I have subgallery.swf file that loads jpeg images. And I have gallery.swf file that loads subgallery.swf.The jpeg images and both swf files are in the same folder.When I test gallery.swf it loads subgallery.swf but subgallery.swf doesn't load images. When testing subgallery.swf alone, it loads jpeg files.Is there any security limitation or setting preventing external swfs loading other content?

View 2 RepliesI spent almost a week trying to figure out how to unload a currently loaded swf using its button and loading a new swf... I have three files, a main.fla, file1.fla and file2.fla. In my main.fla, I have a code which loads the other two files. If i will click the "unload" button in the file1.swf, I would like the main.fla to unload the file1.swf and load the other file, file2.swf. Here is the code to load the file1.swf:

i am using this preloader to load load external swf files in my main.swf. it works great but it has a small issue regarding loading timing. when it gets to 100% and loads the external swf file the swf file as i suspect is loaded a little bit earlier than the % and when it shows up its already playing the 10th frame instead of the first frame. the code is below....
MovieClip.prototype.fadeIn = function() {
this.onEnterFrame = function() {

I'm having trouble importing an external .swf into my .fla. file. The only AS that is working gor me is-
loadMovie("panoSceneNoMarkers.swf", _root);
However, once the swf shows, it replaces the background interface. I assume I have to add a _level into the code but how?

I've been making a game using Adobe Flash CS3 and actionscript 2.0 on my desktop and it was working fine. I tried to transfer the folder containing the flash file and all of the .as files to my laptop via a jump drive and now, when I run the the swf, it doesn't appear to be loading any of my .as files. All of the files are still located in the same folder as my flash files and it still compiles and runs fine on my desktop.

My ProblemI have a large (30mb) swf file created in InDesign. It's an interactive PDF. Now rather then allowing people to view it straight away and having to wait elements to load we'd like to pre-load it somehow.
I was wondering how I might go about building a preloader for this SWF file. I have limited knowledge of action script, and most of that was as2 rather then 3.
When I click on a button eg news, I use the loadmovie function to load news.swf. In news.swf, I have the following command (from Kirupa scrolling dynamically loaded text tut) to load a text file in:
stop();
loadText = new loadVars();
loadText.load("news.txt");

I can't seem to figure out how to load an external .txt file into my movie. I can get it to work onPress, but not for a frame script. got a quick script to display an external .txt in a dynamic text box in flash?
View 1 Repliesi know how to load in external .as files so I can update easily. but why do you still have to re-publish the swf in order for the new .as file 2 take effect.is there any way that you can make a .as file be read in & so that it updates the .swf file, much like the way loading an xml or .txt file does?
View 6 RepliesI'm making an image catalogue for a client, and for reasons unknown to me my client insisted that the images be stored as binary data in a database. ( i know, i know....but they wouldnt' listen) Anywho, the format of these images is windows bitmap (.BMP). I've just found out that they want to be able to manipulate these images in flash. So i need to have actionscrip open these images.Since the images are stored in the db they have to be accessed via a php file like this: get_image.php?id=imageid.
This works fine for displaying the images in a browser as i just put the string inside an img tag so: <img src="get_image.php?id=someid"/>The thing is, I can't seem to get flash 8 to load these images via loadmovie. I've been able to load jpeg and gif files no problem, but can't seem to get these bmps to work. Adding to misery is that because there are going to be in the neighbourhood of 40,000 images, i dont' want to actually have the images saved locally.this is what i have, it works fine for jpegs and gifs:this.createEmptyMovieClip("pic", 1);pic.loadMovie("image1.gif");
I'm trying to import some external files to my main flash file with buttons. I click button 1 and content 1 is loaded, click button 2 and content 2 is loaded, and so on.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to load an external SWF into my project, I am pretty sure that my code is fine but when I try to display the SWF all I get is an instance of my StartPage movie clip. The code for the loader does not mention or even any relation to this movieclip! I have the loader in a class file for a separate movieclip, but no matter where I put the code I get the same result. I cannot understand why this is happening!I tried loading the same external SWF into a different project, and it worked fine.Is this a common problem? I haven't managed to find anyone online with the same problem.

View 4 Replieson Flash MX 2004 having problems with loading external jpegs and stuff. I got a tutorial from here and loading from a web address on it is okay, but I can't get my one to load from my hard drive because there is always an error with the path. Each of my buttons has this assigned
button6.onPress = function() {
my_mc.loadClip("file:///c:/flash pictures/picture6.jpg", "container");
};
and results in this error
Error opening URL "file:///c:/flash pictures/picture6.jpg"
What's the correct format for putting in a file path? This may be an immensely stupid question, but I'm new to this and totally confounded.
