ActionScript 2.0 :: 3D Carousel - Flash And Greybox Integration
Aug 9, 2009
I'm using the Oxylusflash 3d Carousel which uses AS2.0. I've got it installed and working, however I want to trigger a Greybox javascript popup by clicking on an image in the carousel menu. The Greybox popup is initiated in HTML by simply including arguments in the <a href..> tag like this:
Code:
<a href="[URL]" title="Google" rel="gb_page_center[640, 480]">Launch google.com in a 640x480 window</a>
The carousel .fla file (which for commercial reasons I am unable to upload) uses a file called pictureClick.as to handle the onClick events (I think this is the right way to describe it). The pictureClick.as file contains the following:
//function called by onPress event and return "name" variables from xml (if action is other that "_blank")
function pictureClick(par){
//this is the the name of current holder that keeps all images
var father=_root.slideshow.poze;
[Code] .....

how to use greybox from a flash movie.
here is the site with the documentation on how to use grey box
[URL]
Now, you have to install some javascript on your server and call it from the header in your html. now thats fine and ive got it to work on a normal html page, the only problem is i cant seem to figure out what to do in flash.
Here is the HTML to launch [URL] in a new 'greybox' window
Quote:
a href="http://google.com/" title="Google" rel="gb_page_fs[]">Launch google.com in fullscreen window</a>
you can see that there is a 'rel' variable. Can flash understand this. how can I make flash do this?

I have a video player that is currently using XML for its video library which is all fine and dandy. Now I have some developers working on a CMS type page in PHP that is going to hopefully pass some sort of information to my player that will let it know where the video is stored on our server. Is there a way to do this without using FMS? If so does anyone have ideas where I can find the information for it.

I'd like to create one empty Flash movie that is essentially a placeholder for externally loaded content I can change through XML. This content would just be able to randomly load 1 of 3 photos, with a button linking to a website within each of the photos on page load. If the user refreshes the page, a new photo with it's link would appear, but I understand since it's random,having 3 images the same image is likely to reappear, but I can always add additional photos and links.
Does anyone know of a tutorial that might lead me on the correct path to create this? I've found some tuts, but they've been different than my need.

We want to be able to upload over 100+ files (if needed) to a server along with desc + keywords. I see that Flash 8 has the neccessary tools to handle file uploading, but my question is, can we have it act as a Stand alone FTP program so that we can utilize the fastest user upload, or will we be confined to the settings in the server INI settings.IE MAX_UPLOAD_TIME,MAX_FILESIZE, etc. If possible we want to avoid using the HTTP upload as it is noticeably slower. So if we can use flash to utilize user BW to upload, then that would be ideal.

I'm trying to create a Flash Carousel in AS2. I've made the Carousel itself, and have got the icon images and tooltips from an XML file using this code:
xml.onLoad = function()
{
var nodes = this.firstChild.childNodes;
[Code].....
I have functions for 'over', 'out', and 'released', and to move the carousel automatically, left or right depending on mouse position.
I was wondering if there was a way you could make each individual icon have an external link that leads to a different place on my website when you click on an icon, where I could specify the link url itself in the XML file?

I wish to have a 3d carousel much like a flash one in the below link : [URL] however, i wish the images to be dynamically generated and at the same time txt 'beneath' (to be added) the picture to be dynamically updated also...through a database. I wish to get it connected to a back end and probably use a content management system.

Basically I've included actionscript which produces a 3d carousel through an xml file. everything has worked out well except I dont know how to stop the carousel from playing throughout my flash document. I have included button and frame labels which allow you to go to different pages, but on every page the carousel is playing throughout. I've tried the stop();. What I would like is for the actionscript to disappear after frame 19 and beyond. Is there anyway I could do that through actionscript maybe? I am using Flash CS5 and Actionscript 2.0.

I have a Flash carousel on my website, and I wanted to change one of the images, and delete another icon altogether. I have uploaded the revised XML file, published the new .swf (just in case), and uploaded to my Joomla site.For some strange reason, its still showing the old icons in Firefox (even though I've deleted these images from the referenced folder), and its showing the new icons in IE, only without the one image I added. Very strange.I've refreshed, created a new .swf, made sure I've saved the XML file etc but no changeThis is probably one of those amateur mistakes I think, I've thought of everything but drawing a blank at the moment.Oh i should probably mentioned that the revised carousel has 4 icons, and the old one has 5. The new image I put in has an icon of a jigsaw.XML File is as follows
<icons>
<icon image="icon3.jpg" tooltip="Ramis Software" link="/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=57&Itemid=67"/>

I'm trying to edit a basic flash carousel which I made from online tutorials. The carousel has 5 smiling images(as buttons) rotating as normal and when you hover over an image, it changes to an angry face. Now what i'm trying to do is, when the images reach the 5 to 7 o'clock position it changes to the hover image automatically.
Code: Select allvar numOfBalls:Number = 5;
var radiusX:Number = 350;
var radiusY:Number = 160;

I have an average carousel flash component I downloaded... It would be easy to embed into an html webpage but I need it in a flash webpage that I am building...I figured I could put the whole thing into a movie clip and stop on that frame and the carousel animation would work fine but all it does is loop my animation... Even with the "stop();" at the end... My skills are pretty basic in Actionscript...

I've just completed and have now made my own carousel, but it has one problem. The mc's do not swap depths properly which kinda kills the whole illusion...
Code:
var numOfItems:Number = 10;
var radiusX:Number = 250;
var radiusY:Number = 75;
var centerX:Number = Stage.width/2;
var centerY:Number = Stage.height/2;
[Code] .....
My stage is 1000 x 1000. The mc's flash back and forward when they overlap at the edges of the carousel.

I've a carousel, that has got an image and a label that shows a description of the icon. It is done using It has got an ItemRenderer that renders the image above the icon description text. [URL].Up on click event I display the image and details of some text pertaining that image/icon.
Now I wanted to introduce a smaller 'x' icon on top right hand side of the icons so the user could remove the items he's not interested in from the carousel's list of items. This would dispatch a different event so removeIconEvent and clickEvent would be handled differently.

I was wondering if it's possible to include an swf within a javascript carousel that currently just contains stagic images. What I'm looking to do is include a flash animation within the carousel. I guess I've got two main questions: Is it possible to cycle through flash files in the same way as an image? How would I get the javascript and flash to interact so the flash file would know when it had been selected?

I am not new to html or flash but, some what new to XML. I created a carousel based off the tutorials and it works great on my computer but, when I create an html file and attach the .swf file the flash file loads but, the icon images or anything from the .xml file doesn't appear.This is what I use to load my .swf file :
<div id="spacer">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" [code].....
Do I have to put a special script in the html document for it to be able to see the xml file?

I want to ask if these theory is possible in Actionscript 3.0.Basically, whenever accessing an xml file in actionscript 3 we use this var xml FilePath: String = "../XML/XmlFileName.xml" or we could declare a url.I want to ask if it is possible to declare an xml file that accesses variables from vb Instead of declaring the path, we pass a variable in vb instead ? I want the xml to be dynamic instead of being hardcoded.
