[Flashr] Photo movieclip help

[Kelvin Luck]

Hi,

The simplist way might be to pass a reference to the photo into the movieclip.

e.g. - just after your mc._alpha line add this:

mc.photo = thisPhoto;

And then change this line:

mc2.my_txt.text = thisPhoto.title;

to:

mc2.my_txt.text = photo.title;

Hopefully that will work - it's been quite a while since I've programmed any AS2... If not let me know and I'll try and suggest another approach,

Hope that helps,

Kelvin :)
