ActionScript 3.0 :: Load XML In Order In A For Loop
Apr 26, 2011
i have a XML file with 10 links to images... what i want is to make flash load them and add them in the order they are written in the xml... so i came up with the code for that using Event.COMPLETE & if (stage.contains(something)) the thing is, my aim is to shorten my code and make it more professional using a for loop instead of repeating the code over and over... but all my trials were unsuccessful.how can i put my code in for loop.[code]

I'm trying to make a bit stream across my page when you mouseover a button. The bit stream can be quite long, so I wouldn't think to do it by hand. I'm wondering how I would go about making the stream start out, and how I can get each bit to follow the other right behind it. (They're about 10 pixels wide). I can get the for loop to duplicate the clips, but I can't seem to get them in order.

I have an array, and, when I use the for...in loop to add each element to a string in order, it appears to list them in descending rather than ascending order. I want to know if this is what its supposed to do and how i might be able to make it go in the right order.

Currently I am trying to load 5 different swfs in order. Everytime a button is selected I want to move to the next swf. And once I reach 5 the next image should be 1 (again - loop). I started with a code like this on frame 1 in "scene 1":
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = 1;
where "_root.j = 1" ----- "1" is the first swf loaded. But it was stuck on 1.
My newbie skills figured this out so to avoid zero, but it's random. And things repeat too closely.
Code:
gotoAndPlay(50);
Stage.align = "T";
Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
_root.j = random(4)+1;
My Question: What can "_root.j" equal so that 1,2,3,4,5 cycles? I have to work within these parameters cause this template is deep.

I'm loading several pictures into my movie. How can I set the order of which one should appear first? Do I add an listener or how should I do it?

I have an image gallery of 6 images on a frame of my timeline. what I want to happen is instead of all images trying to load up at the same time when at that point in the timeline I want the 1st image to process and load then move on to the 2nd image here is how I am loading those images.
location1.loadMovie ("image1.jpg");
location2.loadMovie ("image2.jpg");
location3.loadMovie (image3.jpg");
and so on.
can I edit this code somehow so that the 2nd through 6th images do not load until image 1st is fully loaded and so on.

I have a gallery set up with three primary images. Clicking a primary image brings up it's specific subset of alternate views for the product.
I've managed to get the loading and placement down as I need it, but the images are not loading in the correct order. I've tried several solutions, the current one is that an array of each Sub Image is processed in order. It looks kinda of sloppy but image 1 loads, and when image 1 is complete, image 2 loads. After each image loads, it is put into another array. This array is used to resize and place the files. However when I do so, instead of the placement order being
item[0]
item[1]
item[2]
item[3]
item[4]
it keeps ending up like this:
item[4]
item[2]
item[1]
item[3]
item[0]
Here is the relevant code. When the following function starts with sArray, the items are confirmed to be in order.
Code:
function loadSubs(e:MouseEvent):void//LOAD SUBD
{
clearGallery();

I have a group of Movieclips that I want to load in a random order, until they are all loaded. In other words, when the movie starts, a random MC of the bunch would load, followed by another random, and on until they are all loaded.Right now I have the MCs with a quick alpha fade in onLoad, problem is they all load at the same time, but what I'm trying for is an organic type of loading, like they're blooming up all over the place.

I was wondering if there was a way to specify the order in which I load in external swfs. I have my main swf which loads in music, navigation and content, they all load at the same time, say i wanted to load in the music swf after the content has finished loading, how would i do that?

When a SWF is downloading/streaming, what is the load and run order?
Am I right that the first thing downloaded is the main timeline as defined by the document class, and the document class's constructor is the first thing run? Or does the SWF wait untill the first frame is loaded and run the actionscript located there first? In that case, what about SWF based on a Sprite instead of a MovieClip?
I'm trying to make a swf that preloads itself, so I want to make sure the first thing that happens is that it stops and displays the preloader and its associated assets. I'm worried that the preloader might take so long to load that it doesn't display immediately, leaving the user wondering why there's no preloader preloader...

