IDE :: Load Images That Are Defined From Either A Xml Or Database?
Jul 11, 2010
Adobe Flash CS3 I need to create a Flash project that will load images that are defined from either a xml or database (If database, then it will be SQL Server (or) Access using ASP Classic).
I need to make an image wall that looks like the below. Now, the the total images will be: 10x10 = 100 So that is 10 columns, 10 rows = 100 images.At times, it will not have all the images (Image #1)And the rest of the time it will have them all (Image #2)
The important part is this:The Flash movie will not have nothing special as in.It will just be showing the images, and the images will need to be Clickable, NOT to show a larger image within the program BUT Launch a website that is specified in the xml file for the paticilar image.
I am trying to load some images from a database.I can pass a variable from flash to php, from php to db and back again.this is no problem with dynamic text but I am not familiar with how images can be retrieved.another fact is that the images are removed and re-entered every 24 hrs. and their instance names also change.Is it posible to adapt flash in this way or would It be better try another form of coding for the job?
I have never used flashVars, even in AS2, but the project I'm working on requires that I use since my client is going to use dynamic urls defined as expressions and he wants to have control without having to edit a fla file. I have read a lot of tutorials and can't seem to come up with a solution. Basically what I want is to load my Flashvars defined in swfObject, each one holding an expression, for example:
[Code]...
How will I accomplish the same thing in as3? I know you have to get flashVars using .loaderInfo but that as far as i got.
I am using flex builder 3.2, Action Script 3 and develop for Flash Player 10 and am quite new to it. when I call a method of a self defined class, I get the 1061 error (not defined). But the class and the method exist and are public, so what the hell am I doing wrong? Flash Builder is even offering me this method in the auto-completion, so at least the builder knows it... I have already tried cleaning the project (as this is the common source of strange errors when working with java/eclipse),
edit: solved... The problem was that a package had the same name as the variable I used for the class. Very strange error message, thumbs down for this .
I bought a ready to use mp3 player /shop solution ( Paypal ).Buyer gets the link to the loaded ( player ) mp3 file after successfull payment by email.Need to feed the player with only a part of the mp3 file, but taken from the full length mp3.
I cant simply load a pre-cut mp3 into the player, as the buyer will get the link to the file which loads into the player after buying.how to call just like the desired seconds to play from the track ?
I have a small problem with preloading images from a database.
Basically i have a folder on my server called 'work', i have a database in which when i add a new project a folder is created on the server in the folder 'work' and is labeled whatever the id number was of the project created eg. 1,2,3 etc.
In flash i have no problem loading the images into flash via the actionscript below:
Code: var loader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader(); for (i=0; i<=this["total_items"]; i++) { loadingBar = _root.page_holder.thumbs["loadBar"+i];
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.
i am making one small cms system which is updating flash content , everything is done and working properly but image tag is not getting display in text area ( image is not comming in text area ) following is the coding
for flash ( in first frame ) --------------------- loadVarsText = new LoadVars();
I have a working MVC project.I want to include a page which displays images from database, in FULL SCREEN MODE.How do i go about this? Flash? SilverLight?
I'm a designer working in tandem with a PHP programmer on a project where we will display a random image via flash from a selection of images stored on a database. Accompanying this image is a tagline and a path for a button and these variables are sent via a php script. The actionscript then picks up these vars via loadVars and displays them on screen - well, almost.
The tagline is displaying in the dynamic text box with no problems, but I'm struggling with how to display the image in the empty MC I've created (called 'pic') and also to attach the path to the button I've created (called 'projectURL_btn'). I'm fairly sure it's something fairly simple but I just can't crack it.
Allow this binary data to be extracted via a http request to be dynamically loaded inside of a web page.Now the first part was easy. I have all of my swf's uploaded and stored inside of the database. I have code that can make a request for the binary and write it to the response, so far so good. Now this is where I am stuck.I thought I could dynamically load the swf binary data by creating a very basic swf that simply contains a movie clip holder and for now a simple loadMovie statement. My idea being that I can could provide a url for the loadMovie statement that returns the swf binary data. This is where I have ground to a halt.
I can see the call being made from the swf, I can see the data being returned but I cannot get it to render. I remember seeing an article some time agao where someone stated that they had used this method with success but I cannot find now
where you can load an image from a SQL database ? I would like to show this image in Flash, but i don't know how to load in from a SQL database using ASP.
