I have a cool xml gallery designed by Scotty. I was wondering what actionscript could I use to add a gray border around each thumbnail and whenever the user rolls over the thumbnail, the border turns to white? Has anyone done this sort of thing before with an XML gallery? [code]...

View 1 RepliesJust thought I'd see if this is possible with the XML Photo Gallery.1. Is it possible to create a dynamic border for the loaded image depending on the size of the image being loaded? 2. Is it possible to move the Y position of the caption text box depending on the height of the loaded image? ie if the image is 200 pixels high, then the text box should be positioned at 220 pixels.The current code I have which loads the images then automatically scrolls through them is:
Code:
delay = 6000;

I have added 3 staggered backgrounds behind each picture that act as a tri-color border around the image, named borderOuter, borderMiddle, borderInner. When i click on the thumbnail, i would like the border to disappear. [code]...
View 2 RepliesCurrently I am using the gallery that has been posted on a link on Kirupa.com where it uses XML and loads in my case .swfs into a border that resizes according to the size of what is loaded. The reason I am using .swfs is because I plan to somehow make it so that the artwork being loaded can be zoomed in on once they are loaded, how I am not sure quite yet. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could please tell me why that sometimes the .swfs load once or twice and then when clicking on other artwork thumbnails they do not load at all. THis just happens for the swfs and not when I would use the jpegs instead of swfs. The swfs just do not seem to be loading as planned, sometimes one or two load sometimes none. Was wondering if someone knew why this is happening and could please give me some help if possible, maybe pertaining to actionscript?[code]

What i am trying 2 do is 2 show the larger image using a lightbox when a tumbnail is clicked (removing the ui loader for good). I have a lightbox that works with flash (when testing movie as well).

I have a dynamic thumbnail gallery that laods thumbnails from db/xml and also each thumbnails associated main image. When the user rolls over the thumbnail the larger image displays to the right.
THis is all working fine however I need to update the script to change the thumbnail gallery layout from a 3 column 2 row gallery to a 4column 4 row gallery.I've adjusted the as and resized the thumbnails to allow for this and setup a 8px spacer between thumbs

View 3 Repliesi'm using a modified version of the xml thumbnail tutorial on this site and am having a weird problem. sometime on some machines the thumbnails are desplayed in reverse order but when the page is refreshed they're dispalyed in the correct order. on other machines they load in in the correct order fine. anyone have any ideas why this would happen? the image names are loaded into an arrayin the onload of the xml the thumb images are put into an array:
for (z=0; z<videototal; z++) {
thumbnails[z] = xmlNode.childNodes[z].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
moviefile[z] = xmlNode.childNodes[z].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;

Ok so i have looked thru the forums for the past two days trying to solve my issue and i didnt find anything that works. I have the xml thumbnail gallery from the site working here.Its the base code except i change some things so that it would work if i loaded with the mxloader component into another movie. When i try and do so the XML file doesnt load. you can see this here. Im not sure if theres something else that i need to do to make this work or what, but i cant seem to figure it out. all the paths are absolute paths (http://ect...). and even stranger is that it worked like 3 or 4 times when i first started then stopped working. so i dont know if its
View 1 Repliesi'm working on a flash xml gallery. But there is one thing i can't figure out.i like it very much when the thumbnails are not i 1 line but 5 next to each other and then down. So the 6th one must load underneath the first one. Is there an actionscript for or is too complex?

