load JPGs doesn't work with variable

[deFUNKT]

I'm not sure if it's the Flash player, but I've got a problem loading JPGs in the player for Mac and for Netscape. It works as should in Internet Explorer.

this.loadMovie("http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/animaux_color/cover.jpg");

works perfectly

this.loadMovie("http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/"+naam+"/cover.jpg");

doesn't work at all, even though Flash has the variable naam, I've checked..

Anyone know what to do? Getting a bit desperate.. Client is on Mac, can't see anything I've done on the site..


Thanks

The variable "naam" may be out of scope,
where does it reside?
May need a

var folder = _root.naam;
this.loadMovie("http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/" + folder + "/cover.jpg");

thanks, but I don't think that's the problem...

This is the complete code:

frame1:

naam=_parent._parent.naam;

frame 4:

if(naam==undefined){
	gotoAndPlay(1);
} else {
	_parent.gotoAndStop(2);
	loadMovie("http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/"+naam+"/cover.jpg", this);
}

try a little test

do a trace like this

trace("http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/"+naam+"/cover.jpg");


then watch for extra blank space like so


http://www.z-bra.com/filesBoekjes/bob /cover.jpg



this happens to alot of people loading vars externally

that's it, thanks.

There was a hard return in there

Because it loads from a textfile, I had arranged them under eachother to make it easier to read, hence the return..

Can I put some character in there that'll prevent the break? I need it to be under each other, because the client is going to use it to update the site..

Otherwise, I'll get the breaks out in flash..