It will not load the image from the database using ASP. I set Images as a variable from ASP. It was displaying "images/img1.jpg" instead of image visually.
All images loaded are in landscape proportions. I would like to resize the images that are loaded to a set height (the photo might have to be either enlarged or reduced) but maintain the proportions of the picture (i.e the resize the width to keep proportions)
I am trying to load multiple images into a scene and then cycle through the images one at a time.So, here are the essentials what I've put together in AS3:First I set up a counter and a Loader
[code]....
Then, after loading a list of images from an XML file, I call a function that I called "createImages". This function then takes the list of images and creates a bunch of loaders:
[code]....
So far, so good! I now have a bunch of loaders each with a different name "img1","img2","img3" etc.
I am relatively new to flash, xml and php. I am looking to load a video which the url is stored in a mysql database into flash.I have stored the video url into the database.But how do i display it in flash?
I'm making a game and I need to load variables into my flash movie from a database.My problem is that when I try to load the data into flash, it won't let me use the variables. If I put a dynamic textfield on the stage with fname (one of my variables), the text field diplays the correct data, but when I say trace(fname) with having the text field, "undefined" pops up.
I am using actionscript 3. I can load an image in a class but how do Iload a number of images eg 4 images that animate.?These 4 images are a walking sequnce of a character. I am unclear after googling an loading multi images in as3( just love google).
Loading a single image I load this into a loader Once loaded I load the image into a bitmap and add to a sprite I then add the spite to the stage Q)Now for 4 related images I load 4 loader or 4 sprites or 4 bitmaps or do every thing 4 times?I want to do collisions eventually and I need bitmaps but bitmaps seem useless to use other than collisions.Googling for answers isnt helping me clarify this!
I'm working in Flash 5...I've made a random loading database of animations that's the first thing to load in my movie. My problem is that after the random images fade in, display, and then fade out I need the next movie clip to load. Right now I can't figure out how to get the second movie clip to load Following the random loading movie clips...all the other animations want to play at the same time the random movie clip plays.I used a modified version of the Kirupa random loading background...it's on the timeline as "Location" with the action scripting for the random load on that layer. Can anyone tell me how how get the second animation to play After the random loading clips play?[code]
I have a rotaing menu that loads in images from an xml file, I would also like it to load in text info from the same xml file to the left side of the images that load in. In my main .fla have created a movieclip and called it 'textInfo' and inside that I have two dynamic text fields called 'headerText' and 'bodyText' where I want to load the text in. this is what I am using to loading in the text in my actionscript, is this correct?
i want to intertwine php, MySql and flash. so i can make a flash movie display text that is in the sql database and a php script to change the database, php > sql = i can do but sql > flash = i can't do..i want it so the sql data show's in a text box in the flash movie...
I want to create a Flex 3 application running in Adobe Air that accesses an SQLite database and I need to keep this database in sync with an SQL server 2005 database running a website.Is this something that Flex supports or is it going to be a custom script? Also, has anybody done anything like this?
Edit: The synchronisation can be done on a daily basis rather than real time. The data will be read only from a front end perspective with a CMS to do updates on the website.
I have researched this issue all over and most people say use the .refresh() method to update a datagrid after updating or adding a new record. This does not do anything. So, my issue is this. I have a mySQL database hosted I am connecting via PHP, I have 1 mxml file and 2 php files (I know I can use just 1 but I am learning and this was easier for me to use for troubleshooting). The issue is no matter what I change on the datagrid the update does not show on the datagrid unless I close out of IE and reopen it. I can refresh or open the page in another window and the update does not show. I have to exit entirely and restart in order for any updates or additions to show.Here is my licenseTracker.mxml
I am working on a function to generate a form at runtime in Flex based on a call to the DB. The call to the DB returns the field types, id, tooltips etc as an arraycollection, the arraycollection is then parsed in order to ascertain what control to display based on the type field in the array - this bit works fine.However, i am stuck on trying to save the form fields back to the database using a CFC.my form rendering code is as follows but how do i save values entered back to the database? rendering code..
[Bindable] public var getglobalprofileb:ArrayCollection; public function init(event:ResultEvent):void {[code].......
I have updated the mxml code to only show the needed code for the program to run the update.
I am new to Flex and have an issue I hope you all can help me out with.
