ActionScript 3.0 :: SlideShow Gallery In A Website
Mar 7, 2011
I've made a website using AS3 in CS5 Flash, I then decided to add a 'Slideshow Gallery' into the site. I made a new page, called it 'gallery' (this page is made from frames 73-86) and then looked at making a slideshow. The first one I made was from this site; [URL]
I've made a website using AS3 in CS5 Flash, I then decided to add a 'Slideshow Gallery' into the site. I made a new page, called it 'gallery' (this page is made from frames 73-86) and then looked at making a slideshow.[code]...
I understand that there are many methods to creating a slideshow on a website, but that isn't my question. What I really want to know is what is the most mainstream method of creating a slideshow on a website.What do you recommend?So far I've seen Jquery, Javascript, CSS & DHTML, and Flash. The first thing that comes to mind for me is flash, then second Javascript.
The photographer at this site [URL] wants me to modify the slideshow on the home page. He wants to replace some of the old photos with new ones. Can I do this with Adobe Flash CS3? If so, please point me to tutorials that will get me up to speed. Or maybe it's too difficult for a Flash newbie?
i am making a website for a client, and i have created a template system which reads different XML files as the user clicks on different menu options.The same template is being used on all the menus (with different xml files).
This template has a slideshow feature which is behaving abruptly, sometimes it cross fades to the next image properly and the other times it just stops working or cross fades extremely fast.I have tried and tested the code for bugs many times, but as i am new to as3, cant seem to get the right solution.
I personally feel that the swf template is not being unloaded when a new menu item is clicked(and the new xml is loaded), then there is some sort of a conflict between the new and old code and it ultimately breaks up.
i am relatively new to flash and actionscript 3 but i have been recently making a website and i have got to a stage where one page is pulling in SWF's via an XML document. There are left and right arrows which load up the next/previous SWF. The right arrow works fine, it loads the next one up and then due to some AS3 code when it gets to the end it loops back around. The left arrow goes back a frame until it comes to the beginning and it wont loop to the end. Below is a copy of the code that i am using. I am aware that i need to create the event listener for the arrow and i am fine with that, its just the function to go with it that i am struggling with.
I'm trying to create a slideshow in a gallery. I managed to make it work but only if you first click on the slideshow button and then you click on one of the thumbnails. I haven't been able to do just by clicking on the slideshow button. This is the code I used in summary:
Code: package galery { public class GaleriaFotos{ public function GaleriaFotos() {
First off let me say that this forum is a lifesaver. I managed to figure out the links in xml file myself, but I cant seem to get the next/previous buttons working the way I want them to. I have got them to work to the point where they will bring up the next image, this is until it gets to the end of the xml node, then it wont start over from the beginning if I hit next. Here is my code:
anyone know of a good tutorial with more albums, slideshow on/off, setting timer, and maybe transitions. Could some off this also be set in a config.file?
I just completed a great tutorial on doing an xml slideshow at URL...Would love to add a timer function by adding a button called auto slide show which lets the user select it and have the slideshow automatically fade in and out all the images in the xml file. I think this could be achived using the get timer function but not quite sure how to integrate it.

I purchased a slideshow/bannner online and cannot get it to work on my main flash document.In CS4 I click on the homepage 1st key frame then from the library I drag the banner_mc into the homepage stage.
Is it possible to load a Flickr slideshow into a Flash website?
I know you can load it into an HTML page, but I want to load it into my 100% Flash website. However, I can't get this to work. I picked apart the HTML embed code and pieced it back together as a URL that gets me exactly what I want, but Flash will not do anything with it.
Here is the code I am using:
Code: Select allvar loader:Loader = new Loader(); btn_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick); function btnClick(e:MouseEvent):void{ loader.load(new URLRequest(root.loaderInfo.parameters.flickrURL +
I have two buttons which can switch through photos (previous, next). But I also want to play the gallery on it's own. Just like a slideshow. The buttons though need to function properly!
how would I go about preloading these images right before they can be accessed and so it doesn't screw up (i.e.) press back button too many times fast and the pictures don't animate..would it be something where I would preload every image separately and have if else statements.
I want to make the scroller vertical for this very impressive XML: [URL]. I've been trying and have been getting somewhat close to accomplishing this but I feel like I'm hacking up the code to get there.