I have 9 movie clips which I want to load in random order, so that viewers who come to the webpage don't always see the same thing. I have them set up as 9 frames within another mc. I need EXCEPT it always displays the first one first, and then the rest in random order. I tried making the first frame empty, but then there was a big lag before it showed anything, because of the timer. Here's the script I used:
myMc.stop();
time = getTimer();
wait = 500;//1000ms = 1 second
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){

I was taking a look at this great site at the link interior Design. How it's done that gallery? I noticed that the pictures are loaded in order, before they are asked to be shown. When the user clicks on the number of the image, it has already been loaded by the swf.

I have a small gallery that loads thumbnails and the links they represent from an xml file. When I test it gallery on my computer everything works fine. However, when I simulate a download or when I upload to an actual site things start going wrong.[URL]I modified what i needed too and reused the rest. Everything works fine except for that the load order of the thumbnails is reversed. I haven't really changed any part of the code that would cause this, or at least I don't think I have.
The real problem, however, is that when i simulate a downloaded version or when upload them to my test site, the position of the thumbnails are swapped. A thumbnail i expected to load in a certain place and order has now taken the place of another one. When clicking a thumbnail it displays the picture of the thumbnail that should actually have been there, so the links still load in the correct order.When i change the simulated bandwidth while testing the movie, the position alter. At one bandwidth they show up in a certain order and when then trying out another bandwidth the order changes.
The XML load function:
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
var xnRootNode:XMLNode = this;
//trace( xnRootNode );

The images are to go from 1 - 20 ... Left to Right on stage. The images are named image_1 - 20 and everything is right as far as that's concerned.
Will images load according to their size before XML order? I'm loading multiple images from XML like so:
Code:
XML...
function formatXMLContent():void {
for (var i:int = 0; i < tourID.length(); i++) {
var loader:Loader = new Loader();

loadData(url);

I am creating an order form for my flash site. I have never done this before in flash but I have in visual basic. I have a few questions:
1. Is assigning variable names to checkboxes and radio buttons the same as in visual basic? I mean i know that you probably assign them in the properties. ex..say i name a radio button 'radio1', to run a check in my actionscript whether radio1 was checked or not would it be something like if(radio1){}
2. After the person fills out the form I would like to have the results of the order sent to a pre-specified email adress in a certain format. What would be a good way to do this?

how I would be able to add listeners to the stage using a for loop. currently my code looks like this, it is being called when the document opens.
var i:Number;
for(i=1;i<8;i++){
thumbselect.thumb"+i+".addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, images"+i+");
}
That is not working. I tried quoting the whole thing, that did not work. I did trace it like this: trace(' thumbselect.thumb"+i+".addEventListener(MouseEvent .CLICK, images"+i+")')
and the trace came out with the correct strings.

I am working on a gallery, the contents of which is arranged into categories and sub-categories. So, each category has a folder and sub-folders.
I have an xml file in the root directory which I'm using to create a menu. When the visitor clicks a button in the menu, the relevant set of images will appear (only one set at a time).
But, the thing I'm confused with is this...
If each sub-folder contains an xml list of images, should I
a.)load all the xml files right away? Into an array, for example, which will hold all the data? If so, How can I load xml files in a loop? And is this the right approach if there are a lot of files to include? Or,
b.)Is it possible to load the xml from each button and have it override the previous xml?
The code below loads an xml when the first button is pressed, but after that it does nothing!
Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;

I'm making a highscore table in flash using AS3, I have successfully got working code that displays the names and the scores but also part of my high score table it needs to display the users country flag. The images for the flags are stored on a remote server.
Now I know how to load in a single image and add it to my movie clip but things get very complicated when I want to load in 20+ by iterating through a loop. I've looked at many examples and just cant adopt the sample code to work for me. Anyway without a further a do here is what I have so far.
