ActionScript 2.0 :: Calling Childnodes From XML Driven Drop Down Menu?
Jun 9, 2008I am trying to use Kirupa's XML drop down menu(action script 2.0): aka: [URL] however I cannot have it output the childNode. This is because it is using a for loop with the curr_item variable. when I try to trace the for loop count variable, it just returns the last for loop variable. I basically want it so that when I click on a button on the 3rd tier submenu, I want it to output all the prior tiers that the button belongs in.

ActionScript 2.0 :: "active" State In XML Driven Drop Down Menu?
Dec 11, 2005I've used the tutorial for the XML Driven Drop Down Menu to create the main navigation for a site i'm doing, it's all working fine except I want to keep the 'current' area highlighted after it's clicked on. The rollOver events are defined in the AS but when I tried adding a function to change the colour of the item it either had no effect or broke the nav eHere is the code (from Sen's tutorial modified with new actions):
Code:
// generates a list of menu items (effectively one menu)
// given the inputted parameters. This makes the main menu

View 1 RepliesActionScript 3.0 :: XML Driven Menu Into Flash
Feb 28, 2012I've been hunting for tutorials on XML driven AS3 menus. I've found some really cool stuff, but nothing that does what I want, and most don't really explain the "hows' involved in getting the XML into the flash. I want to dynamically load menu buttons based upon an xml document in horizontal fashion with sub menus that load 10px down and to the right of the main menu button. With each item in the sub menu filing to the right. I'd also like to have that light up bar track the main buttons so that as the mouse moves over the bar slides to it.
Here's the code for the bar:
ActionScript Code:
import fl.transitions.Tween;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
button_mc.buttonMode = true;
button2_mc.buttonMode = true;
button_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, hover);
button2_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, hover);
function hover(e:MouseEvent):void {
new Tween(bar_mc,"x",Strong.easeOut,bar_mc.x,e.currentTarget.x,1,true);
}
Most of the XML driven code I have found obviously doesn't have a static instance name and use addChild()

Sep 10, 2010I have been following and bastardising a computer arts tutorial for a dynamic flash site, its a really good tutorial and I'd like to keep going with that format/style, but I'm pretty new to the whole scripting thing and am finding it a bit of a headache, so was wondering if any kind souls would help me work out how to add submenus to the code below.the main menu button is a movie file(btn_projects_main) consisting of a button (button) and a text box(txt) and is 3 frames long to allow for the different states: What I'm looking for is a set of sub menus which load horizontally below the main menu buttons, here is the code which has been altered slightly (thanks to Ned Murphy for his help and patience with that)

ActionScript 3.0 :: Kill Broswer Cache In XML-driven Menu?
Jan 6, 2011I would like to use an XML-driven menu on my site and everything works fine so far, but the XML is connected to a CMS, meaning new menu items can be created through the CMS and added to the Flash menu. That's works, too. Here is the problem: Browsers usually caches XML files,to modify the line where Flash retrieves the XML file:e.g. instead of getting: 'menu.xml'. It should more look like this: menu.xml?'+Math.random(),(or whatever is the exact syntax for a random number is in AS. This would kill the cache, correct?Here is the AS code:
// declare the package
package com {

ActionScript 2.0 :: Basic XML Driven Menu - Button Pointing To Same SWF

Problem is, when I trace my variables desc and swfURL they are correct, and the numbers on the buttons work fine as well, only when I click on the buttons all of them point to the last post in my XML, i.e., buttons 1,2,3,4,5 all point to swf 5.
Code:
function skapaMeny(menu_xml) {
var proj:Array = menu_xml.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes;
for (var i=0; i<proj.length; i++) {
var desc = proj[i].firstChild.childNodes;
var swfURL = proj[i].firstChild.nextSibling.childNodes;

Feb 7, 2010well i have a problem to which there are lots of related searches over the net but none could solve it. well the problem is that i have an XML driven carousel menu that needs to be loaded using the preloader. After the load is complete i can find my swf menu's backgound and the static buttons getting loaded but the buttons that should load in the carousel using xml are not present.
I have come across the even ADDED_TO_STAGE to load the swf once it has completed its dynamic loading. But they have used it in the documentation class for thier project. I am not using any separate actionscript file.All my code is written in the 1st frame of my project .... I really need a solution to this problem
