ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Load Specific Childnode From XML File
May 27, 2009
im working on a flash file where im loading a title, description and image from an xml file.
im using this tutorial from Kirupa [URL] and have everything working fine. my only problem is I can't seem to figure out how to load a specific childnode when clicking a button. right now when the user clicks a button, it loads the next or previous childnode using this code
Key.addListener(listen);
previous_btn.onRelease = function() {
prevImage();
[Code]....
is there any way to target a specific childnode within the xml file? im using Flash CS3 AS2

I have seven movieclips that I want to load individual ChildNode information into from an XML file. Is there a way to pass that XML info into individual MovieClips for each individaul ChildNode?
Here's the code I have so far.
var myXML:XML;
var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();myLoader.load(new URLRequest("links.xml"));myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, processXML);function processXML(e:Event):void {myXML = new XML(e.target.data);trace(myXML.*);}

I've been working on a flash presentation for work. It's pretty much a mini-site with links to PDF's files and DOCS for distributors. I am feeding everything from an XML file so we can easily update this presentation for our other products.
I've run into a problem on the last part of this swf and I can't seem to get the proper syntax to get this working properly. I am looping through the childNodes and creating MC and filling with data. I can loop through the first set of childNodes no problem. But its when one of these first set childNodes has a set of childNodes itself, I cant pair up that data with it's parent on the flash movie.
So here's my XML:
Code:
<page title="KIT CONTENTS">
<documents>
<doc title="Patient Instructions" file="pdf/patient_inst.pdf">Patient instructions

The title of my main file is "Gabriel96.fla". Inside this file I have a movie clip called "home movie". Inside this movie clip i have a button called "Symbol 32". Once this button gets clicked, I'd like it to go to frame "joe" which is inside a movie clip called "porrtfolio", which inside a separate file called "portfolio55.swf".

I'm actually creating a pretty simple banner that needs to stay under 40k size. I'm trying to load and unload an external .swf to my main swf file. So far, I only managed to load my external .swf, without finding a way to make it appear and disappear at specific frames (the external .swf shows up directly at frame 1, then when the animation loops over, it stacks over and over).
I read some things about onEnterFrame and counters but still wasn't able to solve my issue.
Here's my actual code. It makes the "horse.swf" file (located in the same folder as my main swf) fades in into my main swf after it has been loaded.
By the way, I used The LoaderMax system from greensock. because it seemed lighter and easier to manage than the native Adobe Loader one.
Code:
import com.greensock.*;
import com.greensock.loading.*;
import com.greensock.events.LoaderEvent;

Basically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code:
//About Us Button
function test2(evt:Event):void{

I have a combobox and list component on the stage. The combobox has 3 selections. How do I get it so that each selection triggers the specific xml file to load into the list component? I can't get them to communicate to each other.

I'm trying to work with XML in flash here and ran into an issue. I need to collect all the nodes in an XMLList that contains a certain childnode with a certain value. For example, from the XML below I just want to get the ''product'' nodes that have 1 as a value for ''amount'', i.e product 3 and 5.
And it's not a typo for product 3... ;(
<xml>
<product>
<title>Product 1</title>
<amount>4</amount>

im trying to write a handfull of XML functions in AS2.0 and im trying to find a way of getting flash to detect the number of attributes in a childNode. <item name="aaron" location="sydney" sex="male"/> as in finding out how many of these ^ there are in each item.
how I would do this? I've tried for...in... statements and even trying to access them as objects i.e. ...ode[0].attributes["name"] but it never works - I always have to hard code...ode[0].attributes.name to get the value. im sure theres a way to do this, there has to be a way.

I have created a dynamic textfield which loads several text nodes from an xml file by using a for loop. How can I set each text node to load a specific swf? Does the eventListener need to be applied on the whole textfield or is it possible to add it depending on which xml text node is clicked?

Is there a way to use an loadMovieNum code at the beginning of a frame and make it load at a specific x and y coordinate? When I use this code it doesn't work...
[AS]
loadMovieNum("bodyline.swf", 5);
this._x = 43.3;
this._y=130;
[/AS]
It changes the coordinates of the main background image, not the position of the movie it just loaded. I tried something like this....
[AS]
loadMovieNum("bodyline.swf", 5);
"bodyline.swf"._x = 43.3;
"bodyline.swf"._y=130;
[/AS]

I have a SWF loading in right now, however it loads to the stages x:0 and y:0. Here's my code:
function craDone(e:Event):void {
trace("LOAD");
TweenLite.to (portfolioBucket_mc, 0.5, {x:-831, alpha:0, ease:Back.easeIn});
addChild(l);
}
How do I tell it to load to a certain Y position. The x doesn't really matter because x:0 is good.

Firstly can I apologise if I'm asking something completely obvious... it driving me crazy.
I have an swf called "branding.swf" which has a movieclip (movie_mc) and a button (save_btn)
Once you press save_btn it loads another swf "summary.swf" which also has a movieclip "form_mc". Within "form_mc" there is another movieclip "loader_mc" and some dynamic text fields.
All this happens within a standalone exe "main.exe" and is loaded into "clips_mc)
Is it possible (surely it must be) to take the contents of movie_mc and display it within "loader_mc".
Basically, I want to do a loadMovie but instead of calling "branding.swf" I want it to only load "movie_mc" which is within "branding_swf"

I have a gallery set up with three primary images. Clicking a primary image brings up it's specific subset of alternate views for the product.
I've managed to get the loading and placement down as I need it, but the images are not loading in the correct order. I've tried several solutions, the current one is that an array of each Sub Image is processed in order. It looks kinda of sloppy but image 1 loads, and when image 1 is complete, image 2 loads. After each image loads, it is put into another array. This array is used to resize and place the files. However when I do so, instead of the placement order being
item[0]
item[1]
item[2]
item[3]
item[4]
it keeps ending up like this:
item[4]
item[2]
item[1]
item[3]
item[0]
Here is the relevant code. When the following function starts with sArray, the items are confirmed to be in order.
Code:
function loadSubs(e:MouseEvent):void//LOAD SUBD
{
clearGallery();

I am loading an external swf into the mc 'image' using: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 1);
Every time a new image loads, I want it to load the level above, ie: image.loadMovieNum("portfolio/100_design/1.swf", 2); Is there a way this can be done dynamically. For example, "current level + 1"

In my photo gallery, I have an array of images that load sequentially using 'next' / 'prev' buttons. The code fades out the current swf, recognises when the new external swf has fully loaded, then fades in:
this.pathToPics = "portfolio/100_design/";
this.pArray = ["1.swf", "2.swf", "3.swf", "4.swf"];
this.fadeSpeed = 40;
