ActionScript 2.0 :: [f8] Xml Tag - Create A Hyperlink Within The Gallery
Jun 28, 2007
I'm very very VERY new to XML, and maybe a couple months heavily into Flash. Not the greatest Actionscripter by any means. Most of my work comes from tutorials, and working on top of them. I recently did a tutorial for a photo gallery, that included an xml file. The actionscript and xml file was provided by the tutorial. I read the explanations of both the AS and XML, but I have a small problem for now.
I'm trying to create a hyperlink within the gallery. I assume that I have to add the appropriate "tag" to the line in the XML document, but as you all know, and I recently found out, tags don't work the same in XML as they do in HTML. So my question is, how do I create my tag in the XML document to make a word a hyperlink? (if it's even possible)
Does anyone know how to create a hyperlink on an swf file? i think it can be done using actionscript during the creation of the fla, but i want to see if it can be hyperlinked AFTER creation, just using the website code.
I am trying to create a hyperlink in my text field that when clicked will take you a website target a _blank page.I have created a text field and input the website through xml - src, I put the text field inside a movieclip - link, i created a sprite and put that in the movieclip. However anytime that I try to click it, no matter the configuration I get one of two errors: Error #1069: Property loader not found on flash.text.TextField and there is no default value.^^Is the most common The other one is I believe Error #1010 Can not target and object of null reference?? Something along those lines.
My Code:
var link:MovieClip = new MovieClip(); var anchor:Sprite = new Sprite(); anchor.graphics.drawRect(265, 235, 690, 20); anchor.graphics.beginFill(0x00ff00);
I have created a button, and once you hit the button (within the HTML page), I want it to open another HTML page in the same frame, both HTML pages are stored in my hard drive offline. It required coding in the code snippet panel which I do not know.
I want to do is add a simple hyperlink in my xmlhtml hyperlink in my xml.how to do a hyperlink in xml.This is what I do know,you can add the <a href="http:[url]...but that does not work for me,when i save and preview my fla, it takes away my scroll bar that i have.I have also seen somwhere you can use the <?[[DATA tag, but this aswell doesnt work for me in my FLA, is there somewhere i need to reference hyperlinks before I can modify my xml?
I am developing a web based image gallery system and looking for the right technology in which to develop it. I own Microsoft's complete development environment (aka Silverlight), I also own Adobe Production Premium CS4 (aka Flash CS4). Since targeting the Linux/BSD environment is vital to my business model, trust me on this one, Silverlight is not the ideal solution. I know there is that Monolight, but that isn't mainstream. But as we all know, Flash runs on Linux just fine, making it the ideal solution. Actually Flex is a better option, but I am trying to work with what I already own.
All the stuff I see on Flash is really basic graphic designer stuff. I was wondering if anyone know of a decent tutorial that might help me get started with developing an image gallery with Flash CS4.
I'm currently building a site for my photography. (broke college student) but I followed this tutorial and loved it but I'm wondering how I could number each photo? So when you click on the next button it shows you that your on photo 2 out of 65? [URL]
what i'm looking for is to create a gallery of images. there are 12 images in total with 3 showing. I want to add a forwards/next button that will cause the gallery of images to scroll across, with a smooth action, when the cursor hovers over the fowards button. I don't want the next images to show 1 by 1 but the gallery to gradually scroll arcoss(like all of the images are on one long reel being pulled from the left)
I want to create a picture gallery in Flash. I want small thumbnail images all around the edges of the canvass (canvass will be a rectangle). When the user clicks on the thumbnail I want the image to be displayed in the centre of the rectangle in its full size. How do I create such a picture gallery? Is there a simple tutorial? Or simple template I can use anywhere?
I'm trying to create a gallery with two buttons, previous and next, to change images with the click on the button. I've found a tutorial but it's for AS2...I've tried to change it, but I receive error 1119. Here's the code
I'm trying to create a personalized gallery, so far it's going ok. What I have is 9 thumbnails, which load an image with an invisible button linked to the button which loads a larger version of the image to the side.
What I would like to do is then click on the larger image and have this pop up in a new window so that the image is loaded on it's own and can be downloaded etc; My thumbnails are loading as follows...
loadMovie("gallery1t.jpg", thumb1.image);
Then when I click on them , I get it to load the medium sized image into the larger image holder.
