I have a nested blank clip (_root.banner.holder.picture) and want to load a picture into it, using the following code in the _root.No matter what I do, I can't get it to work
Code:
_root.myobject = "picture1";
loadpic = _root.myobject+".jpg";
[code].....
a simple case of loading images using MovieClipLoader
function thumbnails_fn(k) {
thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip("t"+k, thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth());
tlistener = new Object();
[code]....
note the output the first loadclip is executed even though the if works very strange?and no default .swf file is loaded or is loaded but not set as it should see onLoadIni function?
When I load an external SWF into my UI SWF using MovieClipLoader.loadClip(), does the external SWF get cached?
Therefore, if the user tries to reload a SWF that had been previously loaded, the SWF will load from the local HDD instead of the website, right?
In my case, caching of content is important to reduce bandwidth usage.
At work, I am trying to load JPGs externally using AS2 loadMovie() and loadClip() and the photos take too long to display. My boss does not want a preloader, so the photos just need to display on our website immediately.
Some of the photos are between 75K and 150K and photos do not display in order. They come in at different times. Because of this, my boss is claiming that I did not complete the pages although they are done and I am just loading the photos from outside the SWF.
can anyone tell me how to load external .swf using loadClip method with additional parameters?[code]

I want to make a picture gallery and use buttons that move you from picture to picture and backwards, but I don't want to tell button 1 to go to frame 2 and button 2 to got to frame 3 and so on (I hope you know what I mean)Can I use on button on a separate layer with the same action set? I tried something like that, but it didn't work:
on (release) {
thisframe =+1
}
[code]........
but it didn't work. I'm kind of new to any action script other than gotAndPlay, easy functions and all that.
The desired affect is simple: I have a single button... with each click I want it to load text into a dynamic text field and load a corresponding picture or movieclip.There are only three unique text/image combinations- after its displayed the third, with the next click I want it to just start over. All the text functions perfectly with each click.
The problem is:I use "createEmptyMovieClip" then use the resulting clip as a loader clip.. With the first click I want a movieclip from the library to load, so I use the "attachMovie" method- it displays the first library fine.With the next click I want to load an external swf- so I call the "loadMovie" method of the loaderclip... The external swf loads just fine replacing the first library clip.The third clip is where I have problems... now I want to load another library item into the loaderclip... so I tried using the attachMovie method again but the external swf remains static... then with the next click, I discover the first library item no longer loads and the external swf remains still playing- it's like once it's been loaded into the loaderclip it cant be moved...
So I tried adding the "unloadMovie" method in the code for the third click.. it successfully removed the swf... but the next line of code immediately after the unload statement, doesn't work. The line calls the attachMovie method for the loaderclip... but the library item doesnt load... Oddly enough, with the next click, the first library item now does load as if everything's fine... It seems like you cant use the unloadMovie and attachMovie on the same executing code? if that makes any sense... the basic idea was that if I couldnt get the attachmovie method to replace the loaded external swf, then I would use the unload method to remove it, then have code immediately after, to then execute the attachMovie method... but it still doesnt load the library clip. and I know it's not a type-o, because when I comment out the loadMovie and unloadMovie statements, it loads both the library items perfectly ? The code is below
var increment:Number = 1;
var verbiage1:String = "Hello World1";
var verbiage2:String = "Hello World2";[code].............
Can't understand why: loadMovie("pict/my_picture.jpg",movieClip); the path seems to be correct, but Flash canīt load the picture. It works locally, although, but not on the server.
View 1 RepliesI use Loader to load two picture,such as 1.jpg and 2.jpg,like follows:
_p1=new Pic("1.jpg");_p2=new Pic("2.jpg");
Then I add the two picture into a Sprite,like follows:
Sprite _g=new Sprite();
_g.addChild(_p1);
_g.addChild(_p2);
Then I draw a circle as _g mask,such as _c
_g.mask=_c;
I want to realize following effect.First appear 2.jpg,and during the mask _c radius is from 0 to 300,the picture 1.jpg is appearing synchronously in mask _c.

View 1 RepliesI'm creating a picture gallery in actionscript 2. In order for people to easily create/modify galleries, I have actionscript read in file information through XML. However I have one problem I can't get around. I'm having trouble loading the picture into a movieclip, then being able to change the properties of that movieclip (change _x, _y, and _alpha). Here is what I have so far

View 9 Repliesi was trying to load a picture in to a loader :
ActionScript Code:
var url:String = e.currentTarget.link;
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);
[Code]....
and the only error was : SecurityError: Error #2000: No active security context.
i found the problem !: this error occurred if the xml link is wrong or if the picture is not on called link.
The question is: this is a cs5 bag or i miss something ?
I'm trying to monitor the currentframe of a movie so that when it goes to a specific frame, its loads the corresponding a picture out of an array dynamically using XML.
I think I have most of that loading part sorted out, the issue i think comes when i am looping code on the movieclip. I'm trying to set it up in such a way that if the currentframe remains the same, that it does nothing...this is so that it does not repeatedly load the same image over and over if the frame does not change.
I only want an image to load if the current frame has changed. I realise an example is in order so i posted the .fla and the .xml files in a zip file.
I'm trying to fix this for such a long time. I've used the scotty gallery but want to open the clicked thumnail in a new movie. [code]...

When I rollover my thumbnails I want it to load the corresponding version of a bigger picture, which is stored in the name property of each thumbnail. This works but the problem is i also want to, when clicked, goto a URL adress. But now the name property already have the path to the big version so I cant put the URL-path there. So how do I make each thumbnail find the "big version" and the url-path?
Code:
//thumbnail picture
thumb_Loader.load(new URLRequest(xmlList[i].attribute("thumb")));
//thumbnail BIG picture
thumb_Loader.name=xmlList[i].attribute("source");
I have this script. On the mc duplications i want to onRelease get on the every box a different loadPic(x)[code]...

View 2 Repliesi am creating a flash website, i have a preloader at the start of the site. My problem is that when i view it as it would be seen on a browser the preloader doesn't appear straight away. i have an image with the preloader (site logo) and is 182kb file size and am guessing that this picture needs to load first for the next action to happen. if htis is so, other then reducing the file size is there anyway to make the preloader appear straight away.
