flash actionscript: Hi,

I am sure this is a quick fix. But could use some help.

I am pulling a bunch of variables from a php page. from those vairables i want to import a jpg image corresponding to that variable, like:

story_id = 1

so, first of all, I would want to pull "1.jpg" to correspond to that story.

How would I do this?

Second, in addition to that i will have a correspponding url for the person to click on so i want to add this same variable to the end of a URL.

Please help.

thanks.

toLoad = story_id+".jpg";
loaderClip.loadMovie(toLoad);

toUrl = story_id+".html";
getURL(toUrl);

hth

regards

thanks,

but didn't seem to work (as far as loading the JPG image) haven't tried the getURL part.

I originally had the image in an "images" directory. But even when i put it in the main directory it didn't work. Any other suggestions.

Thanks so much

make certain the jpegs are non - progressive format
Flash will not load it otherwise,

use trace to check that story_id is what you expect,
and if the images are in a folder,

trace(story_id);
toLoad = "images/"+story_id+".jpg";
loaderClip.loadMovie(toLoad);


regards

I can load the jpg fine. At least when i hard code it into the "loadMovie" command.

I checked the variable and it is showing up fine.

But it is still not working.

Any other ideas.
