Hi guys,

I am making a new site with a fairly complicated gallery section. It shows an array of thumbnails and when you click a thumbnail the movie loads the larger image counterpart into a section above the thumbnails and then shifts the thumbnails to just below the large version.

I am using the loadMovie method with a moviecliploader. Is there a way for flash to find the height and width of the jpeg/image that is loading without having to fully loading it first? I need my movie to know the dimensions of the image whilst it is loading with the MCL you see. Will flash do this? At the moment I have a seperate data var that holds the dimensions of the large image, but if I do not need this then all the better.

Thanks for any advice,

Steven.
