Ok... that does load the jpeg. So my next question is why? All the
examples that I can find do not have this. e.g.
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/labs/as3preview/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00000067.html
In this post (
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=60&catid=587&threadid=1226015&enterthread=y)
the guy says that if he tries to load the jpeg in a call to enter_frame or
something similar then it does work. Does it just come down to that you
shouldn't be trying to do things like that in the constructor of a AS only
project? Everything else does seem to work (shapes, text, etc...) so that
doesn't seem like the correct answer to me.
