ActionScript 2.0 :: Stop Loading The Previous Xml When Start Loading Another Xml?
Dec 7, 2009
I have two xmls, xml1 and xml2. Both have same structure, only data are different. Button 1 loads xml1 and button2 loads xml2. Both calls same function to load XML. First i press button1, so xml1 starts loading, but if before xml1 is completely loaded, i press button2, xml2 also starts loading. If for some reason the xml2 loads first i get data from xml2. But when i look at the bandwidth profiler in flash , xml1 is still loading. When xml1 is loaded it will replace data from xml2. SInce i pressed button2 last, i would want data from xml2. So is it possible to stop loading the previous xml when i start loading another xml?

I am making a website and am having a very hard time with the actionscripting and external loading involved. I have managed to auto load the background externally but the problem is that once the bgload movie(which is loading externally in main.swf) is loaded, it goes back to start. make the "bgload" movie stop right there after its played once....

A few months ago, I started noticing a small annoyance in Flash and the Flash Player. This small annoyance quickly became a rather large inconvenience, so I recently started googling a solution. Nothing to be found, unfortunately.Here's my problem:When I open a swf file with the standalone Flash Player (any version), the size of the player is set to the size of the last swf file I loaded with the "File - Open" dialog. By the way, when I use the file dialog to open files, the player resizes appropriately.An example:I open a swf with "open with - Flash Player" and the Flash Player sets its size to 320x240 instead of the swf's size, 640x480. Or I open a swf that should be 550x400 and it opens at 320x240. The Flash Player always uses the dimensions of the last file opened with "File - Open."
This problem even affects the Flash CS3 built-in "Test Movie" player.The problem is a little difference within the "test movie" player. It seems to keep whatever the dimensions were the last time you resized the player yourself, and full screen mode doesn't work properly.I tried upgrading, downgrading, editing the

I have a feeling that this is going to be an easy solution, but I don't have as much experience with the Loader class as I should. I have 2 external swfs that I'm loading, but i only want the second swf to load after the first has finished loading.How would I go about doing this? Would I call the loadBus function from within the loadAir function?[code]

how to automatically load external movie clips so that they load and play after the previous movie clip has finished. I have attached a simplified version of the files that I am working with.The files are set up as so: Main.fla : this is the main file in which all of the other movie clips are loaded into.Movie1.fla, Movie2.fla, Movie3.fla : These movies need to load and play after the previous movie has finished playing.

Code:
var imageLoader:Loader;
function loadImage (url:String):void
{
// Set properties on imageLoader object

I want to end any previous data loading progresses.. But I can't manage to do this.
I tried lots of things (as you can see couple of them below), but it just can't stop downloading of images. I click to first gallery button, it starts to download thumbs and the first picture. Then I click to second gallery button and it adds more download progress to the previous ones.. (Every gallery has 4 thumb, this way every click adds 4 thumb and 1 picture. It's download count grows 5+5+5 to infinite) This code is from my thumb class.. Every thumb downloads it's own little image..

I have a website that loads external .swf files using XML. People viewing my website would have to wait a while for my .swf's to load as some are 5mb plus. Is there a bit of script I can use to say start playback of my .swf when it has loaded 50% of the file?

I am a flash newbie, how can I get the flash to start playing before it is finished loading on a website? I embedded a FLV file into a flash and I'm going to export it as a SWF, I want it to start playing the movie before it's done loading so people don't think that it's not working.

I need to load all image thumbnails and some other things ( which are loaded externally with xml) at same time, while displaying the percentage of them. The problem i am having is that flash cant get their totalBytes in start, the total bytes of all of these items is rising while the loading is in progress.So the percentage always goes up and down. To understand better what i am meaning here is the link to the preview ( note that it might have bugs as its still not finished ) : http:[url].....You can see last textfield under fps metter is TotalBytes , and the one above total is loadedBytes.
I tried using GreenSock's PreloadAssetManager ( http:[url].... ) but it takes to much time to START loading, it stays at 0% for more than 5-10 seconds.So i cant use it.The only thing i can think about is putting their size to xml and then istead of using getBytesTotal, ill use the data that i load from xml.. ?

