v5.0 loadmovie problem w/jpg 1

[PaulFynch]

this should be really simple, but it evades my comprehension...

2 files, exactly the same dimensions, same directory
....one jpg in a swf, the other just a jpg (the same jpg)

this works

_root.holderOne.loadMovie("./image001.swf"

image shows up fine

this, however...

_root.holderOne.loadMovie("./image001.jpg"

does not work, the image doesn't show...
i have my suspicions that it is in fact loading and maybe i can't see it??

im stumped

cheers

If you're talking Flash 5.0, it can't dynamically load .jpgs, only .jpgs within .swfs.

i just upgraded, and found out the client wants the imports to be swf anyway!!
thx oldnewbie
