Flash CS4 Loader Class: Image Loads Initially But Error Returned When Loading New Image
Mar 22, 2011
[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'm trying to load images using the loader class but it doesn't seem to ever trigger the complete event (in this case anyway). The images are only 16x16px images from the local machine, so it should take no time at all to load. I use the totalImages variable as a counter; as an image is loaded, it subtracts 1 from it. Once it is 0, all images are loaded. I can create an instance and it goes as far as tracing "Begin loading images", but that's it. No errors in the console either.
PHP Code:
package lib{
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.geom.Rectangle;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.events.Event;
public class Frame extends Bitmap{

I'm trying to create a class that loads images dynamically with their corresponding thumbnails using an external XML file. It works fine in a lone fla file but when I try to make it into a class so I can reference multiple XML files, I get "A term is undefined and has no properties". Now, the class seems to work OK: I get a thumbnail displayed and when I click on it, it shows the picture but not the text and I get errors for both the xmlLoaded and showPicture functions as below. (I didn't paste the constructor function but it's there.)
It seems only one line is causing trouble in the xmlLoaded function (see asterisks) while multiple lines in showPicture are problematic. I know how to use the debugger to find the line of code but how do I wade through all the parameters to figure out what the problem is?
Code:
private var _imgText:TextField = new TextField();
private var _imgLoader:Loader = new Loader();
private var _containIt:Sprite = new Sprite();

I developing a site where on the homepage, there are about 6 images that rotate, but if you click on a sub link, a different image loads. But the problem is that, the first image has to cycle through before the second image loads. I want the second image to load immediately.

I need to create a gallery to load images and display them. This part is fine:
/**
* @variable image_name to store the name of the selected item
*/
private function showimage(evt:Event):void
[Code].....
where imgMain is the id the image component.
But, I need a small twist. A transition image i.e. loading image should be displayed while the the image is being loaded.

Is it possible to get a loader to load and display a random image?My background images are quite large so I would prefer to use a loader to keep the file size down but I'm struggling to work out how to randomise the images.

i just setup this loader i found on the net:
Code:
var l:Loader = new Loader();
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, loop);
l.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, done);[code]....
what i dont understand is that everytime i click the refresh page the loader shows up again(this time loading the image faster) but if the image is already in cache the loader should not show at all (?),i would like to achieve a loader that loads the image and after dont come up again everytime.

I have my swf (embedded in a JSP page) deployed in Sun Application Server. My swf contains a Loader component which loads image through accessing the url of my servlet. This servlet of mine returns an image. Now, when i try it inside our network, it works both for IE and FireFox. But when i try it on an external network, the Loader loads the image for IE but it doesn't for FireFox. I'm doubting it is an acess problem since it works in IE.

I am developing a Image uploader using Flash 10. I am using Filereference object to browse images and Loader to show the image:
Sample code:
var tempFileRef:FileReference = FileReference(ev.target);
var oLoader:Loader = new Loader();
oLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onImageLoad);
oLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError);
oLoader.loadBytes(tempFileRef.data);
It works fine with .jpg and .gif files but when I browse .bmp or .tiff file, I am getting the error:
Error #2124: Loaded file is an unknown type.
Is there a way to load and display browsed .bmp images from desktop?

i'm trying to make a class that loads an image easily for me, and runs a callback function when its loaded.
I'm not sure if it would make sense to use a static function for this or create an instance of the class, I did it both ways. I'm wondering what ways better or if theres an even better way to do it.
LoaderPro:
Code:
package com.farzher {
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.events.Event;
[Code].....
They both work but i'm not sure if LoaderPro could get garbage collected before it loads the image, doing something like this without referencing it in a variable.
Code:
new LoaderPro(xml.image[0].src, sup);

I am a php programmer who has no experience whatsoever with flash. I've got a swf on my website that calls an image. The images it calls can take a few seconds to load and I would like to display something in the meantime to let the visitor know that the site is working.[code]I've done some Googling and I think it is something to do with LoadListener. Am I right in thinking that this "self monitors" the process and that you can use this to display something in lieu of the actual swf loading??

I've tried adding this loader as a child of several different sprites but it only ends up in one of the sprites (must be removing from the other sprites display list automatically).How can I duplicate that image in the loader into multiple sprites?e.g. (note don't worry about making sure the icon is loaded, pretend I wanted to Event.COMPLETE before adding to
var icon:Loader = new Loader();
icon.load(new URLRequest('image.png'));
var iconA:Sprite = new Sprite();

I am getting a mysterious result when trying to load profile images from a logged in Facebook user's friends list into an as3 canvas app. In pretty much every (non-facebook) application I've made where loading an image is required I use the following:
private function loadPic():void
{
var url:String = Facebook.getImageUrl(_friendslistObjectArray[_loadCount].id);
_picLoader = new Loader();[code]............
I can't retrieve the image from the event object,and I am given no error at all.It all just fails silently.If I remove the line var image = evt.target.content, the process runs through the whole array.I can't think of any reason this would occur. Furthermore, if I look in firebug's net activity, I see I see the images get loaded as long as I do not have the line I just mentioned included. I just can't seem to get the image data from the event object to add it to stage or a container movieclip.

I have a script that loads an external image into the stage(I have the addChild() script somewhere else) but I keep getting an error that says:
TypeError: Error #1034: Type Coercion failed: cannot convert flash.display::Loader@b1b7101 to flash.display.MovieClip.
at project1_fla::MainTimeline/drag()
[Code]....
What I do to make the image draggable? *(The image is loaded when the swf starts but the image won't because I put the addChild() in a if() statement. Could it be that since the image isn't loaded, it can't be a movieclip?)

Using ActionScript can I do with my game, which is running in a browser, verify that the user already has the files needed to run the game installed on your computer? If he had these files do not need anything else that was born and can play the game immediately. If he did not have the files, they would be loaded so that the browser does not erase these files. So when he returned to play the same game day after,as the files already on your computer, nothing need be loaded.How do I remove one of the main memory image that was loaded using the Loader class? I tried using the unload () method but nothing happened.

I'm building an Adobe Air app that needs to load external images from different webservers. I have my basic loader function set up, but I encountered one server that wouldn't let me load it's images. it gave me the following error[url]...
After that I got in contact with the server's manager and he told me he had been working on some basisc hotlink protection for his images. He also told me that I could subvert this by supplying[url]... as the referrer when building the request headers.
First of all I found no trace of hotlink protection with online testapplications for hotlink protection. Secondly I have no idea how to set up what he told me with a simple Loader class function.[code]...

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.
