I'd like to load the images in the folder dynamically without using XML.
Is there a mechanism in AS3 that enables me to read directly the content of images folder directly without using XML or should I use php to do that?
I would like to display all images from a folder in a slideshow without having to specify every file name specifically using CS4 - AS3.

How can I do that from FLASH using Action-script 3?[code]...
I am using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 2.0.I want to make a photo.jpg that is in my images folder load into a swf that is in a swf folder. It works fine when I have the photo.jpg in the same folder as the swf. But it does not work when I have the photo.jpg in a different folder. What must I do to the AS2 to make this happen? Here is the path: mcLoader.loadClip("swf/images/photo1.jpg",mcHolder);

View 3 RepliesMy teacher gave me the task of making an interactive touch screen flash for an open day at my school, i can easily do most of the things to make this work but two things evade me.
He wants the writing in a word document linked so he can easily change what the document says without re exporting the flash.
He also wants me to be able to make the pictures from a document appear in a slideshow without adding each individual picture in a random order as a screen saver effect.

View 9 Replieswhat I want to do is from my application, login to a website and retrieve information from my login and populate the relative fields on my screen, be able to make a change on my app screen then upload the changes to the website. To be able to make changes from an app would be a great help and save a lot of time rather than constantly logging into the website through a browser.
I've searched a lot on google regarding logging into websites but haven't had much luck in finding something I can use. It seems like a simple idea but it's obviously not something people use often.
I need to know how to read .xlsx file contents in flex3.
I tried to read .xlsx file using the below sample code but its not working, but its working fine for .xls file.[code]...
I'm just beginning to learn actionscript (I'm using Flash CS4).There's this little project I'm working on as part of my learning activities.I have a folder with 12 jpgs and I want to randomly load 6 of them into 6 mc's that I already have in my stage. I say randomly because I would like to have different images everytime I play my little movie. I know that if the jpgs names where somewhat serialized (i.e. "pic1.jpg", "pic2.jpg", etc.) I could easily do it by creating a variable to contain the numeric part of the name and concatenate it with the rest of the name (or something like that).
The name of my jpgs are pure strings (like "basketball", "soccer", etc.).Can I (via actionscript) read those names and push them into an array even though the names are pure alphabetical strings?If this is possible, I think I can figure out the randomizing after pushing the names into the array.
I have created 2 textfields: an input textfield at level 0 with an instance name of input_txt and a dynamic txt box in a loaded movie at level 20 with an instance name of output_txt. How do I get the text that is input into level 0 to appear into the textbox at level 20?

View 4 RepliesI'm using flash 8 and slideshowzilla to make a 3d /2d gallery site. Ok, here's what I have so far. I have one folder named 3d and another named 2d.

(see image) In flash 8 I have the 2dimages.swf and 3dimages.swf set in loaders and it all works fine but i get a "Error opening URL 'file:///C|/slides.xml' and the gallery won't play because the slides.xml file that it's looking for is in each folder. how do I get flash to read the slides.xml file thats in each folder?
View 1 RepliesI have a slight issue generating a swf using the flash IDE. I can import c300 images via the 'Import To Stage' option but then the program crashes and dies as it runs out of memory.
Is there a way to create a swf by reading a folder of images? PHP is a possibility but the swf capabilities are limited.
I'm not sure what's going on...basically, I have a flash file that loads images from a xml file and this works fine without any problems. But when I try to load the swf file into html, the images only load if the html file is in the same folder as the swf.I'm not sure if this is related to a problem with the xml link in the swf file or something else... this is how the xml is being called from the swf:
Code:
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;

View 2 RepliesI'd like to tell a movie clip to look into a specific folder (via url or whatever) and load all images from that folder into the movie clip. I do not want to have to give the movie the exact address of each image, as they files may change / be added to over time.
i know in AS3 i have to use the loader class and then the addChild to put the loaded stuff into the movie (and thats all i know), but i just dont know how to get all available images blindly.
I want to create a flash app where the site owner can simply put images in a folder, and the flash app finds all the images in the folder, and will display a slide show from them.
Is there any way to list all files in a folder, so I can load them without prior knowledge of their names? I'd prefer not to have to tell a dumb customer what an XML file is and how to edit it, and also the images need to keep their original names so I can get titles for the images from the names.
What is the most simple way of loading whatever images are in folder and displaying them? If possible, not using xml/php/asp.

View 1 RepliesI just want to count how many images in a folder.
.asp, php or any script, which can count no. of image in a folder, so that i can call that value to flash.
For now, i m doing this with the text file, but i manually have to enter a value for no. of images in that text file. Instead of that, I want that my script should count no. images in that folder.
Instead of plugging the paths to each individual jpg or gif into the XML. How would I get flash to load every jpg within a folder without considering the technical stuff.
