the movieclip. I don’t have to use flash anymore.

I want my teather at school to understand it. He doens’t knows flash, so I want to make a flash movieclip whit pictures loaded externly. So he just has to change the pictures, to change the movie.

I guess this works like that… Doesn’t it?

My solution works, but you have to change every instance of the graphic to a movieclip in order for it to work. Here is a file that i fixed and I attached the images that I used…
