ActionScript 2.0 :: Load Multiple Jpg's From Xml Doc?
Jul 13, 2004
how I can load multiple jpgs into a flash movie from a xml document? I need to create a movie clip on the fly.. well, this I have managed, but lets say I have 5 images I want to display from a xml doc at different positions in the movie at the same time. To create this I do a for-loop on all the images in the xml file and get the image file paths, then I create an unique filename (ex. var movieClipName:String = "newFileName" + j (j is the iterator in the for-loop), then I create a new movieclip (ex. _root.createEmptyMovieClip(movieClipName, j);
...here the problem starts.. you see, now I want to position the new movieClip.
Ideally I would see this work:
_root.movieClipName._x = 40 * j;
_root.movieClipName._y = 40 * j;
loadMovie(path, movieClipName);
...but this doesnt work. I cant find ANY way to position the new movie clip.

I have 24 movie clips on the stage: my_menu.image_holder_mc1 thru my_menu.image_holder_mc24. I want to load an image in each one. How do I identify the holder which to add a child.
The Code I have so far is....
Code:
for (var i:Number=1; i<=24;i++){
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.name = "image_"+i;

I've been doing a lot of thinking about how best to construct classes that load multiple images, e.g. photo galleries and such.
What is everyone's take (or the general agreement, if there is one) on how to load those images? The 2 ways I am thinking about are these (after you've already got all the filepaths or urls to be loaded):
1)Create a for loop [code]...
Here, you are creating anywhere from one to a billion loaders, depending on the number of photos in your gallery, but they will load simultaneously. Is that a terribly bad approach?
The only other way I know of doing it is to add an event listener that re-calls the loading function when the loading of one image completes.

I want to load multiple pictures using ActionScript. I can do it in AS2 easily. But AS3 is driving me nuts.

I'm having a heck of a time trying to get a number of external SWFs loaded into one main SWF in successive order, the next one playing after the other has ended. To complicate matters, the external SWFs have FLV files in them.
using Flash CS3
Actionscript 3.0
So, here's essentially what I'm looking to do: - I have one main SWF file (call it main.swf)- load several SWF files into this file so they play in order (let's call them movie1.swf, movie2.swf, movie3.swf, and so on) - these external SWF files all have FLV progressive downloads (not embedded, becuase then my audio doesn't sync up) - I want movie1.swf to load and play in the main file, then detect when the movie is complete, and unload that audio/video then load in movie2.swf, and so on.
This script seemed promising, but loads all of my SWFs on top of each other, making for some ::interesting:: audio... (i have it pasted in actions on first frame in main.swf)
var a:Array = new Array("movie1.swf", "movie2.swf", "movie3.swf");var tl:MovieClip=this
var index:uint=0;
loadF(new Event("nada"));
[Code]....
Maybe there's some code that can be pasted in the individual SWFs?

How can I load multiple conditional MC's in to my stage?What I am trying to do is use nams stored in an array that corrispond to MC's and have it place the MC's on the stage in a way similar to a gallery. However the array is generated by clicking a selection of buttons so the buttons that aren't clicked are not added to the array hence IF statements are used when looking at the array. [code]...

I have a image of a person that I would like to load a certain number of times in a row to show a total of how many people took part in this particular event. In total I need 166 replications of this image, is there any actionscript I can use to do this without having to create a key frame for every separate image?

I have the basic XML which loads an image onto a page but how do I add 2 more next to it, in the actionscript?
I have tried everything that I could think of, including adding extra image[ii] nodes etc.
Below is the code I am using.
I have also created an instance of image2 and and instance of image3 which should hold the 2nd and third pic. So when clicking on the next button it would change out all three images from the images.xml file...or if there are 5 images it would just show the next 2 in the image and image2 movieclip holders...
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];

I have a array of names corresponding to buttons selected the names allow me to load specific MC's in to a UI Loader in a new Flash movie by using SharedObject. My problem is that I have quite a few buttons but I'm only loading the MC's of the ones that were selected and I don't know how to load multiple MC's in to one Loader. Kind of like a gallery of thumbnails but the order depends on what items have been selected to show.Can anyone please explain how I could load each MC?this is how I am loading my array and thensome how I need to add these to a loader.
Code:
var selectedButtons:Array = loadButtons();
for each( var buttonName:String in selectedButtons )

im making a little flash game and im wondering if this is possible.. I want to (just because) create one file which contains all the data that i want to load into my flash movie.
say i place all the files/sounds/external swf's in one folder and sort them how i like.. Then i zip that folder and place it on my webbserver.
is it now possible to load in that zip file and retrieve the contents of it using only flash?
it offcourse does not have to be zip format.. i just want that general concept.

I'm new to the group and to Flash coding. I'm working on a proof of concept for work and I am completely stumped. With my limited knowledge and a lot of questions I have been able to get my template working but now the tricky part, it loads from 1 XML file just fine, but I need to cycle through 3-4 files that are identical in format, just different feeds.[CODE]...

What I have is one swf with buttons, pressing one loads another swf containing several thumbnails (all thumbnails should be images loaded externally). Pressing one of the thumbnails should load yet another swf containing a large image of that thumbnail.This is what I have done so far (this is for the swf containing all the thumbnails):[code]This ActionScript automatically loads the 1.swf containing the larger image of the first thumbnails without waiting for the user to click the mouse.

I'm trying to go through a for loop, create a movieclip for each database entry, add the image by url stored. The problem is the code I have only does the last image. I know it's because something is not incrementing and they all have the same name. Do I need to increment the name of my loader?[code]...
