ActionScript 2.0 :: PHP Or PHP/XML To Drive Gallery Contents?
Mar 2, 2006
I've got myself a gallery which is generated from the contents of an XML file. (I just followed this excellent tut!)
I've decided that its too much hassle to update the XML file everytime a new image is added to the directory, so I'm thinking about using PHP to build the XML file. That means that going from PHP->XML->Flash. Can I just go straight from PHP->Flash? All I want to do is get a list of files in /directory_x. Are there any obvious benefits/drawbacks to either method?

I have just successfully displayed the contents of my 'gallery' xml in a grid layout to my stage. My issue is I have a fairly small area to work with and I need to put these inside a custom scroller. The custom scroller I have atm displays only text (via a TextField and URLLoader) from a txt file and I'm confused how to alter it to load my gallery images (from my xml) instead. Can I load images from the XML into the textfield? Is there an easier way of doing it.

I have used a gallery component from flashXML.net. The problem is that the component makes internal stage conflict between my project and the gallery component, witch is embedded in my flash. The gallery works perfect, but it makes the scaling of my site totally wrong when I go back from the gallery to the rest of the site. Now I have override the problem by putting this code:Code: Select allstage.scaleMode="showAll"; on the frame where the HOME-button in the gallery is jumping to. The only problem now is that the site is about 20% off center at the left side on some screen resolutions. How I can get all the content perfectly centered?

I have built a simple Flash application that will be presented using a projector, the application will show messages in the form of questions that will come from a simple flat-file text file or XML file.
In addition to this I would also like to be able to add my own messages using a simple HTML form.
I've been looking around the web for some resources, but have been struggling to find what I am looking for. The basic idea is that the flash application will loop through these different messages from the XML, but then when a user types in a message that will also appear within these messages. Think of it as a sort of dynamic tag cloud.

I'm customizing an xml flash website and while I can handle all the html and xml well enough, but in Flash, I have no clue how to:
Now go on the stage, and delete the contents of the last layer(background & pattern). Here, add from the library, the square movieclip, and name it mcBackColor(see attached image).And then to add your swf background in the "background & pattern" layer from the main.fla file.
I can change the name, but don't know how to delete just the contents of the layer and then add the new clip.I've made a slideshow before and that's all I can do.

We recently upgraded our network to Leopard and Flash to CS3,and since then, I can't publish to a network drive.The reason I need to do this is that we're on a network where all our project files are on the server, and we work directly from the server. With previous versions of Flash and the system, I was able to work on a Flash file on the server and publish or test to the same place. Now I need to copy my flash file to my local
computer in order to publish or test.If I try, I get this error: "Error creating Flash movie file.Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive.Also, check that the file name is not too long." Neither of those are the case.

I need to make a flash located on the internet load a swf from user's PC/network. Essentially, make it so that "myrandomsite.com/main.swf" can load "U: andomfolderinfo.swf".
I tried using cross domain policies but that didn't help (of course I've never used them before so I'm not entirely sure how they work). And I'm not well versed with Javascript but I am willing to try. I'm trying to do is have a .swf from C: read files from U:

We have an Adobe Air application. Now we'll make DVD's an ship them to potential clients. How can I be certain that the client can open this .air file if they don't have adobe Air installed? Also I saw that Mac's often wanna open .air files in applescript(also if Air is installed).
I know that there are install badge. But I think they don't work with local .air files. Or is there a way to install a local .air with a badge?

I got a complete package of creative suite cs4. Even though I didnot want to install additional components such as Adobe Bridge, Adobe Drive, etc. They got installed with the package. Now I have CS5 available, and I don't want these to keep occupy the disk space, atleast not CS4.
How can I uninstall these components, I don't really use them too. I looked into my Control Panel, but there is no option to uninstall them. I am using Windows 7.

I was looking into a readymade flash CS4 project. It's kind of slideshow for some photos. I wanted to modify the Action Script in order to use the pictures in my computer's hard drive.
The code that has been used there in that project is something like
var gal_uno_uno="http://infernotech.co.cc/meracup.jpg";
var gal_uno_unoth= "http://infernotech.co.cc/meracup.jpg";
var gal_uno_dos="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1073/756274318_d3bc6b17c9.jpg";
var gal_uno_do= "http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1073/756274318_d3bc6b17c9_s.jpg";
var gal_uno="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/217/485076305_fb0eb729e9.jpg";
but, I don't want to specify the url of the images. Instead I want to pick up these images from my hard drive.

I'm running Flash CS4/AS 2.0 on Mac OS X. I keep my work files on a flash drive. One of these FLA files is a parent (container) movie that, when compiled, results in a SWF that is 6,983 bytes.
I saved a copy of the FLA source file to the Desktop, recompiled, and the SWF size was only 1,773 bytes (much better, since the movie only has a static preloader and some ActionScript).
I'm guessing this is because Flash has to copy some default class information(?) to compile the movie because the source file and Flash CS4 are on different drives.
Do I need to copy the class files to the external drive and map to that path in Preferences?

I've have flash cs3 installed on my computer at home and flash mx 2004 installed on my school pc. I like to take my projects home with me to work on, the only problem is when I take the fla back to school they won't work on mx. I cant update the school's flash since I dont have admin privileges to install programs and I can't make an mx fla at home.
My question is: Would it be possible to copy the entire 300mb flash cs3 onto a 8gb flash drive and run it on the school's computer or is it even possible to run a program that large and complicated from a flash drive?

In all previous versions of flash I have been able to use "geturl" on a button and pull up a pdf in a local directory on my computer. Now with CS5, the same code pulls up a webpage and actually tries to go to a url. Is there a new way in CS5 to open a pdf on my local drive?

I've just been approached my current project needs to run from a CD and write data (bookmarking) to the hard drive. Been told the file will still launch from a html document and not AIR. Orginally had it built in AIR, no problem writing data. I remembered what I thought was a SharedObject but that does not sound right for writing out the data. Which is an xml file I am building from the student login.
Since I can't use AIR is there another function someone knows for writing a file to a location on the hard drive? Time is pressing on this one. I have to have an answer by morning.

I got a Windows Flash Projector (.exe) that I need to autorun from a USB drive. I just want the user to be able to plug in the USB drive to their machine and have it start running without any menus. I've been using the following with no luck:
[autorun]
open=KSF_USB_main.exe
The project is composed of a number of .swf files that load into the "KSF_USB_main.swf" file. There are also PDF and FLV links within some of the movies. I have the "autorun.inf" file and all other files (including the .exe Projector file) on the USB drive. When I plug it in to a PC it brings up the "What Do You Want To Do?" window and doesn't autorun.

I'm considering making a Flex/AS3 based web application but worrying about some employers (i.e. potential customers) that don't have access to Flash plug in version 9 and up. Why? Maybe their corporate standard for browser is old; maybe they lock down employees computers which prevents users to download and install the plug-in or an alternate browser; maybe Flash's ubiquity goes away in the next 3 years given Adobe's recent announcements; etc.Anyway, my question is, would it be possible to insert a USB Flash drive into the client computer in question and run a Browser having flash (e.g. chrome) on the USB drive (assuming such a browser has already been installed on the USB drive), to access the web application with full functionality? I'm just trying to think of workarounds if my customer doesn't have flash plug-in and can't download to install it.
