RE: FLASH: How can I insert an image located on a different server?

[Branden Hall]

If you need to insert an image from another server you may want to look into

Macromedias

newest product, Generator 2.  It can now insert images, data, or swfs from

any URL, even over

FTP.

The only image you can load from another server would be a Flash SWF

file which would be loaded by Load Movie and placed on a new level or

targeted to replace an MC. You would have to include the whole URL

Load Movie ("http://www.anywhere.com", 5)
