I need to know how I can access the images in this XML code (per image):
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<component name='XMLSlideShowV3'>[code].....
I just don't know how to access this type of xml code.And I can't change it to something else because I have a component that reads only this type of code.
As stupid as my question might sound, i have spent the last 2 weeks reading oop books; but could use some guidance. I have a flash project that is basically a supped up slide show. On the stage i have the following: main_mc (instance name = images_mc) = movieclip which holds "pictures" ui1 (instance name = ui1_mc) = user interface that allows user to draw on picture (when drawing is enabled) ui2 (instance name = ui2_mc) = activates invisible hit areas (buttons) on select pics, when hit area is clicked, we jump to another pic in the main_mc.
I accomplished all of this on the timeline, but am updating the code to OOP. I am having A HELL OF A TIME trying to figure out how to store references to the instances (images_mc etc..), so i can control them from varying class files. I have found it is easy to control the instances from the documentclass, but not from unrelated class files. Example: images_mc.stop(); works in document class; but ovieclip(Parent).images_mc.stop() doesn't seem to work from any class file.(ui2 class file for example);

View 1 RepliesI already made some buttons that I was planning on using as a menu for difficulty, easy,medium, hard. The buttons are already made with all the states and graphics, so I wanted to add an event listener so that when you click a button for example easy, if the medium button was at its hit state I would revert it back to up, eg:easyButton.addEventListenere(MouseEvent.CLICK, function(e:event) { mediumButton.gotoAndStop("up") or mediumButton.up
but then I realized there is no propertie or function in the simpleButton class to change the state of the button, I know I can make a movieclip, and do gotoAndStop at the up frame, but is there a way to make it work as a button???

I can see that when I set htmlText in a textarea control, the text property contains the html free version of the text. So there is a parser somewhere that is ripping of html from the content, which would be very usefull for my purposes.
However, based on the flex source code, the setting of html is done in UITextField.as, which is the type of the textfield member of TextArea. The line that does the work is:
super.htmlText = value;
in function override public function set htmlText(value:String):void Trying to follow the class hieararchy, I end up in FlexTextField class, which extends flash player's textfield class. It appears the functionality I am after is in flash player. So is there any way of accessing this html cleaning function?

I'm working in flash Cs4 and I just learned cash and I'm wondering if there's a way to use the Uiloader to load multiple images and have them change every couple of secondes like msn or actionvillage. This is my code so far:
next_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, nextImage);
var imageNumber:Number = 1
function checkNumber():void
[code]....
I have buttons below my uiloader that changes the images when you click on the manually but when you don't click on the arrows I would like the images to change automatically.
I have images in my library I want to reference in code, because I want those images to be displayed dynamically.

View 5 RepliesI've got a job for a client that includes creating a flash movie that will contain a number of thumbnails that represents links to avi movies, powerpoint presentation etc. The thumbnails need to be updated and added to on a regular basis. Is it best to call the thumbnails from an xml doc so the client can update easily?In the flash movie the thumbnails will be presented as a horizontal slideshow that needs to scroll horizintally on
mouseover, and the thumbnails will also display a caption on mouseover. Is this all possible if the images are coming from an external source such as an XML doc.

I've been trying for hours to make sense of this problem. When I run my code through the Flash IDE, everthing is fine. However, when I run it through the command line compiler or Flex itself t doesn't work. This is after setting up all the required Flex bits to create a Flash stage and display content. it keeps giving me an "Access of undefined property" error though I've clearly defined those properties in question a line or two before.

What the heck is going on?? I'm stumped. Embed seems to work fine, but I'd prefer to change it this way. I think there's something about XML dynamism if you use embed instead.
I have a very specific problem. I need to load certain images that my php script creates, and acts as proxy to some apis, into a Flash client (application) however I cannot use direct calls to HTTP server because I'm not allowed to use allowscriptaccess=true. So I've been using FMS for some aspects of my application such as live video and audio and SharedObjects.
I know I can write scripts to load and parse XML files on the server side so that shouldn't be a problem to get, however I'm stuck on loading in images going through FMIS.
When I test my video recording and chatting application using SharedObjects, everything works fine even if allowscriptaccess=false, but none of my images will load (naturally since the script access is limited). I know that some sites disallow scriptaccess parameter in Flash embed code so I would want everything to go through FMIS.
I have read some suggestions that I could try to load files directly from server-side on FMIS as binary and try to pass that to the client and let Flash generate the image with ByteArray but I wouldn't try to lose time if it's not possible or will stumble upon problems.
Does anyone have any ideas whether or not FMIS can serve images direclty through RTMP (which would save me some headache) beacuse I could load XML info from server-side and when I get the link to image use RTMP to load the image, but I'm unsure if this is possible at all.
