I am having problems formatting the XML Flash photo gallery. I can't seem to get the photos to center on the page. Some of my photos are vertical and others horizontal, and they are all pushed to the left. I don't want to make all the photos the same width. Is there any way to use css to style the xml? Or is there some other way to do it? Url...Also, if anyone notices any other problems with the gallery,please let me know. This is only the second thing I've done in Flash, and I may have made some mistakes when I changed things.
View 14 RepliesI found this photo gallery on kirupa but i need it to loop and i can't figure it out. It stops on the 7th image and doesn't go back to the first.
View 4 RepliesI tried the tuto from Kirupa for photo gallery and xml .I modified the xml file with my own pictures.( I copied it and added the path to them)But when I try the swf this message appears :
Error opening URL "file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/user/Desktop/divers%20flas%20et%20swfs/undefined".
Here is an example of one of my xml picture nod :
- <images>
- <pic>
[code]....
This of course means that the image 1.jpg is in folder allimages which is in the folder divers flas et swfs.So why this undefined message ? Is it a wrong path ?
Note : I work with flash 8.
I've been trying to add more galleries the Kirupa Photo Gallery but so far unsuccessfull - i've modified things alittle, but it's mostly the same.
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
image = [];[code].....
This is as far as i can get before i get errors i cant get out by displaying image[i] in gallery[n].at the current time i can only get the number of galleries and display the images in the first gallery - not change between galleries.
I wanna remove the XML data loading part and replace it with a PHP/MySQL backend for better security and maintance and because XML text handling isnt the best way (in my opinion it s*cks big time) to show text. HTML text through php gives better looking text.What do I already have:- MySQL database and table (containing the fields: "file", "ordercode", description") were "file" is the full path to a image and its name.- PHP script what fetches the data from the table and send it towards FlashFlash output when receiving the array ("nog niet te koop" = ordercode, "tekst volgt nog" = description)
Variabele _level0.myData = [objectnr. 1, klasse 'LoadVars'] {
onLoad:[functie 'onLoad'],
Array

I am building a photo gallery for a friend using Kirupa's tutorial (located here: [URL]). The gallery is working out great except for one problem and that is using the keyboard left and right button. For some reason when I press the right arrow on the keyboard to go the next image it jumps to the third image, then the 5th, 7th, 9th etc. As you can see it keeps skipping one image, the same thing happens going backwards. However, when I use the onscreen previous/next buttons it cycles through just fine.
View 1 RepliesI'm using Kirupa's Flash MX Photo Gallery located at [URL].When the script calls the images it's going to use, it says:
// fill this array with your pics
this.pArray = ["image0.jpg", "image1.jpg", "image2.jpg", "image3.jpg", "image4.jpg", "image5.jpg", "image6.jpg", "image7.jpg", "image8.jpg", "image9.jpg"];
How can I call these images' names from a simple external text file? Purpose: I want to have the ability to change the photos in the gallery quickly without tweaking the Flash file.
Does any of the code need to be changed in the photo gallery tutorial to make it function inside of a movie clip? I'm specifically wondering in regards to the "_root" My gallery is in a movie clip which I can't seem to get working w/attatchMovie though all my others work fine.
View 3 RepliesI have created a Photo Gallery based on the excellent tutorial, the only thing I would like to add is Numbers to the Thumbnails.
I assume I would need to use the attachMovie command but I am not sure of the Syntax and where it would be used in the Photo Gallery code.
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...

Just trying to make a flash photo gallery that displays all the image files in a certain directory with the usual photo gallery functionality.
View 1 Repliesits for a photo gallery that I downlowded,the images fades in and out, but only start that when you click a button(timer).I'm trying to founf out where in the script I can change this, so that the photo's start automatically,rather than, on a button click.I have pasted the script below, is that ok, or would people rather a zip file of the files?

I have an XML photo gallery, that when it starts it has a loader for the photos. It always starts with the XML file determined sequence, which is fine, but what happens is that the tabs on the right hand side of the photo loader go astray while it is loading the first photo. If the first photo was loaded instantly this wouldnt be an issue.Is there a way that I can preload that first photo, so that it is in memory when the swf file reads the XML file, allowing the first photo to be instantly loaded ?Amongst other things, I tried embedding the photo in the swf file, but it didnt work...obviously I have no idea what to script...I also created another scene, prior to the main scene, to preload the photo.. but it didnt work either, again probably used useless script...Going further in detail, this is the main script:
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;
ZigoEngine.simpleSetup(Shortcuts, PennerEasing);

