View 2 RepliesI want to make Flash Gallery like this: [URL]. I think it is Dynamic and pics are showing through xml.
View 2 RepliesI downloaded a flash spread gallery [URL]which uses a xml file to designate the pics to be used. It is very cool but it is kind of a pain as I have to manually type each pic name in the xml file. Is there a way that I can modify either the xml or the fla to just pull the pics from a folder? Maybe two folders one for the pics and one for the thumbs?
I would like to just dump a bunch of pics in a folder and their thumbs in another and have it automatically just post them.Attached is the fla and the xml (and a .js file) zipped.flashmo_185_spread_gallery.flaflashmo_185_photo_list.zip
I am using the kirupa xml foto gallery and I am loading different sized images... if they would load nicely centered the problem is solved... (not to stage width/height..!!) The movieclip "picture" has to load the images centered from its own registration point so that it can be placed anywhere on the stage.... now its loads the images from aka left top...
[Code]....
ActionScript Code:
import flash.filters.GlowFilter;
import flash.filters.DropShadowFilter;
_global.gallerynum=1;
[code]....
There are 3 pics each in FASHION SPORTS and BEAUTY catergory and 10 and 5 in ENTERTAINMENT and COVERS respectively. All is ok but when i click on FASHION or other categories having less pics the pics from the earlier categories ( e.g. ENTERTAINMENT ) wont leave the stage. Also the unLoadGallery() function is giving an error message that ' This code is making flash to run slower. Would you like to stop this script?'.
i have just posted an online photo gallery and its the kind that resizes to fit whatever photo you tell it to load. you can see it at URL...in anycase, my problem, is that for some reason when you try to load pics 018 - 030 they refuse to load, and i can't figure out why? URL...
View 1 RepliesI'm trying with the XML photo gallery presented in the [URL] tutorial. This is set up to display 1 picture at a time , but what if I want to display 2 pics next to each other, like in a table stucture with 1 row divided into 2 columns? How do I set up the XML to do something like that?

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a photo gallery that loads the pics in as swf's, and was wondering if there was any way for flash to detect the number of files that are in a particular folder on website (also the names of those files).
View 3 RepliesI've finally finished my flash xml gallery, and have tested it to my complete satisfaction using dreamweaver. When I do a preview from dreamweaver, or just open up the gallery html file from explorer the swf loads the xml file and all the images flawlessly, everything works. However when I move the site for testing on my mac laptop it loads the xml file but not the images. When I upload it to my test website it doesn't even load the xml file. I just copied the root folder over in all cases I dont understand why it wont work. You can see it here: [URL]
Could this be some export setting I am using incorrectly? Why would it work locally on a windows machine, and not locally on a mac or online on either. I tried re exporting the swf after saving it as CS3 from CS4 and changing the local playback security to only allow network. So now it loads the xml data online but not locally. Thumbnails still aren't showing up online though.
i am loading all thumbs and images in a container on a single frame using action script..but the size of the swf becomes 1.2 mb so i want to add a loader to it. the loader i am trying to add counts the frames but my file has just one frame so the loader doesnot show up..
here is the script of my gallery..and the timeline has just one frame...
[Code].....
i cannot seem to find any tutorial around this... when i click the next button, a new photo begins preloading (showing a loadbar or similar) *WHILE* the current photo is still in sight... after loading is complete loadbar and current photo fade out and the new photo fades-in in glorious color... something like the one used in [URL]

View 1 RepliesI am trying to make a simple count up flash project. I am still very new to flash. But I've done count ups before. It took me awhile but I finally got rid of ALL the errors, but yet the dynamic text I have setup is not showing anything.
Code:
var today:Date = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();
var currentTime = today.getTime();
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2010,9,18);
var targetTime = targetDate.getTime();

I have an image gallery that loads images and swf-files from an XML-file. The .jpg's load and display just fine, but the .swf files won't show. The data is loaded though. My XML file looks like this:

I am having an issue with my photo gallery thumbs not showing up.When you first land on the page the thumnails do not appear with the flash photo gallery. However, if you refresh the page, they show up.
XML loading code frame 1
Code:
photo_filename = new Array();
photo_thumbnail = new Array();
photo_description = new Array();
[code]....
first I had:
maskedImg = getChildByName("current") as MovieClip;
maskedImg.mask = mymask;
and everything worked properly. Then I removed the movieclip from the scene, exported it to Actionscript, and changed the code to
maskedImg = new mymovieclip();
addChild(maskedImg);
maskedImg.mask = mymask;
and now I don't see anything on the scene. If I comment out the line assigning the mask I can see the movieclip although. The mask is created dynamically in both cases.
I have created an image gallery that loads from an XML file using mostly previous Kirupa threads. From Scotty's code (I think -- my head is moosh now) I got numbered buttons for navigating between the images.Each button is a movie clip with different labeled frames for "up", "active", "hover", and "down" states. I'd like to have the numbered button change color when its image is on view and then change back when a different image loads, and I can't figure out how to do that. I know part of the problem is that the onRollOut function overrides other changes, so I'm willing to give up the rollover effect if necessary.[code]

View 1 RepliesFirst of all congratulations for you all who made this forum the best Flash Forum, as you can see this is my first post and I have a doubt about a Flash+XML gallery. Presently I'm working in a simple website for a car seller. The offers section is composed of two main parts. First part is a clip (MC_AllCars) where is dynamically loaded "thumbnail + description" for each car found in the XML file. I get this with a couple of "for" loops. With this loops I read and extract the data, and then I put it with attachMovie in a movieClip used as template. This part isn't difficult to develop, but second is more difficult (for a newbie actionscripter like me).
The second part is other movierClip (MC_CarDetails) working as another template. In this template would be loaded all the car details It would be like this:
