I'm trying to load the content of a XML file, that name is the same of the fla or swf file. By example, if my swf names "quiz.swf", I want that ActionScript loads a xml file with name "quiz.xml". So in this way many swf files can co-exist in the same folder and look for different xml files without conflict.

View 1 RepliesI recently made a website and the links for the main page do not seem to link properly to their rightful pages when I put the site online (but it does work well when Im just testing the site on my computer in my Flash program) I know that the website I made is very large - so I was wondering if that could be a reason for why the pages don't load properly - also one of the pages links to another site and although that seems to work on my swf when I play it in my Flash player - it doesn't work when I put it online-
Finally my sound quality is not that great for the site. The songs are in mp3 format - would it be better to make them .wav files?
Or are all these problems related and its just that my computer does not have enough power to convert this massive flash website into a proper swf file? If this is my problem. What do I do?
The site that I made is [URL]

View 1 RepliesIf you compile a Flash project into a .swf file and that project refers to another .swf file, is it linked statically or dynamically? That is, is the second .swf file contained physically in the first .swf file or does the first .swf file refer to the second at run-time?

I have an XML doc that was exported from FileMaker Pro that I need to read into flash to get the variables from. The XML doc is laid out like this (shortened for brevity):
<FMPXMLRESULT>
<ERRORCODE>0</ERRORCODE>
<PRODUCT BUILD="06-20-2006" NAME="FileMaker Pro"/>
<DATABASE DATEFORMAT="M/d/yyyy"/>
[code]....
It keeps telling me a term is undefined and has no properties. This I've isolated to the backgroundArray.push statement. Just not sure how to fish the data out of that XML doc properly. What call would I use to iterate thru the different ROW tags to get to the DATA info?
I have a dynamic textbox in flash called vt. It has attached to it the following in a class file:
vt.text = xml.video.@vt[cv];
and pulls the information from an XML File:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<playlist>
<video src='videos/video1.flv' vt='abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'/>
</playlist>
Now for some reason only the letters a d g i l n o will actually display when tested with all the alphabet above.
UPDATE: Solved - Just needed to change the textbox AA to Use Device Fonts :) (New user cant answer my own question)
When loading a file on PC, the location looks like this:
[Code]...
Is there a good work-around for this? Something short of adding a variable for the slash character that changes when a different OS is found? Also, I load XML that has links in it, so changing the links on the fly after they're loaded would be great.
Here is the code I have and the flash file runs for about 10to 15 mins then stops updating from the dynamically created xmlfile and just hangs displaying undefined. Is there something wrongwith my code? The only way to clear it out is close the app andrestart it but that leads me to believe its a caching problem. Butbelow i did use some ideas about dynacially loading and unloadingthe content to stop the caching problem. I am not great at actionscript and only understand a little.

View 1 RepliesI'm writing an app that I want to ideally pull a random entry from a txt file. Each row of the txt document has 12 separate entries. When I use LoadVariables to read the file, I get the entire file. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to parse the individual lines.
I have so many questions I don't know where to begin...
First, do I need to use varName= in front of each item in the text file? Second, does flash anything that will allow you to read a file by line, then parse based on tab delimiters? Third, should I be using something besides loadVariables to retrieve data, or should I be using something besides a txt document?
this will get me started, but there is still the matter of randomly selecting a line in the txt document.
I would like to know if it's possible to tie Flash into physical devices, so the display is of course flash, but underlying input is from a physical device. Such as metal detector, water gauge, battery voltage, etc.
