I have an external swf which is a basic (very) photo gallery. When I load this external swf into the main swf container it only displays the first image although it goes through the motions of getting the next image - only to again display the first image. In desperation I have put the swf, images and xml into the same directory as the container but no luck.... Run separately it does what it's supposed to.

View 1 RepliesI am loading an external swf photo gallery.Right now I am using a preloader to show up before the external swf is loaded. The preloader is in my main file.My problem is this - once the external swf is loaded, it still takes a couple of seconds before my photo gallery shows up.How can I avoid using 2 preloaders (one in my main file and one in the external swf)
View 1 RepliesI am loading a photo gallery as an external swf.So I have a preloader for the ext swf that loads.Then there is a 3 - 4 second delay before the % preloader for the photo gallery starts to load.I'm loading it via xml - is it taking 3 - 4 seconds to read the xml page before the image starts to load?

I was trying to use the photo gallery tutorial from this site the code was done by sbeener I wanted to use the same concept for adding external text for each image. So far I have only been able to figure out how to load the text but I have not figured out how to be able to change the text to correspond to the image.

I've built a flash photo gallery that pulls image urls from an external XML file. The gallery has different image catagories that load their own set of images.The user decided which catatgory they'd like to view by clicking an HTML button in the flash movies parent page...using javascript, this button click sends a variable to the root level of the flash movies with the new XML location...
Trouble is, onces the initial XML file is loaded, the movie has no need to refresh (and read the newly sent variable) ...*Unfortunately the catagory buttons MUST be outside the movie on the page...
I am using CS4 with AS 3.0... I want to implement both a freeware photo flash gallery and mp3 audio player that I found into my all-Flash website. Both of these require reading from an xml file to get their content. They both come with html embedding instructions, but I don't know about actionscript.

I have an XML photo gallery, that when it starts it has a loader for the photos. It always starts with the XML file determined sequence, which is fine, but what happens is that the tabs on the right hand side of the photo loader go astray while it is loading the first photo. If the first photo was loaded instantly this wouldnt be an issue.Is there a way that I can preload that first photo, so that it is in memory when the swf file reads the XML file, allowing the first photo to be instantly loaded ?Amongst other things, I tried embedding the photo in the swf file, but it didnt work...obviously I have no idea what to script...I also created another scene, prior to the main scene, to preload the photo.. but it didnt work either, again probably used useless script...Going further in detail, this is the main script:
Code:
import com.mosesSupposes.fuse.*;

I have been searching for a particular photo gallery, and haven't got far. Here is an example of what I am looking for. With the example I wanting the user to be able to click on a photo for it to appear in the box above. I am looking for a tutorial, so I can customise to fit in my client's flash website.
View 2 RepliesWhat I want to do is to make a gallery based on the tutorial gallery here (thumbs), but I want the user to be able to choose different galleries from within the movie. I figured that I could make a loop to cycle through the galleries, then nest another loop inside it to cycle through the pics, captions and thumbs. While I wrote, I constantly tested the output with trace commands, but when I tried nesting the loop I lost all output.. I'm pretty new to both Flash and Actionscript, so if theres an obvious solution I havent been able to see it.. This is my temp XML file:

i am trying to add extra images to the photo gallery attached. I would have thought it is easy and it seems so. I add an extra image to the gallery. I publish it. The html file shows the extra image in the gallery but the swf doesnt. driving me crazy, cant work it out?
View 14 RepliesI have a flash site that I'm working with that has an xml photo gallery as one of it's menu items. the photo gallery has three pages, all three containing thumbnail images that once clicked, load the larger image. The larger image dissolves in covering the page with the image. Once you click the larger image it dissolves out returning you to the gallery.
What I want to to do is to change the first page of this gallery to a video gallery, or player, leaving the other two galleries as image galleries. I tried simply replacing the images listed in the xml document to flv files and the flv file does not load. I simply want to know what it is I need to do in order to change this one page so that I can embed videos on it.
I've attached the Action script that loads the xml gallery in .txt format
i am trying to put some things together following the tutorials on this site. I did the tutorial 'Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash'and I followed it step by step and uploaded it with all the necessary files onto my remote server (xml file, Gallery folder, fla, swf, and html) - however, when I test the movie with flash, it seems to work fine (except the description test, my question to that later), but when I test it online it shows only the first image (but displays the correct number of images in the gallery); even when clicking the next button, it keeps loading the first image the first image. In other galleries (I use the structure for multiple galleries for my portfolio) the first image never loads at all.
Also, about the description text, in between the <caption> and </caption>, can I use <strong> and <em> and <br /> to change the appearance of my text? All it says is 'null'.If you want to look at what I mean check out my portfolio in the making. The problem with the first image displaying only is under 'paintings' and both the projects in 'design - packaging'. The second problem (no picture loading at all) is on some of the buttons in 'design - identity' (where I have not changed the description text of the tutorial yet).
Again,
I can't seem to get the XML photo gallery to work in any mac browsers.
is there a fix for this?

I am using Flash Professional 8. I made a Flash photo gallery driven by XML using the tutorial ash_photogallery.htm". When I publish it by pressing ctrl+enter or publish on web by pressing F12, everything is fine. I can see photographs, descriptions, and fully working buttons. But when I put my .swf clip to the website I am developing, nothing comes on it.I am still testing these on my PC and yet to upload them on web.