I try to execute a code on my Stage, the problem is when I declare my own class on which they load the file (xml) the code start in the background.I tried to add a listener in the custom class for Event.COMPLETE but it doesn't work because it only affect the custom class, not the whole movie.I tried something like this:
Code:
var xmlLoad: XMLLoadData = new XMLLoadData("navigation.xml");
var menuBox:MenuBox = new MenuBox();

I've got a configuration xml file that I need to parse for values before a flex application loads. I've created a static class that allows for the values in the xml config file to be retrieved. I'm initializing this class when the application first loads but as the xml file is loaded with a Loader class that loads a synchronously the class is being asked for values before the xml file is actually loaded - so it is throwing a error. Is there a way to load this xml file synchronously. We cannot embed the file as a class variable as we need to be able to change the values remotely.

I am working on a tabular file that when you click on one of the tabs (there is 7) you view the content of that layer.
The code I am using works fine:
on (release) {
land._visible = true;
Tab1._visible = false;
[Code]....
but when you view the "land" layer, go back to another tab and go back to the "land" layer it doesn't reload and start at frame 1 but the last frame you were at.
I desperately need it to "reload" when you release on the action above and to GoToAndPlay frame 1 but whatever code I try it won't do it.

I mean youtube or any other streaming video site, but I've seen it on Youtube. There are times that the loaded bar shows that more than enough video stream has been loaded so the player could play it but it suddenly pauses and shows the loading icon?

Ok, this may be a little challenging for me to explain. In my portfolio section, I have a few links under an empty movie clip. These links are client names. When clicked, they are supposed to load an external swf into the empty movie clip. The problem is that if I click on one, then rapidly change my mind and click on another, the originally clicked external swf never stops loading and then my links stop responding.

I have a parent swf (parent.swf) which contains a loader (galleryLDR). The parent.swf has 2 buttons (button1 and button2) which will each load a separate swf (gallery1.swf or gallery2.swf) into the galleryLDR depending on which button you select.
If begin to load gallery1.swf, then decide to load gallery2.swf instead while gallery1.swf is still loading, the loading of gallery1.swf does not immediately terminate. Instead, gallery1.swf finishes loading, then the loader removes gallery1.swf and starts loading gallery2.swf. The code below is what I am using to attempt to cause the galleryLDR to immediately stop loading the any swf, then immediately load gallery2.swf.
how to immediately stop a loader from loading an external swf and the dynamic loading of images within the external swf? Below is what I've tried, but it doesn't work.
ActionScript Code:
if (galleryLDR != null){
galleryLDR.unloadAndStop();

I am creating an image gallery where the user can select from several thumbnail images. Once selected, the thumbnails will enlarge and load the full sized image. My problem is that while the user is waiting for the full sized image to load, he may decide to close that image and view another image. I am trying to find a way to stop a loader from loading. Here is the code I have used. My problem is that even though the user has clicked on the unloadBtn, the loader continues to load the file. Is there a way to disable that?[code]...

- I need to call loadSound() multiple times, to load different mp3s time to time, all of them in streaming. But as I call it more the once on the same instance the old mp3s keeps anyway loading.. how do I stop that?
In AS3 would be a simple .close(); ... but I can't really figure out how to do that in AS2.
Here some sample code:
// Works and Plays
_global.global_music = new Sound(this);
_global.global_music.loadSound('music/song1.mp3', true);

I have a situation where I'm using the FLVPlayback component and it starts off blank, meaning that it shows the video player skin but doesn't load a movie until prompted to do so. However, the progress bar in the skin is acting as if a movie is being loaded. I'd like to make it invisible or stop it until I need it, but I can't seem to target it. I've tried the following with no success.[code]
