I am new to AS3 but very comfortable with AS2. I am trying to build a page with multiple image galleries pulling images from a few xml documents and I'm running into a snag. I am using a custom scrollbar based on the gotoAndLearn tutorila and loading the full size images into a movie clip on the stage. Everything is perfect until I move to the second frame and attempt to load the next xml and new set of images.[url]...

I'm trying to make a photo gallery with thumbnails to select the image. The thumbnails load up fine from the XML file but the other images give the error
'Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found'
I have checked and re-checked the URL's in the XML file and they seem fine to me.[code]...
I have a page containing multiple image galleries and thumbnail scrollers pulling in from external XMLs. The first scene containing gallery 1 loads the thumb and full size image perfectly.We I navigate to the second scene containing a new instance of my scrollpanel and container movie clip for my full size image I this error: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.at index_fla::MainTimeline/index_fla::frame6()I am wondering if I have to remove an event listener from the previous frame. Everything on the stage has an instance name and I am calling all new variable son the second frame.

View 1 Repliesi 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'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.
Just trying to make a flash photo gallery that displays all the image files in a certain directory with the usual photo gallery functionality.
View 1 RepliesI have a gallery where passing over the image a rectangle drops down showing the caption for the image. The informations are read from an XML file and some of my images don't have a caption, for those emails I want to avoid the tween.

I'm trying to find out how to make a simple image gallery which changes image upon a mouse click on a button, when a button is pressed I want the image to slide in from the left into the viewable area and then when another image is selected I want the previous image that was viewed to remain in the screen and then the new image slide across over the top to replace the image.
I can get the images to slide across from the left upon a mouse click however I can't change the layer order so if image 6 is viewed and then I click to see image 1, the image will slide into place however it will be below image 6 so therefore not viewable.
I don't have an example of what I'm after but I hope my explanation was good enough, I've seen this been done in javascript but I have to use flash and am unable to replicate the effect I'm after
I have this piece of code to change images. I was trying to figure out how you could put a timer on the code, so if the image has been displayed for say 5 seconds it diverts to the next image automatically? Also if it's not to hard, when it has played to the end to divert to the 1st image.

Just wondering if anyone knows about the project I am trying to start, uploading images from flash using php is fine but wondering if anyone knows how to create dynamic xml from php and it takes all the image names from the same folder where those images have been uploaded. So we can load all the images in image gallery through xml into flash.
View 5 RepliesI have found an excellent tutorial and source file for a 3D image gallery. However I would like to make the thumbnail click thorugh to a url link when pressed rather than loading the image into the gallery.
Currently the images load in through actionscript. Is there a way to amend this script so you can specify that a thumbnail clicked links through to a url, like you would with a normal button instance rather than loading the image. Here is a link to the file and tutorial. The actionscript is on the top layer within the file.[URL]...

View 9 RepliesI am am not a developer but have bought a template which I am modifying to suit my needs. I have made most of the modifications but and stuck on how to change the animation for the image gallery. When I move from one picture to the next the animation effect is something like a bubble burst. This is too flamboyant for me. I would like to change it to something more sleek but have no clue where to start.

I have an image gallery but I can't seem to get the previous image removed. I have two functions:
ActionScript Code:
function clearLoader():void {
try {
var li:LoaderInfo = slideLoader.contentLoaderInfo;
[Code]....
But in some way not the previous image is removed, but the one before that. Annoying, because if image 1 is larger than image 2, image 1 stays on the background. It is only when loading image 3 the first image is removed from the stage.
So I'm having some trouble modifying this script. I have a text box so a user can go to a certain image (In my case page). So if the user type 5 it should go to image 5I've tried numerous methods, none of which are working (they work but then my next and previous buttons aren't working properly). I know I need to just get go to the number image in the array but the way the script is set up it seems I would have to change the current position value but that doesn't seem to be the case.Am I over complicating this?
ActionScript Code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
f (loaded) {

I would like to be able to add the functionality of being able to load different galleries from a menu without loading a new mc with gallery inside it. I managed to botch the file up pretty good on my own, and was wondering if there is a ready answer nearby.So I'm thinking have but1, but2 and but3, with a seperate xml file for each. What would you recommend for a smooth way to swap the the xml files to the gallery, and load the first image of the new xml file? Also, can it be done with one big ol' xml file while keeping the galleries seperate? It's not necessary, but could be handy, and save some loading.It would also be interesting to apply the same principle to the resizing script that Scotty has in that big Resizing thread, just a thought.