I have been searching for a particular photo gallery, and haven't got far. Here is an example of what I am looking for. With the example I wanting the user to be able to click on a photo for it to appear in the box above. I am looking for a tutorial, so I can customise to fit in my client's flash website.
View 2 Replies downloaded an xml photo gallery that is displayed through a swf.
What I want to do is load that external swf into another swf - but everytime I do it gives me a #1009 error. I know my code works - because it loads regular swfs, and I know I have the address right, because I direct it to an exact url location.
I have done a photo gallery using the following code. However, I need the first picture to appear as the movieclip is loaded. What shall I introduce to this script? Or what would I have to change?
myPhoto = new XML();
myPhoto.ignoreWhite = true;
myPhoto.onLoad = function(success) {
//portfolioTag = this.firstChild;

I'm new at actionscripting althought not new to flash. I tried creating the photo gallery using the code that is posted here on [URL]. But it doesn't seem to load. I've been using Flash 5, (I'm more comfortable using 5) and I don't know if it makes a difference. But I also tried it on MX and it didn't seem to load with MX either. I don't know if I'm messing up on the dir for the images or what have you, but most of the time I get nothing when I preview it, other times my image frames pops up for a split second. Here's what I've what I've done
[Code].....
I was taking a look at this great site at the link interior Design. How it's done that gallery? I noticed that the pictures are loaded in order, before they are asked to be shown. When the user clicks on the number of the image, it has already been loaded by the swf.
View 5 Replies[URL]. It's a tutorial that shows how to create a photo gallery and load the pictures and comments via XML. My problem is the following, the gallery and everything works well, but I when I try to load it into a container then everything messes up. Here's what I have: I have a main movie (the main .swf file) with a container in it, when clicking on one of the buttons from that movie the gallery.swf loads into the container (the gallery is the exact gallery from the tutorial) and it works well, until I press the button to load it again.
It seems that it messes up the value of "p". I tried tracking it, on the first load it tracks normally p=1, 2, 3, 4.... but on the second load it reacts as if it's double tracking it p=0 1, 2 2, 3 3, 2 4 ... It seems that Flash somehow keeps the old value of "p" in mind. I tried reseting it somehow or something but I can't seem to make it work (or maybe I have to rebuild the whole thing?).
It works perfectly if I load it only once but if I load the gallery.swf twice or more times then it goes crazy (or since I have more buttons on the stage, after pressing one and coming back to the gallery, it does the same, it's messed up). How can I "reset" the value of 0 on every load or something? I even tried playing around with unloadMovie but can't figure out how to use it.
A couple days I started a topic about how to load a folder of pictures into a flash movie(photo gallery).
With some tutorials I almost got it but something is not working very good.The images are displayed to big. They apear out of the box they should be in.
I dont know where to look anymore... is there someone that can take a look at my files?
I will attach them in a .zip file. (the "img" map is empty because the file was to big)
I'm trying to modify Kirupa's xml photo slideshow by adding an extra text field, which if I understand correctly gives each element 3 children (image+text1+text2) instead of 2 (image+text). Even though I've added the third child correctly in the xml, I can't seem to get it to work at all. Here is what I did with the actionscript:
delay = 10000;
//-----------------------
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {

I've highlighted the parts I've added to the code provided by kirupa's tutorial. sub_text is the instance name I give to the new text field in Flash.
I am using CS4 with AS 3.0... I want to implement both a freeware photo flash gallery and mp3 audio player that I found into my all-Flash website. Both of these require reading from an xml file to get their content. They both come with html embedding instructions, but I don't know about actionscript.

[Code]...
how to add a sort of timer for the slideshow...one that counts down from fx 6 seconds to 0 every time a new image in the slideshow appears. something with a variable and a text area...but how to make the count down follow the image delay...i really would like to know if this is possible.
View 3 RepliesI am customizing the Photo slide show with thumbnails from this site. It is great. I was able to customize it so it would work with bigger pics (640 width X 480 height) basically wider pics then they are tall, but I also have pics that are taller then they are wide (480 height X 640 width).
1. in the thumbnail area the taller pics load over top of the pic before it and then there is a large gap after it.
2. the movie clip that loads the full size image aligns the pics to the upper left corner of the movie clip. I would like it to center the taller pic. I know I will have the same problem with the wider pics when I make the viewing area 640x640 they will look to high.
here is the code that is used:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];

I'm having some problems with the XML/FLASH Photo Gallery Tutorial ([URL]). When I load the swf file into another movie the dynamic text will not display. Any thoughts to why this is happening.
