Actionscript 3 loading an array of external images

• CyBrain

  I just need an approach that Actionscript will tolerate.
  I have an array of 36 thumbnail movie clips on the stage. The array is in a movie clip called projects_mc and I'm trying to load them in with projects_mc's class doc.

  projects_mc's code excerpt here: http://pastebin.com/f660bcd1f

  and of course I'm getting
  ReferenceError: Error #1069:
  Property imgLoader not found on PbtnMC and there is no default value.

  but of course I do have it set up in my button class PbtnMC here:

  I even started to try to calculate which image to load from the button class PbtnMC based on x and y position, but tracing x and y positions only gave me 0.

  What would be a feasible way to load these images?

  Just thought of something.
  When I create my array of thumbnails I can pass a number to the button's constructor function so it will know what jpg to load in.
  pBtn = new PbtnMC(pBtnNo);

  So far it traced out correctly from the button class.
