ActionScript 3.0 :: Creating A Gallery Page / Similar To Thickbox Or Lightbox
Sep 16, 2010
I'm working on a script that is about finished but I've reached a snag.I'm creating a gallery page, similar to Thickbox or Lightbox.I have thumbnails off to the left and a UILoader on the right.When you click a thumbnail, the image loads on the left.What I'm working on now is that if you hover over the right side of the image you get a NextBtn and on the left you'd get a PrevBtn.The buttons are created and tween in on MOUSE_OVER like they are supposed to. The problem that I'm having is once you MOUSE_DOWN and the next image loads (also working properly) the Tween that is on the Prev/ NextBtns resets to the OUT position until you mouse outside the rollover than back in.Is there any way to make the Tween stay IN until the mouse moves out?[code]

I'm searching something similar to the lightbox effect in javascript, but for flash.
I already tried succesfully "flash lightbox v2" (http://blog.alancurtis.it/tag/flash/) but I'm searching something native for flash, without javascript.

First of all I've only registered recently but read a lot of the pages on this forum. It's great!I've been working with the xml gallery with thumbs to get to a cool flash gallery. A lot worked out for me and I think I came very far. There's just one thing. I want a popup in it. BUT, not just a regular popup; i figured that out as well. I would like a popup in "Thickbox" style. Don't know if you know it.
With Thickbox [URL] you can open a new window with content that seems to float.I've been trying to get this working with my Flash gallery. Normally you just add a class=thickbox attribute to the link, but in this case it's in actionscript. And that;s the prob. I can't seem to get this to work.

I've made a gallery slideshow before but wasn't as intuitive looking back at it now and I want to start fresh on this new project. I would like to convert a jQuery lightbox style gallery into a flash XML based AS3 image gallery with categories. I don't want to code the FLA, I want separate AS files.
This is a school project for my website. I would use jQuery and I have more experience with it but this project needs a flash component. I'm just not sure where to start and looking for some advice on how and where I could find resources. I want it to be minimal as I can make it;
- 8 thumbnails to a "page/section" with more flowed into page 2 or 3 etc. (or a srcoller)
- a few buttons for categories
- images fading in full size with a description when hovered over and a close button
- preloader (simple bar)
Esentially something like this > http:[url].........works which is using http:[url].... for the thumbnails. That might be ambitious but I'd suffice with a simple fade effect.I've downloaded some galleries out there but most of the code is messy or outdated.http:[url]... this is alright, but all the code is done in the FLA. I might break it into AS files but it depends.

After working for a prolonged time on a programming problem, I start to get coding tunnel vision. It makes it harder to draw back and look at the problem from farther away. Hence my question: I am using a Drupal 6 site. When a menu option is clicked, the page opens and a Flash SWF file needs to played in a ThickBox. After 8 seconds, that Thickbox closes.
Opening the SWF file in the Thickbox when a link is clicked is no problem, just like closing the Thickbox afterwards; that's basic javascript. For that I use these:
[Code]...
But opening the Thickbox on load? I can add a link for the user to click, but it should open automatically. I figured out the PHP to have it only open on one specific page. From the Thickbox manual, I learned to open links to images - but not how to open it when the page loads.

creating an image gallery for my site. Please see my photo link:I want all the thumbnail btns on the left to load the large photos on the right. For 3 of the thumbnails, I need to show more than 1 image so I created numeric btns underneath the large images that will load photo 1, photo 2 etc. The issue that I can only get this to work on layer 1 and 2, when I try to do this for another thumbnail I get this error:"TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.t press2_fla::MainTimeline/frame1()"This is the basic script that I am using for all my thumbnails:
ezo1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playezomag) ;
function playezomag(event:MouseEvent):void{
gotoAndStop("fefe1");

want to load a lightbox gallery from within a flash .swf i no its possible because iv seen it done many times, and iv tried every tutorial on the net, most of which say the same thing, which I have done and it still doesnt work.So far I have created a javascript delegate which turns the flash command getURL into an anchor tag containing a rel="" attribute. Here is my javascript:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function LightboxDelegate(url,caption) {
var objLink = document.createElement('a');
[code]...
I have then used a flash button to call the javascript function, in theory this should load my lightbox, however all that happens is the flash swf disappears and no lightbox overlay or image appears. I no that fksh objects do disappear when lightbox loads, however mine doesnt load. My ActionScipt on the flash button is as so:
Actionscript Code:
on (release) {getURL("javascript:LightboxDelegate('1.jpg','caption1')", "_self")}

i'm trying to build a flash site and ran into a problem... i have a gallery page with a bunch of page numbers at the top. when you click on one, a movieclip loads of some images coming in.so the problem i'm having is that i made a little animation for when you roll the mouse over the page number (they scale up when the mouse is over, scale back when the cursor moves away)... what it's doing is when you roll over, it goes to a certain frame in the timeline and plays that animation.that's all working cool, but i need it to not do that once it's clicked on. so basically when you actually click on a page number, the over script should stop until you go to another page... here's the code i've written,
function over(event:MouseEvent):void {
this.gotoAndPlay(30);}
function out(event:MouseEvent):void {[code].....

