FLASH: LoadMovie with a jpg instead of swf

[Azinger, Richard]

Hello List,


Is there a way to put a jpg on the stage and replace an MC instance instead

of replacing it with a swf file. I'm using the code:


   On (Release)

      Begin Tell Target ("_level0")

         Load Movie ("someSWF.swf", "placeHold")

     End Tell Target

   End On


"SomeSWF.swf" is only a jpg file exported as a swf file. "placeHold" is a

target MC. I plan on having a lot of jpg files to make into swf files and it

seems like such a waste of time if there is an easier way. 


Thanks in advance for you help,


Rich Azinger
