I have a website created all in Flash AS3 and I have a XML Photo Gallery created in a separate file and I am trying to load the gallery into a specific frame on my site.
EDIT:Here is the code I am using:
[AS]var Xpos:Number = 152;
var Ypos:Number = 350;
var swf:MovieClip;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
[code]....
When I have the XML file in the same folder as the gallery (which it has to be) Flash gives me an error and the gallery doesn't show up. When I move the XML file though the gallery itself loads into the correct spot but the pictures don't because the XML file isnt there to call them.This is the error it gives me when the XML is in the same file as the gallery:
"Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file:///ANTHONY/Portfolio/Ggallery.xml
at Ggallery_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()"
This is my code:
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
addChild(loader);
var url:URLRequest = new URLRequest("/clientes/clientes_.swf");
loader.load(url);
I'm trying to load an external gallery. It works fine, but, the external gallery needs two xml files to work. My gallery with the xml are located in the folder "/clientes", and main swf is in root. When i load the swf gallery, the main swf load the xml files from the root, not in the folder clients, and is that what I need. I need to find a way to load the client_.swf an his xml files, all from the clientes folder.
I have one swf that was made by Wondershare Flash Gallery Factory Deluxe program, and some other files comes with it.
The problem is that when it loads into my main swf doesn't appear into the movieclip that i target to the code but on the stage, on top of all others, i don't know exactly what happens, it seems not to be in the display list!!!
The point is that i'd like a back button showing in front of the gallery in order to be able to close it and go back.
I am loading a photo gallery as an external swf.So I have a preloader for the ext swf that loads.Then there is a 3 - 4 second delay before the % preloader for the photo gallery starts to load.I'm loading it via xml - is it taking 3 - 4 seconds to read the xml page before the image starts to load?
View 6 Repliesim trying to load an external movie clip named gallery.swf (which is based on xml) to be loaded into my main movie...
it seems my external movie clip is replacing the main movie. i want it to be loaded inside it not in place of it.
here is the code of the gallery.swf:
[CODE]var imageArray = new Array();
imageXML = new XML();
imageXML.onLoad = function ()

Ive finished Kirupa's excellent Photogallery Tutorial and Im very happy with the result. I have exported the page as a SWF file and I now want to load it into my main page (essential in the design on my website). But when I do so the larger images do not show up! Strangely however, the title and the thumbnails are displayed - so the XML file is still being loaded. Additionally, the drop down menu I made also does not work.

I am buidling a website in which i am importing external movie clips (swfs) using actions script 2.0 all of my imported movie clips so far work fine, but when it comes to import the xml gallery the who website goes in a loop. here is the script i am using to load the external movie clips.
this.createEmptyMovieClip("container");
container.loadMovie("xmlgallery.swf");
stop();
is very basic but it works for what i am doing. the question is HOW DO I LOAD THE XML GALLERY if this basic script doesn't work for it is there another way to do it?

In my "actions" layer I have a function that loads a gallery of a external file called gallery.swf. The swf loads successfully but I cant remove that. The only way to remove is to call removeChild(mLoader.content); I noticed that the movies loads without addChild.
But sometimes also calling removeChild(mLoader.content) the content of mLoader is not removed and still appears in the stage.

How would you defer loading of other graphics on the page until after the images in a Flash gallery's images.xml file are finished loading?Is there any way to detect for this, or would I only be able to check if the flash swf object is finished loading? I'm pretty sure the swf object would be loaded/ready as with document.getElementById('flashobject').onload = function(){}; before the corresponding images have loaded though, instead of after.

It stacks at preloaders (wherever they are).What could it be going wrong? The gallery uses an xml file for loading externally the files.

I have a movieclip clip that plays when the movie starts, the movieclip is a visual assets that show's that the application is loading some information but it's not showing any loading progress, just playing while the assets are loaded.I created a for loop that will load the assets using a simple loader, and then when the object is loaded the application push the object to an array.Problem is that when the loading starts all the animation that i have on screen stops until the loading is finished.The whole point is that the animation will play while it's loading.
View 10 RepliesI spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla. In my main.fla, I have a code which loads the other two files. If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

[FMX] I am having trouble loading an XML file on an external server into my flash movie when it is uploaded. The data loads in fine when the flash file is on my local computer with the xml file on a server. As soon as the flash file is uploaded the XML data will not load in.

http:[url].....I am hosting the gallery externally, and loading it using 'loadMovie' into an empty movieclip.
Index.swf > Home.swf > Homeslideshow.swf
I have got the slideshow edited to suit my needs, and it loads perfectly upon first arriving at the home page.However, the problem occurs when I have been on another page (which is another external swf - lets say 'Index.swf > About.swf) and then returned to the home page (and its slideshow).
The images do not seem to show up, however I can see the load bar and the captions loading fine. On the other hand, sometimes I find the images load, but almost as if the Swf has loaded itself again behind the one previously loaded.There is obviously something (probably minor!) messing up, so please find attached my source files.
I used to do this fine with AS2 and now i'm struggling to get it to work in AS3.my code is as follows:
PW1.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK,loader1 );
//==================== PS function =============================================
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();

I have created a main "site.swf" file that loads a "default.swf" file into a container after a preloader. On this default.swf file I have buttons that needs to load new external SWF files in its place in the container. All of the external SWFs contain buttons and navigations that will also call up other external SWFs into this container. So, I would like to know how to program each button (some are movieclips as buttons) to unload itself and load the respective SWF into the container (eg. AboutUsButton to call up aboutus.swf into the container). I do not have a main navigation on the site.swf file bacause the navigation changes on each SWF that needs to be loaded into the container.

I have started putting together a flash based website to present my works. I am dynamically loading thumbnails and the larger companions using an XML file. Everything seems to work fine on my comp but when I upload it to my host sever the larger images do not want to load and on occasion a page of thumbnails doesnt want to load. My address is [URL]. Also the code I am using only places one image atop another, so when I click on a thumbnail it will place the larger image on top of the last it does not take the previous one away. which can be a problem if one image is smaller than the last. or if I wanted to load movie clips.
Here is the AS of one page.
//XML Trails stuff
//var to hold Tween;
var fadeTweenPhotoP1:Tween
// Creating image txtfield
var imageTextPhotoP1:TextField = new TextField();
// Instance of loader class
var imageLoaderPhotoP1:Loader;

i have a xml gallery with a mouse hover scroll bar which loads up photos. I want to have this movie clip load into a container in my menu movie clip but whenever i try nothing shows up. I can load other movie clips fine. I am guessing its something to do with the xml.
View 9 RepliesThe XML gallery I have has a pop-up window that appears after selecting a thumbnail. What I'm trying to accomplish is for the first picture in the gallery to load into the pop-up window, which is now always shown on the stage. I was able to make it so that the pop-up is always visible, but one thing I couldn't figure out is how to make it so that the first picture in the gallery loads into the pop-up box WITHOUT the user selecting the thumbnail first?I think it has to do with this code:
Code:
portfolio_xml.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
var gallery = this.firstChild.childNodes[index];
galleryInfo.text = this.firstChild.childNodes[index].attributes.title;
