First off let me say that this forum is a lifesaver. I managed to figure out the links in xml file myself, but I cant seem to get the next/previous buttons working the way I want them to. I have got them to work to the point where they will bring up the next image, this is until it gets to the end of the xml node, then it wont start over from the beginning if I hit next. Here is my code:

first off, i'm pretty new with actionscript so the answer to this question may be obvious. however, i cannot for the life of me figure out what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it. so, i went through the tutorial for the auto slideshow with xml [URL] everything is working great for the auto slideshow; however, my issue is with the "previous" and "next" buttons. the "previous" seems to work in that it will back up to the previous slide, no problem, but if my slides are times for 3 seconds each and i hit previous at 2.5 seconds into the current slide, i only have .5 seconds to view the previous slide and not the full 3 seconds.
OK next issue is with the "next" button -- i have 4 slides/photos it works fine from slide 1 to slide 2, but if i hit next to go from 2 to 3 the slideshow starts an endless loop from 1 to 3 to 1 to 3 to 1 and it never jumps out of that loop. the same thing happens from 3 to 4 -- the loop is 2 to 4 to 2 to 4 to 2. again, it doesn't break the loop and go back into the regular sequence. here's the actionscript as it appears in my flash file:

this fullscreen slideshow with random pictures which will be the background of a client's web-site. I have everything working, the preloader, the imaging loading and transitions.There's one thing however that's happening and I don't know how to fix it. What's happening - naturally - is that the previous image is still there, in the background, and I would like that to be removed, I would like to have the previous loader, or just the holder movieclip to get off stage, but I really don't know how to add that to my code.What I was thinking was something in the lines of a for loop. Something like creating the picture's holder inside that for loop so each will be like, picHolder1, picHolder2, picHolder3...and so on. And with that, on completion of the preloader I would remove something like "picHolder -

I am not a programmer, but have managed to combine the slideshow, image gallery and hover features of the provided scripts to create a slideshow that you can control with the previous and next buttons. I have also been able to connect it to an access database so you can control the images / info through Content Management console. once this has been sorted I will post the code here, if its any use to anyone. Here is the script!

I am having problems with a flash file i am working on. Basically i have created a slideshow/ebook that includes two buttons that move forward and backward on the timeline. On each page or frame of the main timeline are other buttons and movie clips. Anyways, I am trying to figure out how ,for example , if the user flips forward quickly through the slideshow that the sounds do not continue to play on the next or previous frames. Everything else on the file works great , it's just a matter of keeping the sounds from overlapping.

If I have say 7 buttons, each containing text that changes color on rollover using the "Up" "Over" and "Down" keyframes in the buttons' timeline. Is there a simple way to get the button's text to change color when clicked, stay that way, and then change back to the original color once one of the other 6 buttons are clicked?
The only thing I can come up with is writing pages of code for each button that changes the color of every other button regardless of whether it was active.
i was making asimple menu .
ActionScript Code:
var currentLink:MovieClip = a_mc;
//buttons mode[code]...........
when i click on the button the alpha of this button will be 0.5 , when i click on another button the alpha of the previous button is still 0.5 , and so if i clicked on all buttons the alpha of all buttons will be 0.5,,,i didn't want that , i want when i click on the button , alpha return to 1 for the previous button .
I am completely new to this with flash and action script. I checked the Flash MP3 Player tutorial and I wonder how I'm doing a previous button and a volume scrolling button in action script?
View 1 RepliesI'm loading in 5 jpegs from an external file using "loadMovie" and i have 5 corresponding buttons (1-5) to load them with.
I want to change the jpeg the button loads in depending whether a separate navigation button has been pressed -
i.e.
navigation buttons:
-motorbike pics
-car pics
-lorry pics
If a user clicked on "car pics" then the loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "car1.jpg", "car2.jpg" and so on...
similarly if the user clicked on "lorry pics", the same loading buttons 1 to 5 would load "lorry1.jpg" and "lorry2.jpg"

View 7 RepliesI've been digging around looking for a tutorial on how to do a next and previous button in ActionScript 2. What I've found is quite elaborate, but all I really need is a next and previous button without all the unnecessary animation.
My project has a menu. When you click on it, the content movieclip with the external image and text objects appears, along with the next and previous button.
I'm wondering how to make it so that when you click on a menu button, like for example, menuObject_3, it goes to menuObject_4 when you click on next, or menuObject_2 when you click previous?
I have three scenes in my project, and from each scene there are two buttons that will link to the other two that aren't showing.

on (release) {
gotoAndPlay("Scene 1", 1);

I am using an xml file containing text and an two image (a thumb and a large image). I have the whole thing working (the asl file, my document class and my xml file). I am now trying to make a next and previous button which, when clicked, will navigate to the next or previous nodes in my xml file. I have a next button with an instance name of nextBtn and a function for that button named onNextBtn (its at the very bottom). How can i write the code so that on a mousedown or click the next node (the info and large image) is loaded?

View 9 RepliesI'm using Kirupa's xml image gallery and what I'm trying to accomplish is to have the gallery loop forward and back, that is when a user clicks the forward button and it comes to the last image it will automatically "loop" and go to the first one and if the user clicks the back button and he's on the first image it will go backwards. I was able to get the forward loop working, but not the back one.
Here's my code:
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);

function vaiIndietro(event:MouseEvent):void {

TypeError: Error #1009:
I'm trying to create a "back" button, but when the user clicks on this button I want the animations to go in reverse and then go to the frame that it is calling. so for example i have 5 notes, what happens first is that "note 1" is on the stage then you click on 'next' and then "note 2" slides in from the bottom and pushes "note 1" up and out of the frame and stops and shows 'back' and 'next' buttons. what i am trying to do is, if the user clicks on 'back' , I want the movie to rewind and have "note 1" slide back down. Or if they click on 'next' 2 will be pushed up and 3 is revealed the same way 2 came in.