So I inherited a website which uses actionscript to present a series of photographs in a slideshow. I do not have any sort of grasp on actionscript.where in the following script the SPEED of the slideshow is controled? I need to slow it down.this._lockroot = true;
stop(); _root.pathToPics = "advertising_big/"; // fill this array with your pics
make a button to load an input text field for email addresses
I am new to Flash AS3 and I was following a tutorial from Lynda.com to build my website. Realized there were some things I wanted to do that they didn't have in their tutorial but I searched the net and figured it out. Now I am stuck again.
I recently made a slideshow in Fireworks and want to it to load when a user clicks to the Portfolio page on my time line. Fireworks exports the gallery into an xml and index.html that has code to automatically load the swf that contains the slide show.
I am trying to create a slideshow from a premade gallery script I found once. The reason for using it was its ease of use. However I have encountered some issues that I really want this slideshow to have.
1. Automatic Change to the next image with a Pause Button.2. Also I want to understand how the desc_text instance reads the <Caption> tags in the XML. I intend to have a Heading Option as well, but I can't seem to find a logical answer to do it.
function loadXML(loaded) { if (loaded) { xmlNode = this.firstChild;[code].....................
I've got a little test swf showing what I've made so far: [URL] What I'm wondering is how to add a play and stop button to this, I've set it up as separate scenes for each image, but my concerns are when there are maybe 20 or so images to flick through, some users may prefer to just click play, as is common and let it do it automatically...(but I don't want it to load playing) I'm not sure how you'd go about producing a script that starts playing on press of the play button from whatever scene you're on
I'm using a version of XML Slideshow Photogallery that loads slideshow.swf (and other pages) into master.swf. It plays good the first time through and when I trace myInterval, I can see it increment 1,2,3 ... with each slide. When I go to another page and then come back to the slideshow - the myInterval will skip a couple or I get 2 values at the same time. This causes the slideshow to display every other image (or every 3, etc). I can see that the problem is from not clearing the myInterval variable properly. The clearInterval(myInterval); function seems to just clear the last instance created. Is there a way to clear all instances?
I am not a programmer, but have managed to combine the slideshow, image gallery and hover features of the provided scripts to create a slideshow that you can control with the previous and next buttons. I have also been able to connect it to an access database so you can control the images / info through Content Management console. once this has been sorted I will post the code here, if its any use to anyone. Here is the script!
i'm trying to modify the slideshow for multiple xml gallery. I have the code on the first frame and I want to load another xml (aria.xml) ,but if I use
I'm working on an xml driven flash website where clients can modify an xml file directly to change the appearance of the site (eventually i'll make a flash/php dashboard GUI). The site will have listings each with a photo.I'm trying to find a way around having the clients have to crop images to thumbnail and enlarged view size themselves. In other words the images would be displayed scaled to fit within a movie clip.
I'm building a site in flash using as3. I implemented an xml slideshow on the home page but it wont disappear when changing pages. Anyone could tell me how to remove it on other pages?
I am trying to use rhamejs slideshow (located here) and I would like to move the scroller to a certain position on the stage but I'm not sure how to do it. My stage is 900px wide with a nav bar along the bottom. All I want to do is move the scroller to the right of my nav buttons and left of another button that is in the far right corner. I would like to stay within that space which expands depending on your browser/screen size. The main stage is set up to resize based on browser/screen size and all the nav buttons are anchored. I basically need the left edge of the scroller to be 535px from the left edge of the stage at all timesI need the right edge of the scroller to be 185px from the right edge of the stage at all times. I have tried editing these lines but after the width of your window gets to a certain point, the thumbs stop scrolling or disapear completely:
Does anyone have a link to a tutorial that will show me how to make an image gallery that has an automatic slideshow with manual controls, a multi-page thumbnail bank with manual controls, and a preloading system that would be good for about 160 images at about 1024x680? I don't really know any useful actionscript, and I've managed to find a hodge-podge of tutorials but I don't know how to tie in all the parts to make what I want.[url]...
how can I modify the embedded photo gallery slideshow from Google's Picasa to auto repeat the pictures, i.e. play them over and over again? This is the code Picasa gives me for embedding in a website:
Related to this, are there free tools that take as input a Picasa username or a set of photos and automatically create a thumbnailed gallery, which is embeddable using Flash in any website?
