IDE :: Know Of An Existing XML Product Catalog Tool?
May 27, 2009
I need to create a web product catalog for about 200 items. I am doing this as part of subsite for a large company and long-story short, I need to make this site self contained, without relying on any assistance from their IT department (so no MYSQL, etc.).They already have a catalog of thousands of products, but the purpose of this subsite is to highlight products to a particular market.The catalog would need to have the ability to create a hierarchy, and basic product information (name, description, image, sku number) and an interface for easy updates. No ordering.

I am trying to develop a simple product catalog using flash and xml. The xml file only has a list of catagories and under each a few products. I have a combobox wich list the catagories and another which
list the products in that catagory. Each works fine but the products don't change according to the catagory that is selected in the catagory combobox. How do I change this. I use xmlConnector to bind the data to both.
2. When I browse through the products using a loader component sometimes there is flicker and you can see the image before it is resized. This is realy annoying. Should I use a movieclip loader? The images are not all the same size.

I have extensive experience with MS Visio Solution development, and have a need to provide similar functionality in a web interface in the context of a heavily visual product-builder or "configurator". Visio functionality that I hope to reproduce:Visual shapes stored in a sidebar, from which the user drags and drops onto a drawing area Shape creation on the user's end is probably not necessary... just arrangement, sizing, changing parameters etc.A back-end for extracting the parts the user has dropped onto the drawing area, including the parameters they've changed, dimensions, relations between components etc.In the most general sense, I just need an interactive interface.Given the above parameters, is Flash a good option? Is there a development environment that might be better?

I wonder if there is a possibility to load external files to flash, when I know only their source catalog.Normally I'd use xml file with names or write some php script, but is there some way to load those files only with actionscript?

I apologize in advance -- I am new to Flash. I am triyng to build a Flash object to display images from a catalog. I would like to build something like this. I really just need some advice/direction to get started.Once I know the basics/techniques to be used, I can go from there. Is this some thing that can be done solely in Flash or will I need to use some combination of Flash & Javascript. Right now, I am thinking I can use the loader class to achieve something like this.

I found that .fla files do not save in Flash CS4 when the Deco tool or Spray Brush tool is selected. Is this a bug? Or is there a workaround to this issue.

I have a client that wants a product to rotate around its axis for a full 360 degree view of the product. The final view needs to be draggable - so a user can use their mouse to turn it left or right. I took photos of the product in 10 degree increments and created a movie clip - but I can't figure out how to get it so a user can control the view: turning the product left or right.

I'm having a hard time wading through all the different types of flash and actonscript that is posted here. I've seen some of the senior members spend extra time trying to determine which Flash product was being used and which action script. Some of us are limited to F7, F8 etc. It would be nice to be able to search for entries that apply to what we're looking for. I see two possible solutions, maybe you have others.
1. Create a new entry item for the new forum that includes Flash type and Actionscript being used. 2. Each of us can identify what products and actionscript we are using or asking about in the Topic Summary.
Question: Would it be beneficial for seperate input fields to be added to the new forum site to include Product version and the actonscript being used?I know all you rich folks use the CS products and that's all
as3. What happens when as4 shows up?

on my stage are 5 buttons, each with the name of a product. i want to be able to hover over each product and see a Description of the product with a "learn more" link at the bottom of the description. the problem is that i want the Descriptions for each product to appear in the exact same place.
if the hit area of each button covers only the button itself, you can't click the "learn more" link because it disappears when you move off the buttonif the hit area of each button covers the Description area, the hit areas overlap each other. this causes the Description to always show the same thing (i think it is the Description of the last button i added) if you are hovering over anything besides an actual button.

I'm trying to put together a Product Features Application, which allows visitors to our Website to view what their product will look like with add-on products via a simple checklist, and image layering platform. So essentially:
- Visitor see's the main Product (Fireplace) on Website Page- Visitor sees three Lists containing Checkboxes below the main image- Visitor clicks one checkbox from each list, and sees that ADD-ON product added to the main image above (so that they can view what the product will look like). I'm using CS4, and I'm slightly new to Flash.

I made a sequence of images and make the code the rotate around it but I have a little problem with the loop ( from frame 100 to 1 || 1 to 100 ).How can I avoid the little stick problem. I know what's the problem but I dont know how to solve it. It's with the frame tweening. Anyway, here's the code :
import flash.events.Event;

Some of the "skins" for the FLVPlayback component cannot be used as delivered in the Flash Professional CS5 package.
For instance, if you try simply to run the .swf file: MinimaSilverPlayBackSeekCounterVolMuteFull.swf in Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Flash CS5/Common/Configuration/FLVPlayback skins/ActionScript 3.0, you get the following error message:
VerifyError: Error #1014: Class fl.video::UIManager could not be found.
Such a skin cannot be used in a published application (though it will work within the Flash IDE in Test mode).
Not all the skins have this problem. However, at least all of the Minima prefixed ones do. Of course the one I wish to use is broken. Is there a way I can fix this? If I try to publish the corresponding .fla (in FLVPlayback skins/FLA/Action Script 3.0 I get "Warning: unable to load SWC FLVPlaybackAS2.swc".

So I have spent XX hours trying to get an External Preloader to work. So I am attaching the closest thing to a finished product which is an Internal Preloader.
Can Someone please help me make it into an external one? I have tons of versions of it but I don't want to send that since they obviously don't work.
I can't seem to attach the file since it too big. You can download it here:

I am currently working my way through a book on Game Programming in Actionscript 3, and have gotten to a formula required for collision detection on finding the intersection point of two vectors. Im not sure if the author uses vectors in the strictest definition, but the convention he uses is e.g for a vector V1 :
V1.a is the start point of the vector V1.b is the end point of the vector V1.ln is the vector perpendicular to V1 (its 'left normal') V1.vx is the difference between the x coordinate of V1.b and V1.a V1.vy similar to vx V1.dx is the same as vx , but for V1 scaled down to a unit vector (the direction vector) Now,in the example we have V1 which is the motion vector of the ship, and V2, which is the target vector (i.e the line the ship is going to collide with at some point)
In order to calculate at what point on V2 the ship will collide travelling along motion vector V1, the book gives the following code using the "perpendicular dot product" (Which i have not come across before) and creating a third vector V3 between the start point of V1 and the start point of V2 (V1.a and V2.a):

I'm working on a product display for a lure maker that I'm hoping to get working something similar to some of the Scene 7 works. I'm using BassProShops as an example. Basically it's a small image gallery that would have 1 to 4 thumbnails, displaying the image in an image area. Then having the ability to zoom in on the product image for some sharp detail. What I'm building so far loads external images that are 1400x1400 and resizing to 350x350. I'll use a mask or something to create the magnifying effect. Where I'm at now is that I feel like I might be going about it in a bulky manner with the way I'm loading the images and my ProgressEvent only works on the initial image load. I'm looking for some input from more experienced coders before I paint myself into a corner Here's the code I have so far... Thoughts?
