where I can find a tutorial for a scroll bar and the content you are scrolling is loaded from a html file? I saw one where you can do it with a .txt file but you cant put images on it, so do you know if it is possible to load the content from a html file with images?
View 2 RepliesI have a main.swf file. In first frame i load a background slideshow with this code:
[Code]...
My problem is that when the site loads the 1st time and click from the menu to go to the 2nd frame (1st content page) then i have to wait at about 3-4 seconds to load my html content. The same for the 3rd frame. If these two content pages load for the 1st time, then the pages open immediately. What can i do for this? Is there a way to open this content pages more quickly, or place a loader, and with what code?
I load an external html content page through contents.xml file, in page.swf, which loads in main.swf like external file. The code of contents.xml is this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><xml>
<content>

I'm trying to load variables from a text file and then preload an image into a content holder but it doesn't seem to work here is my code
[Code]...
loadVariablesNum("testimonials.txt", 0);
gotoAndPlay("load");
This code works perfect when testing, and it works perfect viewing the SWF, but when you view the HTML file with the SWF embedded, it doesn't display the text file content.
Is there any way to load swf content like html from top to bottom progressively instead of waiting until whole file loaded.
I thought i can separate the swf content into many smaller horizantal swfs and load them one by one with masking but i am sure it is not gonna work properly?
The dilemma I currently have is that I'm hosting a resource that is application/octet-stream. In my Actionscript code, I'm using some library that ( from what I can recall ) does new Image and loads a resource into that object which was created.There is a method, loadImage(url) which accepts a url and that's where you feed it the path to the image.I do not have access to the loadImage source code, so I don't know exactly what it does, but the working one loads the image fine because the Content-Type is image/jpeg. The non-working one ( this one I'm trying to fix ) doesn't because of the different Content-Type.I'm wondering if someone can tell me if I can make the flash basically parse the URI as if it were image/jpeg, regardless of the Content-Type? [code]
I assume that Image the constructor is native to flash/AS, but I haven't been able to google the loadImage method so it must be custom, right?Or could the Image constructor itself be custom? An extended version of the original Image with loadImage method and such?Anyways, does anyone know how I can view the source code of loadImage? I did an ack-grep and found the source code for the loadImage method defined in a library:[code]Can anyone offer advice as to how I can do the loadBytes on this? I was thinking of defining a custom method, loadResource or something which can load regardless of Content-Type... or just create an optional parameter in the current load method and inside, branch out based on what was passed.
I have been trying to figure out the best way to load content into a container on an .php page which has three different .swfs already loaded - one is an mp3 player which I do not want to stop playing (this will obviously happen on a page refresh). The objective is to keep a flash menu for navigation given it's nice animation capabilities, but load page content into a container underneath. There are JavaScript files out there that work in conjunction with php (ajax) to accomplish this, but once I throw flash into the mix everything goes sideways. I know you can include js with the ExternalInterface.call function, but this only solves the js portion not the php bit.
View 1 RepliesCan someone point me in a direction for using HTML in as3? I have a project in which I want to load HTML content so that others in the office can author in HTML since they are very familiar with it. It would have to recognize many of the most common HTML tags. Is this easily done or would I need some sort of add-on?

View 1 RepliesI have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?
[Code]...
I can view it in my browser by going directly to the file however when it is embedded the photos will not load. The images it loads has to be in the same directory as the .swf file and as i stated it clearly works when going directly to the file but not once it has been embedded.

View 0 RepliesI am using the load command to load content from a .txt file on my server. I have it all working just find when I preview the swf file in flash and when I view the .swf in my web browser from my server. The problem when I view the .swf file on my php page (home.php) I only get undefined variables, it seems to not be able to connect to the .txt files only when I am viewing it on my php page. Again if I view the .swf file on my server using my web browser it works fine.

View 4 RepliesI'm constructing a website in flash, and on each page of the website I have a dymanic text field pulling data from a .txt file for that page, (the news page has a dymanic text field called "newsText" which pulls data from "news.txt" for example) The website im working on is here: [URL] If you have a slower internet connection, whenever you click on the link to a new page, a small white square will appear in the corner before the content has fully loaded, this white square is a result of the scrollbar being disabled due to the content not being loaded yet (and thus having nothing to define wether or not it should need to scroll)
as the website grows in content this will become more and more of a problem. My actionscript ability is really limited. So whats the simplest way I can add a preloader to the page to load the content of the .txt file before displaying it?
I have developed a small website in flash 8 ...
- The website has content (text) which is loaded externally

- I have added a preloader at the beginning of my file
But still when I loaded it on the server....the images and the content is coming slowly. Some way to load the whole file completely at the time of loading (including the external content)?
