Help with unload images from movieclip

[onyris]

Hi guys ,

I have a problem trying to unload some images from a movie clip , not sure what i'm doing wrong , if anyone can help me please..

What i have is a movie clip called " thumbnails" on the stage which loads some images from an array . the movieclip "thumbnails" , holds at the begining the first 4 images , then i have a button called "next_btn" which loads the next 4 images .basically when the next_btn is click it is loading the next 4 images which place them on top of the first ones , and is fine , but what i need to do is to clear the movie clip before loads the next images into.
i have tried the unloadMovie method and it is not working , place the code below if anyone has any ideeas what i'm doing wrong ( actionscrip2 )

next_btn.onRelease=function(){
     //unloadMovie ("thumbnails");
     //thumbnails.unloadMovie();
     trace("DFDFDS");
     _global.position=0;
    for (j=check_last+1; j<check_last+4; j++) 
 
                    {        
                        trace(" i got here");
                        this.thumbHolder = _root.thumbnails.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail"+position, position);
                        this.thumbHolder._x = position*spacing;
                        this.thumbLoader = this.thumbHolder.createEmptyMovieClip("thumbnail_image", 0);
 
                        this.thumbLoader.loadMovie(images[j][3]);
                        this.thumbHolder.title =images[j][0];
                        this.thumbHolder.main = images[j][2];
                        position++;
                        this.thumbHolder.onRelease = function() 
                            {
                            loader.loadMovie(this.main);
                            title_txt.text = " Price = " + this.title;
 
                            }
                    }
                    check_last=j;
                    trace (j);
}
 

Thanks.
