I am trying to add a button to every image loaded from an xml file, so that when the image is rolled over the button does something on top of it.
I have made the button and given it the linkage id of thumbOver.
[AS]
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
[Code]....
The thumbnails come up fine, but the button doesnt make a showing and i cannot see why not.
I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with this code:

I have a sample XML file with two images. If I remove either of the items from the XML, it everything displays fine, but with 2 items in the XML, the first item doesn't show an image, but the second does (maybe the first is being attached in a position behind the second?)
I have completed my first Flash 8 movie which has an invisible button the size of the image which Stop/starts the movie with AS toggle script below.
[CODE]...
Can this script be modified so that the movie fades to alpha zero a short time after the stop action, and the re-appears to play instantly when the play action is triggered?

I get the following message in the output panel:[code]I want the button to be disabled hen it gets to the first image thus stopping at the first image Or to the able to scroll through the images in reverse indefinitely just like the forward button - able to scroll through the images forward indefinitely.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have an mc "mc" that I made in flash. It has a text box in it with instance name "txt1". I dimmed a variable var mc:MovieClip = new mc() and used the add child method to add it to stage. Now I want to refer to the text box in the mc. I tried mc.getChildByName(txt1).text="abc" but it gives me errors. How do I refer to that text box.

I have a slideshow that loads image files with the BulkLoader class from here. When the first image is loaded completely, it gets added to a MovieClip container to add it to the stage.. and it gets displayed fullscreen, but only if a button is clicked:
fullScreenButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, showFull);
function showFull(e:MouseEvent):void {
stage.addChild(mcSlideHolder);
[Code]....
This works fine unless the fullScreenButton is clicked before the image is loaded completely, then of course nothing is visible. How do I get button click event that calls showFull() to wait until the image is loaded/added to the container or how can I add it again? What is a possible/the best approach?
I tried dispatching a custom event "firstImgAdd" that adds the image again to the container when the fullScreenButton is clicked, as well as with a try/catch block or even a simple if condition but none of them worked, meaning the image does not get added to the container after it has finished loading when the button is clicked too early.
I am trying to create a slideshow from a premade gallery script I found once. The reason for using it was its ease of use. However I have encountered some issues that I really want this slideshow to have.
1. Automatic Change to the next image with a Pause Button.2. Also I want to understand how the desc_text instance reads the <Caption> tags in the XML. I intend to have a Heading Option as well, but I can't seem to find a logical answer to do it.

Lets say I have a Flash project called main_file.swf, containing everything for my application including appr. 50 symbols (movieclips) containing graphical content for e.g. button backgrounds, box borders, scrollbar designs etc. - thus the complete 'skin' for the application.
I would, however, like to place the 50 symbols in an external .swf file - let's call this skin.swf. The idea being that the customer could design their own 'skin.swf' file, upload it to our server, and (depending on the user settings) load main_file.swf using the symbols/skin in their own skin.swf-file.
Right, get the challenge? I would like to - runtime - load skin.swf into main_file.swf (e.g. with loadClip()) and then attach the symbols from skin.swf's library in the content of main_file.swf.
However, it doesn't look like the approach above works. how to get the same effect by other means?
I have three movieclips (used as buttons) on my main MC. The following code swaps the depth of a dynamically loaded image the when I rollOver each movieclip (button). I want to put the button.rollOver code in a for loop so I dont have to repeat this code for every image loaded.

I have a Moiveclip in my library exported with the class of Circle. Inside that movieclip I have 3 nested clips, with instance names of arms, feet, eyes. These moviclips are to act as place holders for loaded images and are animated on the timeline.In the Main class I load in an image called image.gif and create a new instance of Circle passing the images to the constructor.I use addChild on the Main class to add the Circle to the stage. Inside of the Circle class I can use addChild and pass the BitmapData image. But I get a null reference when I try to use eyes.addChild but I can add it to the Circles display list with addChild fine.My question is can you add to a nested movieclips display list and if not what would be the best way to set this up?
View 5 RepliesI have a set-up a movie to dynamically load text from a text file. Now I realize that I want to attach live links to some of the urls in the text file. My question is can you attach the links in a text file by putting html tags in there or is it better to turn the text file into an XML file with the tags in there?Also can you attach CSS styles to that text file.. for instance in addition to adding links to the text I would also like to change the color of the text.
View 1 RepliesI'm doing a flash site and it is now in it's critical stage. I have a main movie where i have links to different different sections wich have been loaded usind loadMovie concept. Now i have one requiremnt to access to attach a movieclip from a externally loaded .swf . My problem also will be solved if i can access a purticular scene of a external swf or purticular frame( level) of the loaded .swf.
Note: I want to jump to a purticular frame of one externally loaded movie when i click on button in the _root movie.
I've used MovieClipLoader to load a movieclip into my holder. Everything works out fine, the mc loads and it's all good. But then, inside the loaded mc I use attachMovie to attach a movieclip from the library of the holder. It won't attach, but it will attach if I re-create the specific mc in the loaded mc's library. Does anyone know how to get around this?
View 1 Replieshow I can attach an image that's in the library to a movie on the stage...? I've tried using the attachMovie command. It looks straight forward enough, but I can't seem to get it to work.
- Have a Flash movie that has images 1.jpg, 2.jpg... 10.jpg in the library.
- I then want to be able to create a new version of the file and replace the images and have them automatically picked up in the resultant SWF. Currently, I'm having to open up the Flash file, edit each of the movies where the image is and replace the image. This can be time consuming.
Can you name a Sprite like a movie clip and then reference that to attach an image? Like:
myMovieClip.mySprite.attachChild(imageLoader);
I want to load an external swf and dynamically attach the mc's in the loaded swf to the main movie. Is it possible to reference the linkage properties of the externally loaded swf in this way?