How would I do the same thing but using a grid of thumbnails instead of the scroller? Can this grid be made to appear dynamically?
I'm just trying to change it so that a small line of text appears under each thumbnail. Each line of text is pulled from the XML file and is created using createtextfield. But after a few hours trying to warp the code to get it to work I still haven't gotten anywhere.I've tried many different approaches of attaching these text fields to the mc but no go. These two lines do create a text field for each thumb-but these fields do not scroll with the thumbnails. I'd like these text fields to be inside the "thumbnail_mc" clip so that when the thumbnails scroll the text moves along with it.

this.createTextField("price"+k,k,0+(k*150),0,200,2 0);
this["price"+k].text = price[k];

View 8 RepliesAnywho im trying to add thumnails to a gallery of mine. Everything works fine untill i put all the symbols in a movieclip. When i do that the scroller stops working but everything else works fine!
The tutorial im working from is: [URL]

im currently trying to use this script to create a little thumbnail gallery: [URL]first off my main flash file has 2 movie clips in, an empty on which an image will be loaded into and one with a navigation menu on.now within the navigation there is a button which will load an external swf into that same movie clip. This loaded swf contains the "Complex Button" my problem is that i dont know how to (or if it is possible) to use these buttons to load a jpg into the empty movie clip on the main timeline im guessing it has something to do with:
Code:
this.onRelease = function(){
getURL("http://www.kirupa.com","_blank");
}
but i have tried a couple of things and havent been able to work it out as im still a bit of a n00b with actionscript.
what im trying to do is, when you click on the large image or on a button it open this image in a pop-up.What they say on the sitec. Optional: you can assign a clickHandler to the large pictures for enabling pop-ups or download options:
01 function clickMe(id) {
02 //get imagenode for this thumbnail
03 //'id' counts from 1, XML counts from 0: hence the '-1'

I have completed the excellent Flash Thumbnail Gallery Tutorial (and the Picture gallery Tutorial). I have been able to update the dynamic text content, and basically customize the look and feel of the .swf. That works when I upload it to my website.My problem is that neither in Preview mode (via Flash) nor once uploaded to my website can I get my XML file to call my own images up. It will call the tutorial images from Kirupa if I leave them in there.
I have tried to use relative and absolute file paths for the image URL, and neither is working. I even tried using "image ID=" tags inside the node, to no avail. I have an image directory that is a few folders deep, so I tried putting the XML, FLA and SWF (all together) in different places, updating the SWF on my html page, and then republishing. In the place where my image should be, there is nothing.Flash reports an error when I hit CTRL+Enter that it cannot find those particular files.
I'm encountering a weird glitch when I try to use a more complex image border: the image container and the text caption both jump into place at the last moment. A bad effect. All I've done is add two more variables, "w2" and "w3" to the code:
Code:
var w = container._width+spacing, h = container._height+spacing;
var w2 = container._width+space2, h2 = container._height+space2;
var w3 = container._width+space3, h3 = container._height+space3;
border.resizeMe(w, h, id);
border2.resizeMe(w2, h2, id);
border3.resizeMe(w3, h3, id);
The only way I can find to keep the border shapes in correct proportion is to create 3 different border clips and apply the "resizeMe" easing function to each of them.
I've been watching a tutorial on making a thumbnail photo gallery with Flash. Unfortunately the only tutorial I could find that explained everything step by step was for Flash MX and I'm using Flash CS4. It seems that the scripting code is different. I've never written Flash script before. I am trying at this point to give a rollover effect to a thumbnail image, so when the mouse goes over the thumbnail the thumbnail will get brighter. The code given in the tutorial didn't work, but by looking at the debugger messages it seems like the script should be something like:[code]I converted the thumbnail to a button symbol and then created an instance of the button called thumb1. The code is applied to a keyframe.

I've created a scrolling thumbnail gallery that draws images from a blog feed. I would like for it to loop itself after all the thumbs have gone through so the first image of the 2nd loop is immediately after the last image of the 1st loop.
View 6 RepliesI recently decided I was going to feel my way through Flash and learn it on my own, so here I am. But I need some assistance. I am modifying this tutorial for my needs, but unfortunately the dimensions of the pictures I am using aren't the same as the ones here. I thought the code would still function the same way, but alas.. no. Anyway, is there any way to 'universalize' the code or could someone explain which attributes I would have to alter to fit different image dimensions?