I Managed to insert a photo gallery using lightbox...however, would like to make some changes:
1. Fixed previous and next buttons, been playing around with the code, with no successful result.
2. I have a group of photos, and if I want to enlarge the one I click, I cannot. Whatever photo I click, always the first one of the group appears.
This is the code I have in my html file:
HTML Code:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/lightbox.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<script src="js/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/lightbox.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I am trying to build an xml photo gallery in flash that will use lightbox for viewing large images. I have successfully built the thumbnail portion.My goal is to insert the swf into an HTML page and launch lightbox from the swf. Here is the code: First I use a Thumbnails class which imports the tweener class
Code:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import fl.containers.UILoader;[code]....
how do I get lightbox to work when I click on the thumbnails? I found this thing called lightboxinjector that seems like it would work, but I am not advanced enough to understand the directions it gives for dynamic use. Or is there a lightbox clone that will work for this?

You define a few states for your control, and then can set child controls to only appear in certain states. Check out this code:
<s:states>
<s:State name="signin"/>
<s:State name="register"/>
</s:states>
[code]...
Now the last name form will only appear in the register screen. This would be really useful I think in .NET where you use the page for views like update / insert. I was considering extending the Page element to have a states property using extension methods, and adding the include in to controls. This way I could auto-hide controls based on the current view at render time.
What is even cooler in Flex, is that you can use different handlers / properties based on the current state.
<s:Button label="Sign in" label.register="Register" id="loginButton"
enabled="true" click.signin="signin()" click.register="register()"/>

This may sound like a dumb question, but how would I make a swf file display an html page similar to what an IFrame does? Would I have to use a Javascript command to have a window pop up when the movie is Loaded?

I'm trying to achieve a scrolling effect like this one.[URL].. I'm trying to achieve a scrolling effect similar to that where the page will scroll with the mouse and rotate like that, also have a maximum scroll and rotation, but also be able to be pushed aside for sub content.
I'm obviously not asking anyone to build the whole thing for me, just point me in the right direction.

How to trigger thickbox from onRelease() event in flash.

Mar 4, 2007
I am a n00b and was wondering if there was way to trigger the popularly useful thickbox (javascript to display a lightbox-style HTML page) from a link embedded in a Flash movie? I have a website that is all Flash and want to display thickbox formatted HTML content from a text hyperlink in the movie using actionscript.
Here's an example of how the hyperlink is formatted in HTML:
<a href="ajaxLogin.htm?height=100&width=250" class="thickbox" title="Please Sign In">login</a
Is there an action script equivalent to the above?
If possible, can anyone point me in the right direction or give an example of the code:
The thickbox script can be found at: [URL]..

If you ever wondered how to implement a shadowbox or thickbox in flash then look no further!
shadowbox --> http://mjijackson.com/shadowbox/
thickbox --> http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/
Here are two examples I did the shadowbox and someone else did the thickbox sorry i forgot source - if it is yours please let me know and I will acknowledge From my experience on using both of them, i found that a shadowbox is a much better option.
Shadowbox uses javascript to hide the swf object when shadowbox is open - can display flash movies in shadowbox itself. Thickbox relies on wmode = 'transparent' to show the thickbox on top of the flash - very crude solution which slows your framerate down alot and doesnt work in all browsers.

i have an directory of images saved on the server... i want to use the tilelist component to display them all ... either by xml.. or by direct load all images if this is possible..the images are made and stored by a filename of date and time.. as an example "1305549409.jpg".so could be a pain to automatically update xml..
once an image is clicked in the tile list i want this to load up full screen, is this possible......OR is there a way to make a flash gallery using all the images form a directory.. direct loading all the images to placeholders.. or even a random set of images..

The end product should look like: Scrolling thumbnails along the bottom (or side) of the page, scrolls controlled by users mouse.If the user clicks on a thumbnail a larger version of the image loads above or to the side.So far:I have the scrolling images doing as I want! The thumbnails are all buttons.
The problem:I can't get the larger image to load. I have tried creating a movie clip with the larger image in and attaching an Attach Movie script to the button - but it doesn't work.Using Flash MX 2004 and I am not fluent in Action Script - so far I use tutorials and try to alter script to fit what I am after.