[code]This script is for a loader image gallery in flash, as part of a class assignment. What happens is that in flash, when I open the swf file, the initial image (images/nair_evanescentautumn.png) will load fine. However, clicking on any thumbnail image (including the exact same images/nair_evanescentautumn.png), will result in an error saying the file cannot be found.I cannot figure out why it is doing this... I've tested it over. Clicking each thumbnail does go to the correct position in the two separate functions. All said full-size image links are in the folder images/, and replacing the initial loader image will load the other images in place of the default one. However, clicking on any thumbnail still results in URL not found, even though everything works correctly.[code]Before anyone asks why I'm putting this kind of content into a flash site, I'm not--this is only for a class assignment. I'm just trying to figure out why my images aren't loading right when I'm only doing the exact same thing in the functions as I am on the other pages.Of note, commissions.swf has the exact same feature, just with swf files loaded instead, and it works perfectly fine. home, traditional, digital, and photography all have the image gallery, and all have the same issue (I only referenced one page because if I can fix one page I should be able to fix all of them).As for the artworks, they are all my fiance's. The website design was built for her, and I used the website design for this project because I didn't want to have to build an entirely new interface design. Since the project also required a gallery, I felt that this interface would work just fine.

i am trying to get the photo gallery made by flashmo available here: [URL]to display .swf instead of external .jpg files as it was originally intended for. This system is .xml based where it obtains details of the images to display from the external .xml file.
I have the system working for the photo gallery but i need a page where a show animations that are already compiled into self contained .swf files. The site I am building if purely flash and consists of just one main.swf file.
To get the system to work I simply changed the filename in the .xml file to direct the system to a .swf animation file as oppose to a .jpg file and the system worked perfectly. oh so i thought...........
Testing the site within flash under the "test movie" (ctrl + enter) option proved the system to be fully functional with no issues at all. However when exported as a flash .swf movie file as a standalone file when ran locally through directly clicking on the .swf the animations page would simply display "NaN%" where the percentage loaded should be displayed and clicking on the thumbnails to load different .swf movie files didn't do anything, the .swf animation files will never load, nothing is ever shown apart from the empty loading bar and "NaN%". Loading the .swf locally through the browser by means of a simple html page doesn't make a difference either.
To make it a little more strange, when the site was uploaded to an online server and visited remotely through the browser it would do the same but clicking on the thumbnails loaded the corresponding .swf animation file fine and the "NaN%" error after the initial display is never seen again until the browser is closed and re-opened to visit the site again. The system is set to initially load the first .swf animation clip.
The code for the loading is:
pic._alpha = 0;
pic.loadMovie(filepath + photo_filename[p]);
pic_desc.txt = photo_description[p];
[code]....
Only minor changes to the code have been made by me and I am no expert at this at all so it could be something really simple. I feel the fact that it works under testing, partially when online and not at all when run directly and indirectly (browser) locally is strange and there must be an explanation for this that one of you experts must know.
I am trying to place a button on the screen and make it spin when mouse_over (which will be one of mutiple buttons with different instance names. ) The code I wrote is putting 2 colorwheels on the screen, one on top of the other, I can see the bottom one is spinning but I can't seem to figure out why the top one is there. But then, I get a error code message 1056 with no compile errors when I mouse over the dial:ReferenceError: Error #1056: Cannot create property rotation on builtin.as$0.MethodClosure.

I've been creating an XML photo gallery with Flash CS4 and AS 3.0 following a tutorial. I followed the instructions step-by-step but at the end I got the following error message instead:
Error #2044: Unhandled IOErrorEvent:. text=Error #2035: URL Not Found. Could anyone in the community assist me as to how to solve the problem? The script has no errors and last time I checked all the applicable files (the .xml file, the .jpg files, the .swf and the .fla file) are in my Documents folder on the Mac.
I'm building a dynamic XML photo gallery/case study application that allows users to filter relevant results and then view the corresponding text/photos. So far i've used list components to scan my XML document and return the results for the filters, and then add thumbnails to a panel. When you click on the thumbnail, it brings up the first of a series of images, which i load into a Loader instance and add it to the stage using addChild();
The image sequence is then controlled by a series of navigational buttons, of which currently i only have "Next" and "Previous". The buttons work by incrementing/deincrementing a variable that is the index of the image currently being displayed, so when you hit next, it adds/subtracts 1 from that variable, and then uses that number for the index of my <image> tag in the XML doc. All works fine until you reach the end of the images. I have a conditional that tests if the currentImg variable is equal to the length(); property of the XML tag, and if it is, it resets the currentImg value to 0. And vice versa for the previous button. But when the file is published, and i reach the last image and hit the next button, i get this error:TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties. at MethodInfo-346()
The strange thing is, that if i hit next again, it does what it is supposed to do by going to the first image. Then if i cycle through the images once again the same thing happens. And the same scenario and error occurs when i hit the previous button on the first image. if i need to somehow remove the images from memory, or if they are still in memory and i need to access them a different way the second time around? this is very frustrating.
