Basically once my animation loads I want to pull in an external SWF at a specific frame, basically like the "home page" swf that will display first. Underneath that I will have "About Us, Contact, etc..." and those will each load an external SWF into my movie clip. My movieclip right now is called mcHolder. Here is the code I am currently using for the buttons:
Code:
//About Us Button
function test2(evt:Event):void{

I'm trying to monitor the currentframe of a movie so that when it goes to a specific frame, its loads the corresponding a picture out of an array dynamically using XML.
I think I have most of that loading part sorted out, the issue i think comes when i am looping code on the movieclip. I'm trying to set it up in such a way that if the currentframe remains the same, that it does nothing...this is so that it does not repeatedly load the same image over and over if the frame does not change.
I only want an image to load if the current frame has changed. I realise an example is in order so i posted the .fla and the .xml files in a zip file.

View 3 Repliesi'm trying to do a simple thing: a site where the background fades in and out between areas... ...and i'm trying it for a week...and still have no idea on whow to do it. i've seen many and many tutorials but there's no information regarding to loading movies in a specific frame!(like "call"-calling a specific action script frame?) here's what i have: a main movie (1frame) with 5 layers: actions, menu, bgone, bgtwo and border. and my problem is making the interaction between those areas, since i can't make the menu load the movies in the specific frames,to the specific layers... perhaps i'm just trying to find the wrong answers, or is is impossible?

I want to load a specific frame of external.swf into a main.swf
I'm trying to build a full flash site. I have movieA (main movie) that loads the rest of the movies (movieB, movieC, movieD...). MovieA is the menu. When I want to "come back" from this movies to the main movie, I need to move the header to a specific frame of movieA, diferent depending on the movie I have previously loaded:
movieA: loadmovie (movieB, movieC, movieD...)
from movieB: loadmovie movie A (frame2)
from movieC: loadmovie movie A (frame3)
from movieD: loadmovie movie A (frame4)
Is it possible or when you load a movie you can only start playing in frame 1?
I have just been to a really nice website that has some really nice use of Flash on it.... I'm totally wowed by the resizing picture effect though? When each picture loads the loading frame resizes to the new picture size.

is there a way with the loadmovie function that you can load a specific frame within the movie instead of starting at frame1?
what ive been using is:-
on (release) {

but this starts 'mymovie' at frame1, is there a way to get it to load the movie and start at frame 20?
I am using Flash CS3, Actionscript 2.
I need to load an external movie file into the root of my main movie, so it replaces the main movie, and when it loads, it loads at a specific frame (or label)of that newly loaded movie.
Explanation: My main movie, lets call it "Main.swf", has a button which is part of a drop down (tree) list. When you click on the button, I want to load my second movie called "bearings.swf", and to immediately go to frame #2 of the "bearings.swf" movie.
The title of my main file is "Gabriel96.fla". Inside this file I have a movie clip called "home movie". Inside this movie clip i have a button called "Symbol 32". Once this button gets clicked, I'd like it to go to frame "joe" which is inside a movie clip called "porrtfolio", which inside a separate file called "portfolio55.swf".

I have encountered an interesting problem when I try to load an .xml file using a URLLoader (within my own custom class). I have several configuration .xml files which I use to configure the application when it launches. For example, in the code below, myCustomLoader is a custom class I wrote that takes an .xml file as a parameter. The myCustomLoader class encapsulates all the instantiation of the URLLoader class and error handling etc. The code below operates as expected, the configuration files load into memory, and they're accessible throughout my App.
