I'm importing a series of images from an xml file, but for some reason they all get overriden by the last one. Here's a bare bones version of the code. I've been staring at this for a few hours now, hope you can make sense of it.

I want to have an swf load an image file in an image container within the swf from the querystring. 1. In the query string I'd like the extension of the image file to not show:
2. In the swf I might have more then one place where the same howdy.jpg loads, but in different sizes. Which method would keep the aspect ratio of original and resize to fit varying container sizes?
3. I have some javascript parsing code with an swf example that I got from this page. [URL] But when I tried to alter the fla for my use it didn't work. I wasn't able to find 1 line of actionscript in the query.fla.
I am trying to load a sereies of pictures moving accross the top from right to left.How do I load all of these photos in such a way that they seem to be stitched together like a piece of film strip at certain rate going accross?

View 5 Repliesi need to load a series of variables into a menu. seems easy, i've done many times. the thing is, i have to get them from an asp who asks for a parameter.So i tried this:
loadVariables("/medidores/txtflash.asp?pkey=c0321733a51ffa323f", 0, "GET");
but this not seems to work. So, i tried this instead:
send_data = new LoadVars();
send_data.pkey=c0321733a51e82fadc8b3f081ffa323f;
trace(send_data.pkey);
send_data.sendAndLoad("medidores/txtflash.asp", get_data, "POST");
does flash actually stores whatever is in txtflash.asp into "get_data"?
I have 9 movie clips which I want to load in random order, so that viewers who come to the webpage don't always see the same thing. I have them set up as 9 frames within another mc. I need EXCEPT it always displays the first one first, and then the rest in random order. I tried making the first frame empty, but then there was a big lag before it showed anything, because of the timer. Here's the script I used:
myMc.stop();
time = getTimer();
wait = 500;//1000ms = 1 second
_root.onEnterFrame = function(){

I have 3 flash movies: a.swf, b.swf and c.swf. And I create a main.swf to load those 3 movies orderly (from a to c).In the main.swf:- At frame 1, I put the script: loadMovie("a.swf","_root")- At frame 2, I did the similar job as with frame 1 with b.swf.Now the Flash Player only load the b.swf movie. There is no sign of a.swf to be loaded. Tho' I did unloadMovie a.swf before load this new one.
View 3 RepliesI have a Flash CS4 Professional version installed in my machine. Here is my problem.
1st - I'm importing an image to stage and set the width and height to match the image. (everything is good, no problem) 2nd - I am using the FLVPlayback components build-in from Flash CS4. It does load the video and everything. (everything seems good) 3rd - Publish the video to my local drive (everything seems good) 4th - I could play the video from my local pc and it loads fine and fast 5th - Upload everthing from my local folder to the Web server, it does display the background image but not the video. It has a white blank screen. What is going on? I copy the exact folder from local to server. What have I missed? How could I make the video to load?
working on making a flash program that loads about 1000 jpegs and then plays them like a movie. Have all the buttons and stuff working but the time it takes for an image to load is so high that the movie can't be played at 30 fps. I've tried multiple ways of fixing this
using 1 scrollpane and changing its source ever 30 ms. This one is the worst but simplest. Flickers cause strobing and it is unwatchable.
used 2 scrollpanes that were duplicates of each other until I had to load. I would then make that one invisible, load it , then make it visible. Then load the background one. Works but same problem as the first at high speeds, just less severe. used 1 scrollpane per image . This works great, except that it fails miserably on any more than 100 of them due to the number of objects.Currently using action script 3, but will change if its not possible in that.
Also, I want to be able to zoom in and then scroll around the window hence the scrollpanes, but if that's not possible its a sacrifice I'm willing to make
I've got a flash file with a series of videos in it, what I'm trying to get happen is that when I press 1,2,3,7,8 or 9 it'll take the viewer to one of the six videos, corresponding to the button pressed. I've got no experience with AS2.
View 1 Repliesresize function, basically I'm dragging out a series of images from an xml file, loading them into my loader_mc, and tabbing through the records with my previous and next buttons with the use of some caurina transitions (each image is positioned of stage in the x coordinate).All works a doozy, but I'm stumped with the resize thing,What I'm trying to achieve is to resize all images produced from the xml array proportionally ...I can't figure out how to do this.I would be very grateful for any tips, advice, solution etc...so that I can learn how to do this, no probs with as2...but need to forget about that now.

I'm trying to draw a series of external bitmaps descriped by an XML file.
[Code]...
Rather than draw out all of the images described in the XML file, it draws out the last file as many times as there are keys in the XML array (in this case, it draws the last image three times). When I just add it as an image, without having to load them as bitmaps objects, it works fine, but then it won't let me adjust the width and the height of the images.

View 1 RepliesI'm trying to load a radar image over a google map. The problem is, I'd like to load the image from a local file. I understand how to do this remoteley via a url, buit not from a local file. I've read something about embedding, but I don't know what embedding means. I'm going to need this image to change, and eventaully want to have a loop of images playing over the map. Below is what I have so far. You can see I've commented out the line with the url loading, and have a fail attempt at loading locally below it.[code]...

View 3 RepliesI wrote these functions which I use in conjunction to scale down some BitmapData and save it as a PNG. However, the scaledImage.draw(originalImage, scalingMatrix, null, null, null, true); line with smoothing set to true does not have the intended smoothing effect when I save the bitmap data as a PNG using the second function. The resulting image file is not antialiased at all. Is there anything I'm doing wrong here?
public static function scaleImage(originalImage:BitmapData, size:int):BitmapData
{
// Calculate the scaled size.

View 1 RepliesI have just started with creating Drawing Pad, which can save and reload the image drawn once. I have completed the basic interface which includes drawing and erasing part. I am storing the co-ordinates in a text file. I am using MultiDimensional Array to store X,Y co-ordinates. But now I am facing a problem that how to load these variables into the flash back and using these redraw the image. I tried using 'loadvars', but it didn't helped me as it doesn't return string data. Can somebody help me in this so that I can load co-ordinates from text file and redraw the image.