I'm looking for a tutorial which explains me how to create a simple AS3 image gallery driven by an XML file.
The gallery I need is really simple: an horizontal bar placed on the bottom containing the thumbnails which scrolls left and right according to the mouse pointer clicking on a thumbnail the full image must be shown above the thumbnails' bar buttons for prev and next image clicking on the button which opens the gallery I must be able to pass a variable to make the gallery load the proper xml file (I've got 6 different categories to show)
I am trying to embed a flash gallery on my website like the gallery found on the follwing page URL... what do I need to do to achieve this, do you have any recommended documents I could follow?
I have taken a shot at creating a viewer like what can be found at [URL]in Flash, but mine is not working right. I am on Flash MX Pro 2004, so I'm not sure what version this lines up with? I can also send you the file I've been working on if that would help. I found some code online that I have tweaked, but it was for a different viewer, and I'm sure that's where my problems are coming from.
I'm starting to create a flash gallery that uses xml.I want to make it as object oriented as possible, but i'm having a hard time determining what feature should be it's own class and what feature should be a method within the class.
The gallery is going to be a lot like the flickr gallery. I know that i can make a separate xml class that takes care of all the xml related functions.However, will I just have one other class, Gallery.as or should my gallery be composed of different classes.
For example, should the part that handles the thumbnails be a separate Thumbnails.as class or should it simply be a method within the Gallery.as class?
I'm trying to create a slideshow in a gallery. I managed to make it work but only if you first click on the slideshow button and then you click on one of the thumbnails. I haven't been able to do just by clicking on the slideshow button. This is the code I used in summary:
Code: package galery { public class GaleriaFotos{ public function GaleriaFotos() {
I'm looking for a tutorial which could teach me how to create a gallery with a group of movies.the example image is this i think the best idea is to group all movies together horizontally using the tween action to move them left and right from a movie to another.my problem is to create the right actionscript.
This is question is a take off of my post in the Flash MX forum regarding creating thumbnails. I'm trying to create thumbnails for a pic gallery and would like to have an over-button state that will make my little thumbnail increase in size a little to indicate that this is the picture the viewer is going to view. I don't know how to go about making this button and I'm trying to figure out if there is a way through action script to do this. This way I don't have to make the over state a movie and increase the size manually...
I have used the code provided by the amazing sbeener and it works really well. What I want to do now is add little thumbnails beside the large main image and once the user clicks on the thumbnail the associated image is shown. I am relatively new to action scripting but learning everyday.URL...
im currently trying to use this script to create a little thumbnail gallery: [URL]first off my main flash file has 2 movie clips in, an empty on which an image will be loaded into and one with a navigation menu on.now within the navigation there is a button which will load an external swf into that same movie clip. This loaded swf contains the "Complex Button" my problem is that i dont know how to (or if it is possible) to use these buttons to load a jpg into the empty movie clip on the main timeline im guessing it has something to do with:
I stumbled upon the photo gallery page when looking at how to create one for my website,It works perfectly however how could i change/add to the code so that for a specific photo a certain caption appears which changes for each different photo?
I am trying to create an interactive image gallery for use on my GoDaddy.com site. The site is template based and will only accept a single standalone.swf file. As an example GoDaddy shows an image gallery created in Flash Slideshow Maker Pro. However, this is only for a PC platform and I'm on a Mac. I created an interactive image gallery using Jetphoto software. However, the Jetphoto software does not produce a single standalone .swf file. Instead it produces folders containing hi & lo jpgs, an html file, an xml file and a jetphotview.swf file. Does anyone know of a Mac based interactive slideshow program that is easy to use and will create a single .swf file? Or, although I don't know how to use it, I own a full version of Flash. Is there any way to convert the series of Jetphoto files to a single .swf file? When it is opened in Flash the save menus are grayed out. I tried to convert the .swf file back to an .fla file to bring into Flash and that doesn't work either.
How can I create a photo gallery to put into my current flash site Iam creating? Using flash cs3.When going on line I saw that maybe you can use Dreamweaver, XML, or even Photoshop can anybody explain the difference between using one or the other?
