Hello all,
First of all excuse my badly written english because I’m french
I’m actually having problems with some AS code. I have a news ticker successfuly adapted from this site, and it’s working okay. But I have to add some features I cannot solve by myself, so I 'm asking some help here. My problem is the following :
By what means can I force the Setinterval to be “skipped” (I’d like to add a fast forward/rewind buttons) with a simple MC ? I know a bit about the clearInterval function, but this leads to an akward behaviour of my flash movie (once skipped, the XML is not read in a chronological order… and so on).
The trick is that I I have differents controls type :
- a simple combo previous/next + play-pause buttons
- 4 areas that lead to a particular node (which works partially)
Instead of posting the whole code here, I attach my source .fla + XML (to be renamed as .xml extension is not recognized in the attachments) for you to see how messy is my code (more than partially adapted from the news_ticker.fla used on the tutorials here)
Thanks anyone for helping me with some answers so I’ll be able to finish this project :}
thanks,
K.
