Yay that works great i have a slight other problem tho with the same script...
This code should load a MovieClip from the library 5 times, place each on the
stage and then load a different image into each one, instead it loads the 5
MovieClips from the library, places them on the stage and then only loads the
image into the last (5th) MovieClip
!!!! this code will not run as its stripped !!!!
var itemList:XMLList = locationInfo.item;
for (var i = 0; i < itemList.length(); i++) // Loops through 5 times
{
_summaryElement[i] = loadLibrary(summaryContainer); // Load our MovieClip
from the library
loadImage("images/" + i + ".jpg", _summaryElement[i].sumImg); // Should
load image into _summaryElement[i].sumImg which is a blank placeholder movieclip
}
function loadImage(filename:String, mcName:MovieClip):void
{
_mcName = mcName; // Contains MovieClip object (object 1 through 5)
var imageLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var imageURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filename);
imageLoader.load (imageURL);
imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
imgLoadComplete);
}
function imgLoadComplete(ev:Event):void
{
_mcName.addChild(ev.target.content); // This should add the loaded image
into the placeholder movieclip for each of the 5 MovieClips
}
