Data Integration :: Create A Slideshow That Pulls Information From A Database?

Apr 22, 2011

I want to create a slideshow banner that will showcase our products. The slideshow will contain the image of the product, the name, the price, the item code and the link when someone clicks on it. Each week we update the best sellers and it can be from 5 to 15 different products. Similar to what we have now in our website www.deiequipment.com which now is static, we want to animate it and rotate the products like a slideshow.The problem we are encountering is that we have to manually update the slideshow content.
 
We would like to know if there is a way through scripting or catalyst to connect to a database and simply update all these fields automatically. So for example if the database has 5 items, automatically will pre-fill each field listed above and the slideshow will have 5 products.
 
If we update the database now with 10 products, to update automatically. That way we can create 1 slide show, the time it takes to rotate to the next product, and add simple button controls to the slide show for next and back that will simply go through the loaded items.I tried to do a research on how to do it online but some takes me to scripting, others to catalyst dabases, but none are specific to what I need.As a note, the image will just be an image holder that will be updated with the image field in the database that points to the URL location of the image.

ActionScript 3.0 :: Loader Class Pulls In External Information?

Apr 30, 2010

I have a question about the loader class.I was reading some of the documentation on the follow web page:http:[url]....And I didn't get very far before I had my first question about how the loader class pulls in external information:

Quote:The loaded display object is added as a child of the Loader object.

Question one: By "display object" they are referring to your external content (.swf / .jpg / .mp3) correct?

Question two: "is added as a child of the Loader object" Dose this mean that you could define one instance of the loader class, and then have several URLRequests that plug into that one loader class.So in other words can you have multiple forms of content from different directory's being loaded through ONE loader class instance?I'm a visual person so I mapped my current understanding of this process in the follow Img.

Data Integration :: Embed A Database Within A SWF?

Sep 7, 2007

I'm wondering if the following can be done with Flash -

- can a swf contain it's own database that the user can add, delete, read?

- while the view is online, entering and interacting with the data- is it being sent back and forth to the server?

- can this database be protected with some sort of encryption that is only unlocked by the user's code?

- and so that if the user emailed the swf or the db file from within the swf, only a person with the key could access the data?

Data Integration :: Display An Images From Database

May 9, 2008

Is there a tutorial somewhere that tells/shows how to display an image from a db. I have my image paths in a mysql db and I am using php to display my other text fields. I just haven't been able to get my images to show. Below is the code that I am using so far. Here is my actual goal, I am trying to have a flash document the has a list in the datagrid that is connected to a mysql db. I have successfully done this. When a user clicks on a product in the datagrid it populates the details below the grid and I have done so successfully. What I now need is to show a picture of the product in the details section. I would also like to see how to show different images for different vendors, each vendor has its own image size, so if I put just one image placeholder then some of the images will be scewed. I need something that shows image in placeholder 1 if company=1, show image in placeholder 2 if company=2, etc.

Data Integration :: Sends Queries To A Database And Receives XML Formatted?

Sep 16, 2008

I have a project that sends queries to a database and receives XML formatted data:

Markets_xml = new XML();
Markets_xml.onLoad = readMarketsXML;
Markets_xml.load("
http://208.62.199.74/ws_ckp_data/Service.asmx/GetMarkets?MarketName=Al l&MarketTypes=Industrial");
Markets_xml.ignoreWhite = true;

This works fine when I test the movie from Flash (on my local machine) and if I type the query string directly into my browser, I get the correctly formatted information. The problem arises when I post the swf to my server and test. From my server, I get nothing The swf files and the data are on different servers. Is this the problem? What is a good quick solution.
