ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Images Using Text File (to Specify Path)
Oct 16, 2004
if i have a text field which is loading text from an external txt file and is HTML enabled, can I use <img> tags to load an image? If not, is there an equivalent?
which after a lot of looking ticked all my boxes for a gallery tutorial, the only problem is that is not finding my images when I change the url location in the tut xml to the root location of my images.
I have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?
i have banner with 5 images fad in fade out effecti need to load images & test from external file " text file or xml file " with keeping fade effects on imagesall ways i know can't keep fading effect on images so
I have a text file in the same directory as the flash and a text dynamic box with name: news, var: news. I need to load into it the text file news.txt. The dynamic box is inside other MCs so when I do this command on root-actions layer I get this inside the text box: _level0.instance 10.instance12.scrolledMC.news.The command I use is simple but i dont know to how to put the correct path into it: loadVariablesNum("news.txt", 0);
I am sure this is fairly simple but I just can't get it to work. I am pretty sure it is because of my lack of knowledge in AS 3 and something to do with my variable. Anyway here are the two snippets hopefully someone can make sense of it
I keep getting a Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found. even though I have quadruple-checked my pathways.I have read through all the posts I could find but still no dice.the problem as 3 is-
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("general2005.xml"); var urlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader(); urlLoader.load(urlRequest);
I'm more Graphically inclined so bare with me. I need to dynamically load images from an XML file and I usually find badly written tutorials that I can't understand or I find a .fla but don't understand the code in it.
im making somekind of an imageloader flash files, with a next and previous button, and a square to load the *.jpg file, and another square to put a description text. how if i want to give a description text using a *.txt file who has the same name as the image file? how to tell flash to display texts inside a textfile in a square?
I'm trying to load all the images to display on the stage from an xml file.I am also trying to add them onto the stage using the Bitmap class. This is where I am having trouble. I am using the Bitmap class so I can use their width and height.Right now I'm only able to see one image on stage when I use the Bitmap class. If I don't use the Bitmap class and just addChild(iconLoader) inside the loop in the xmlLoaded function I can see all of the images. But I want to use the Bitmap class.
I am rearranging a flash by adding more picture. By default it was 8 pictures but I want to add unlimited number of pictures on XML file and want to load them in Flash. The XML file is parsed into an array (code provded below). I can not figure out the problem as the flash shows only the default 8
pictures, not showing the additional pictures that i have added. I was hoping someone here can help me in taking the parsed XML file and help me load the image
into the movie clip. Also I want to redirect all the Rotate Picture (3d-carousel-menu) links to the Flash
picture showing state. I mean all the carousel-menu links will be linked to image showing stage.[code]...
where I can find a tutorial for a scroll bar and the content you are scrolling is loaded from a html file? I saw one where you can do it with a .txt file but you cant put images on it, so do you know if it is possible to load the content from a html file with images?

I have the folowing codo to load text from a text file into a text field in my flash document:
loadVarsText = new loadVars(); loadVarsText.load("homePage.txt"); loadVarsText.onLoad = function(success) {
[Code]....
the same, and I want to make the homePage.txt file load when the flash file starts, that is what it does right now by placing the code on the main timeline.
A few days ago I manage to modify a code I get from a post here. The file was from tommywizbang[URL]It works fine, but at the end I have the idea of use HTML format to load images on the text block. The idea works fine with static text, but in this code is not working and I'm not sure if it is because of the original AS2...
i want to load variable from text file to my main movie (swf file).what should i put in the second parameter of the function loadVariables ("target" parameter) - should i insert _this? _parent? _global? (nothing works.
I have a big problem - I decided to make a website using flash as I am good with photoshop and thought it would be fairly easy to construct in flash using tutorials. All went well except now the website is published, weird things happen. The homepage works fine but when you click on "portfolio" some of the buttons don't appear and when you try the buttons, some images don't appear. Occasionally some of the buttons take you to the wrong place also. When I test the movie in flash, everything works fine so I can't work it out. I am a complete novice so advice will have to be spelt out in black and white.

I'm using Flash 8 and I'm trying to load new text into a dynamic text box already populated by a xml file.
I have a home page with 5 different buttons on the top menu.
1. Home 2. News 3. Tips and a few more.
Upon my home page loading, I have a dynamic text box with the welcome text which is populated by my xml file, here is my code for AS2:
function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { _root.home = this.firstChild.childNodes[0].childNodes[0]; _root.tips = this.firstChild.childNodes[1].childNodes[0];
[Code].....
What I want to do is load the news and tips text into the same dynamic text box on the home page when the news or tips button is clicked, so I don't have to load a whole new swf for each category thus making the site faster.
What code would I have to use to clear the text from the xml file and how would I load my new text upon clicking the button?
I cant load and external text file into my dynamic text box...when i trace the loaded var it can be found, but when it's loaded inside the text box, the value that appears is really strange.i tried to load the vars into the MC and on a level, the result is the same, it can be traced but does not appear correctly on the textbox..the code i used is here..i made a text box with about_us instance name, loaded the variables and tried to load my text inside it by setting the text property of the textbox but as u will see...
