I can't seem to remove / unload the external swf files e.g when the carousel.swf (portfolio) is displayed and I press the about button the about content is overlapping the carousel (portfolio) . How can I remove / unload an external swf file from the main flash file and load a new swf file, while at the same time removing garbage collection from memory?
All I'm trying to do is load an external .swf file into a precise location on the stage of my existing Flash file. I've spent an hour and a half on this site search and found nothing. What do I add to my loadMovie command to place the file at specific x,y coordinates?
I would like to run a .swf file into an existing flash file, but the dimension size of the .swf file is too big. I am a beginner to flash and not sure of the steps to execute this. Would anyone be willing to walk me through the steps to import the code?
I'm trying to load an xml file from via http into my flash 8 file. Locally it works fine but when on the server it fails. I assume this has to do the flash security sandbox. How do I get around this. I own the servers so is there some sort of fix that I upload to allow the swf to receive the data?
I am trying to load a txt file into flash by putting the url in an xml file. The XML file is structured like this:
HTML Code: <pic> <image>pictures/AW0001.jpg</image> <description>text/AW0001.txt</description> </pic>
Now I load it into arrays in flash: image[0] and description[0]. The images is displayed the way I want to, the thing is I want to pass on the url that is in description[0] to a loadMovie or something like that. If i say desc_txt.text = description[0]; it will just show AW0001.txt in flash. I've also tried this with load and loadVars but I can't figure it out.

My webapp with flash files (fusioncharts that reads XML data)works well in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. The problem isn't that I can't get the XML data (the Pragma and Chach-Control header, when you get a "Error in loading data") because I can load a Excel file with html data. I get a Movie not loaded error instead, like if that IE can't load the swf file.I tested the application on another computer with https on IE and that didn't work, but it do work on regular http in IE.
I am searching for a way to load and play karoke files "cdg"The loading part is easy the difficult part is interpreting the byte array that i get after loading the file...
How does the browser load flash files? Do they load progressively, or does the browser wait until the entire flash file is loaded before displaying it?The reason is I have a tiny clip that is extremely high in quality, only a few seconds long, but it's over 4 mb.Will the user have to wait until all 4 mb is loaded before viewing? Or does it load as the user watches it? I just imported a .flv into Flash, and exported as a .swf.
It is possible to load a pdf file within a flash movie. Basically I want the user to be able to click on a link to a pdf file and for that file to appear within a designated area of the stage. I know I can load it externally within an html window.
I have tested it with a simple tester.swf that is just a black square with text on and that loads in fine. However when i try to load my slideshow it doesn't appear. I get all of the output from it but it isn't visible.
I have attached the slideshow. As i guess there's something in there that's messing it up.
I am trying to load a movie into flash using an asp file to get the names of the url. the start will be "WEB_ADDRESS" and then it will add a the end using script.
it is looking into the ASP file and trying to fine fileName which is the problem. the filename has a number after it, in this case it is the variable [i] but it is returning this
the Blah is the start of the address which you dont need to know about but the undefined with the number after it should be what it is loading. undefined0 should be "fileName0".
is there any way of making it think the _root.myVars.fileName + [i] is all one name?
