hello!!

i m trying to create a photo gallery that load external pics using xml.

\>\>\> so my xml file is this:

\<gallery\>  
\<image title=“title1 here” main=“images/pic1.jpg” thmb=“thumbnails/pic1thumb.jpg” /\>  
\<image title=“title2 here” main=“images/pic2.jpg” thmb=“thumbnails/pic2thumb.jpg” /\>  
\</gallery\>

\>\>\> my actionscript is this:

myPhoto = new XML();  
myPhoto.ignoreWhite = true;  
myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {  
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;  
numimages = this.firstChild.childNodes.length;  
spacing = 50;  
for (i=0; i\<numimages; i++) {  
this.picHolder = this.firstChild.childNodes\*;  
this.thumbHolder = thumbnails.createEmptyMovieClip(“thumbnail”+i, i);  
this.thumbHolder.\_y = i\*spacing;  
this.thumbLoader = this.thumbHolder.createEmptyMovieClip(“thumbnail\_image”, 0);  
this.thumbLoader.loadMovie(this.picHolder.attributes.thmb);  
this.thumbHolder.title = this.picHolder.attributes.title;  
this.thumbHolder.main = this.picHolder.attributes.main;  
this.thumbHolder.onRelease = function() {  
loader.loadMovie(this.main);  
title\_txt.text = this.title;  
};  
}  
};  
myPhoto.load(“xmlphoto.xml”);

and it s working fine! BUT:  
my goal is that when u rollover the thumbnail another thumbnail loads in the same place!!! can i do that and how!?!!
