CS3 - Load Jpg from XML

[ReverendRock]

Round 3... hehe

Im coding a streaming radio - and passing some variables to the player - via an xml file.

the file streams correctly, the text (artist, title, album) passes ok - but i (once again) cant get the image of the cd art to appear.

here is the code im using -

stop();
playlist = new XML();
playlist.ignoreWhite = true;
playlist.onLoad = function(success) {
	if (success) {
		_global.songname = [];
		_global.songband = [];
		_global.songalbum = [];
		_global.songfile = [];
		_global.songimage = [];
		for (var i = 0; i<playlist.firstChild.childNodes.length; i++) {
			_global.songname[i] = playlist.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.name;
			_global.songband[i] = playlist.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.band;
			_global.songalbum[i] = playlist.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.album;
			_global.songfile[i] = playlist.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.file;
			_global.songimage[i] = playlist.firstChild.childNodes[i].attributes.image;
			trace(songname[i]+"  "+songfile[i]);
		}
	}
	_root.createEmptyMovieClip("sound_mc", 1);
	_root.sound_mc.sound_obj = new Sound();
	_global.song_nr = random(songfile.length);
	_root.sound_mc.songStarter(songfile[song_nr], songname[song_nr], songband[song_nr], songalbum[song_nr], songimage[song_nr]);
};
MovieClip.prototype.songStarter = function(file, name, band, album, image) {
	this.sound_obj.loadSound(file, true);
	this.onEnterFrame = function() {
		if (this.sound_obj.position>0) {
			delete this.onEnterFrame;
			this._parent.display_txt.text = name;
			this._parent.display_txt2.text = band;
			this._parent.display_txt3.text = album;
			this._parent.picload.content = image;
		} else {
			this._parent.display_txt.text = "loading...";
		}
	};
	this.sound_obj.onSoundComplete = function() {
		(song_nr == songfiles.length-1) ? _global.song_nr=0 : _global.song_nr++;
		_root.sound_mc.songStarter(songfiles[song_nr], songname[song_nr], songband[song_nr], songalbum[song_nr], songimage[song_nr]);
	};
};
btn_play.onRelease = function() {
	this._parent.sound_mc.songStarter(songfile[song_nr], songname[song_nr], songband[song_nr], songalbum[song_nr], songimage[song_nr]);
};
btn_stop.onRelease = function() {
	this._parent.sound_mc.sound_obj.stop();
	
};
btn_fw.onRelease = function() {
	(song_nr == songfile.length-1) ? _global.song_nr=0 : _global.song_nr++;
	_root.sound_mc.songStarter(songfile[song_nr], songname[song_nr], songband[song_nr], songalbum[song_nr], songimage[song_nr]);
};
btn_rev.onRelease = function() {
	(song_nr == 0) ? _global.song_nr=songfile.length-1 : _global.song_nr--;
	_root.sound_mc.songStarter(songfile[song_nr], songname[song_nr], songband[song_nr], songalbum[song_nr], songimage[song_nr]);
};
playlist.load("playlist.xml");

the movie clip it should lod into is named picload

i can post theFLA if necessary...

XML code is as follows

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<songs>
<song name ="Do's and Dont's" band="Omerta Verse" album="Demo 2006" image="omv.jpg" file="overse.mp3"  />
<song name ="Be My Baby Tonight" band="Someday Providence" album="The Hidden Vibe" image="sp.jpg" file="bbt.mp3" />
<song name ="Taffy (Acoustic Mix)" band="Taffy" album="All Tied Up" image="taff.jpg" file="taffy.mp3" />
<song name ="To A Better Day" band="A Turn of Phrase" album="Demo 2007" image="atop.jpg" file="better.mp3" />
<song name ="Wide Awake" band="Someday Providence" album="The Hidden Vibe" image="sp.jpg" file="wideawake.mp3" />
<song name ="Raise Up" band="Scripture" album="Demo 2007" image="scrip.jpg" file="raiseup.mp3" />

</songs>

Any help is appreciated!!!

you need to use loadMovie, or the MovieClipLoader.

instead of

this._parent.picload.content = image;

try

this._parent.picload.loadMovie(image);
