ActionScript 2.0 :: Can't Find Error In Xml Gallery?
Feb 23, 2008
i used the xml gallery with thumb tutorial i just changed around the var nameseverything thing runs in my xml until it gets down to tracing from the onLoadStart and the rest of the onLoads, which loads the thumbnails. i just can't figure out what it is. this is the functionyou can see where the one trace works and the others don't **also wanted to know if anyone knows how to create a preloader for all the thumbnails from this code, so your not stuck with a blank screen waiting for the thumbs to download **
ActionScript Code:
function thumbs_fn(num){
//create empty movieclips inside thumbnail_mc to hold the images in
I'm calling a function in my actionscript called GrabWidget() from the javascript. When I do this from a plain page with just the flash and the javascript link, everything works flawlessly. However, when I add this to a page, I get the error: uncaught exception: Error in Actionscript. Use a try/catch block to find error.I've even gone so far as to empty out the contents of GrabWidget() in my actionscript and I still get the error.
I'm trying to set up a contact form but I get a #1009 error. I read somewhere that it has to do with false targeting but I can't find my error(s). Please help.

I'm working on my website which is a portfolio site, to showcase my work I have a basic XML image gallery which does 1 of 3 things loads a large photo, goes to a frame with a video player, or goes to another frame with a gallery of web design or flash work i've done. when a thumb is clicked i trace the indexOf(event.target) of the thumbnail clicked (all thumbnails are placed into an array).
the problem is that for some reason randomly the index will not be found and return -1, but then other times it will find the correct index and work properly. i don't know what the inconstancy is thats causing this to occur
- I put the FLV file in the root folder of my website
- I use the 'import video' command in Flash
- I choose 'none' for the skin.
- Then I drag a pause/play button to the stage and customize it a bit.
- I export or publish to create a swf file.
- In the component inspector I have tried now several things for the source link: /mysitename/photoslideshow.flv and /users/myname/sites/mysitename/photoslideshow.flv
- In dreamweaver I choose insert SWF and select the SWF file that is next to the FLV file in the root folder of my website. I have tried both options relative to: document and site root.
- I check to make sure the webpage, flv and swf files are published to the server.
- The FLV MIME type is indeed enabled on my server.
- When going online get an error that it cannot find the FLV!
I tried a test with a FLV file I created and using just a regular skin. The same thing happens
I have solved this problem before the first time it happened to 'put' the ENTIRE site in dremweaver vs only the individual files. But this time I have also tried that to no avail.
Currently there is a error i cant seem to find as the error indicates that
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at Panel/setting() at Panel()
went to panel/setting to see what is wrong but still cant figure out what is wrong.i am suppose to make the spawning of edible and inedible stop till end of the time..current time is 5s as i wanted to find out where is it that is wrong but original time is 60seconds. the spawning does not stop and it keep repeating even if i never add in spawnUp().
"you should create a fla, drag an flvplayback component to the stage, create an array of your flvs, initialize an index at zero, assign the flv to start playing your first flv and increment the index in a function that executes when an flv complete and play that array element until all are played. you'll publish your html and swf from that fla." And he gave me a code sample which is below... modified to show my "instance" name as FlvChainand my flv file names... vid1.flv, vid2.flv, and vid3.flv...
My code...
import fl.video.VideoEvent; var flvA:Array=["vid1.flv","vid2.flv","vid3.flv"]; var index:uint=0; FlvChain.source=flvA[index];
[code]....
When I attempt to Debug I get this message...
"1087: Syntax error: extra characters found after end of program."
i have coded my first xml gallery, it loads jpgs and swf files.the swf files have each a video component on stage that controls the related FLV file.Testing the gallery locally I had no problem at all, but when uploaded to the server the jpgs works fine while the swf files (containing the videos) keep trhowing this error:
VideoError: 1000: Unable to make connection to server or to find FLV on server at fl.video::VideoPlayer/stop() at fl.video::FLVPlayback/stop()[code]....
im getting an error message that flash cant find the base class. i put the as file and the fla file in the same folder, isnt that the first place in the classpath?
I have a URL Query String Generated Flash Site and I need this code so that when it can not find the swf typed it will return with an Error. Here's my code that I thinks should work.
I created a website off of a template, and of course didn't learn the Flash MX 2004 program before I started and just intuitioned through it. Now, the site works great, but I want to edit it and can't get to any of the layers, because I'm sure I've fumbled the organization. I can find the clips, symbols and images in the library, but not on the Stage. Tried onion skinning, and timeline/tween clicking - no go.
I'm currently trying to implement an automated bug reporter for a Flex application, and would like to return error messages to a server along with the function/line number that caused the error. Essentially, I'm trying to get the getStackTrace() information without going into debug mode, because most users of the app aren't likely to have the debug version of flash player.My current method is using the UncaughtErrorEvent handler to catch errors that occur within the app, but the error message only returns the type of error that has occurred, and not the location (which means it's useless). I have tried implementing getStackTrace() myself using a function name-grabber such as [code]
but that will only work because of arguments.callee, and so won't go through multiple levels of function calls (it would never get above my error event listener).Anyone have any ideas on how to get informative error messages through the global error event handler? There seems to be some misunderstanding. I'm explicitly avoiding getStackTrace() because it returns 'null' when not in debug mode.
