I need to make each item in my XML unique so that flash can apply a different function to each item in the component. Can you give the items an instance name in XML?

I want a xml text loaded in a normal textfield. I want to embedd the font to the textfield (so not in the xml file). I also want to add links to the xml text and change the look of the link with css. I just want a text file with links in it in Flash and want it to be possible to change it outside of flash so in a XML or text or html file i dont care. As long as I can make links in the text file without the ugly link stripe under the text (so it should be changeable with CSS).

View 2 RepliesI have been working on a Flash movie that loads variable data from an external XML file and dynamically displays the item names in a menu which may then be clicked to display other dynamically-loaded content that corresponds to the menu item that was clicked. I have now come to a standstill in the project as there is something I'd like to achieve but simply cannot work out how. This is my first attempt at working with XML in Flash and one of my early attempts at using variables. What I'm trying to achieve is; once the user has viewed the item's content, they can simply click "next" and "previous" buttons to display all of the content for the next or previous items in the XML document.
I know it probably sounds simple and I'm sure some of you could achieve this in 5 minutes (!) but I can't get my head around some of the coding. I assume previousSibling and nextSibling would come into play here as well as some sort of functions which access arrays of data for the previous and next items, but I'm just not sure how to correctly put these things to use. Rather than post my code and example images of the stage up here on the forums, I've created an html page here: [URL]

We have a Flash swf object embedded in an html page. When the user sees the page it's just a small button, but on the rollover state the area of the object expands and covers more of the page. This is how it was designed. The problem seems to be that the maximum size of the swf object, even though it's transparent and "invisible" unless the user rolls over the button, blocks out all the underlying html so you can't access any of the links. It's as if the object is covering that part of the page even when it's not expanded. I've tried every publish setting I can imagine to compensate and make the item truly transparent so the "hidden" underlying links will still be clickable, but just can't get it.

I am having a nightmare using CSS to style HTML within a dynamic textfield in my flash doc. From what i now understand after much trial and error and reading online, CSS doesn't even work properly in flash even for the tags that it does understand (which are few and far between anyway). For some reason my layout is getting completely screwed up in certain scenarios (predominantly when there are images present too) when i hover over links (which are styled in an external CSS file). If i remove the external CSS styling (which only contains the following simple code):
a:link {text-decoration: none;}
a:active {text-decoration: none;}
a:visited {text-decoration: none;}[code]....
Then everything works fine (but no links are underlined as standard or on hover). Does anyone know of any way to style the links without using an external CSS file (all i want to do is have no underline as standard and then underline them on hover). As this is from user input into a text editor I cannot place these links manually on the page in flash as they could be anywhere, I need a way of parsing the HTML and then displaying it accordingly.

View 2 RepliesI have a quick question. I have created a quick gallery page/swf that uses Greensock Liquid stage/area etc that re-sizes the content upon browser re-size (keeps proportion).
My problem presents itself when I apply a external loader to load the swf using LoaderMax. I'm using the code available on the site and replaced the areas with my titles - yet when I load in browser it displays very small (the size of the external loader stage), and doesn't use the liquid stage within the gallery/page swf. Any ideas as to why? Do I have to add another liquid stage to the loader swf and attach the content?

View 5 RepliesI'm working on a photo-sharing demo using AS2.0, I would like to dynamically load photos (stored as jpgs in the .fla's local directory) into MovieClips, and apply a class instance to them. Currently, for debugging, I've imported jpgs to the Stage, converted them to MovieClips, and then accessed their linkage properties, setting them to the class I need them to implement. But for the final application all of this will have to be done with code.
I know how to dynamically load the jpg into a MovieClip using loadImage(), and I know how to create a MovieClip that is an instance of a class by using attachMovie() with a library symbol and the class name. How do I combine the two? Is there a way to access the linkage properties of a MovieClip dynamically?