I followed a tutorial online to create a photo gallery using an XML file. It works fine when tested in flash via the test movie window and with the bandwidth pro-filer turned on. So, I uploaded the page to my website to test it, and when I load the page in any browser I receive this error message in an adobe flash player pop up box: Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2036: Load Never Completed. Here's the Actionscript I am using: var xmlRequest:URLRequest = new
URLRequest("http://www.davidframpton.co.uk/Gallery/galleryData.xml"); var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader (xmlRequest); var imgData:XML; var imageLoader:Loader; var rawImage:String; var rawH:String; var rawW:String; var imgNum:Number = 0; var
I am new to AS3 but very comfortable with AS2. I am trying to build a page with multiple image galleries pulling images from a few xml documents and I'm running into a snag. I am using a custom scrollbar based on the gotoAndLearn tutorila and loading the full size images into a movie clip on the stage. Everything is perfect until I move to the second frame and attempt to load the next xml and new set of images.[url]...
i am trying to get the photo gallery made by flashmo available here: [URL]to display .swf instead of external .jpg files as it was originally intended for. This system is .xml based where it obtains details of the images to display from the external .xml file.
I have the system working for the photo gallery but i need a page where a show animations that are already compiled into self contained .swf files. The site I am building if purely flash and consists of just one main.swf file.
To get the system to work I simply changed the filename in the .xml file to direct the system to a .swf animation file as oppose to a .jpg file and the system worked perfectly. oh so i thought...........
Testing the site within flash under the "test movie" (ctrl + enter) option proved the system to be fully functional with no issues at all. However when exported as a flash .swf movie file as a standalone file when ran locally through directly clicking on the .swf the animations page would simply display "NaN%" where the percentage loaded should be displayed and clicking on the thumbnails to load different .swf movie files didn't do anything, the .swf animation files will never load, nothing is ever shown apart from the empty loading bar and "NaN%". Loading the .swf locally through the browser by means of a simple html page doesn't make a difference either.
To make it a little more strange, when the site was uploaded to an online server and visited remotely through the browser it would do the same but clicking on the thumbnails loaded the corresponding .swf animation file fine and the "NaN%" error after the initial display is never seen again until the browser is closed and re-opened to visit the site again. The system is set to initially load the first .swf animation clip.
Only minor changes to the code have been made by me and I am no expert at this at all so it could be something really simple. I feel the fact that it works under testing, partially when online and not at all when run directly and indirectly (browser) locally is strange and there must be an explanation for this that one of you experts must know.
I've been creating an XML photo gallery with Flash CS4 and AS 3.0 following a tutorial. I followed the instructions step-by-step but at the end I got the following error message instead:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found. Could anyone in the community assist me as to how to solve the problem? The script has no errors and last time I checked all the applicable files (the .xml file, the .jpg files, the .swf and the .fla file) are in my Documents folder on the Mac.
I'm building a dynamic XML photo gallery/case study application that allows users to filter relevant results and then view the corresponding text/photos. So far i've used list components to scan my XML document and return the results for the filters, and then add thumbnails to a panel. When you click on the thumbnail, it brings up the first of a series of images, which i load into a Loader instance and add it to the stage using addChild();
The image sequence is then controlled by a series of navigational buttons, of which currently i only have "Next" and "Previous". The buttons work by incrementing/deincrementing a variable that is the index of the image currently being displayed, so when you hit next, it adds/subtracts 1 from that variable, and then uses that number for the index of my <image> tag in the XML doc. All works fine until you reach the end of the images. I have a conditional that tests if the currentImg variable is equal to the length(); property of the XML tag, and if it is, it resets the currentImg value to 0. And vice versa for the previous button. But when the file is published, and i reach the last image and hit the next button, i get this error:TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at MethodInfo-346()
The strange thing is, that if i hit next again, it does what it is supposed to do by going to the first image. Then if i cycle through the images once again the same thing happens. And the same scenario and error occurs when i hit the previous button on the first image. if i need to somehow remove the images from memory, or if they are still in memory and i need to access them a different way the second time around? this is very frustrating.
I download a free photo gallery from [url]... and works fine. But when I put this gallery in a frame in my flash site justs appears but doesn't work. It's says Error opening URL 'file:undefined'
Should I change all the paths in the actionscript?
I'm trying to make a photo gallery with thumbnails to select the image. The thumbnails load up fine from the XML file but the other images give the error
'Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found'
I have checked and re-checked the URL's in the XML file and they seem fine to me.[code]...
I have a page containing multiple image galleries and thumbnail scrollers pulling in from external XMLs. The first scene containing gallery 1 loads the thumb and full size image perfectly.We I navigate to the second scene containing a new instance of my scrollpanel and container movie clip for my full size image I this error: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at index_fla::MainTimeline/index_fla::frame6()I am wondering if I have to remove an event listener from the previous frame. Everything on the stage has an instance name and I am calling all new variable son the second frame.

I'm trying to build this XML gallery that has a next & previous button that will load XML content. When I click on the next or previous buttons I get this error: TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter text must be non-null. at flash.text::TextField/set text() at recent_fla::MainTimeline/nextImage()
This is what my actionscript looks like: Actionscript Code: stop();var titleArray:Array = new Array(); var descriptionArray:Array = new Array(); var imageArray:Array = new Array(); var imageNumber:Number = 0; var totalImages:Number; [Code] .....
the way my time line is set up is.. Scene 1 > outside MC > drink1MC > steeringWheelMC > jailAnim So how do I get it to go from jailAnim to Scene 1, Frame 3? Or into outsideMC frame 1? I tried this:
stop(); againBTN.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, again); function again(event:MouseEvent):void { gotoAndStop(3, "Scene 1");
And I get an error saying it cannot find "Scene 1" in jailAnim. I also tried frame labeling in Scene 1 frame 3, but once again I get the error saying it cannot find it in jailAnim.
I have moved our project from SDK 2.0.1 to 3.5 because I'm using TLF. This has compiled OK in flex builder 3 IDE but I am now using command line compilation for our build system and getting errors for all the standard Flex resource bundles: Sharedresources, collections, containers, controls etc. I can see this is because of the improvements in Flex 3 and the SDK local folder doesn't have these as .properties files but now has a framework_rb.swc.
