Multiple XML galleries skipping

programming flash
1

I’m using a xml gallery with my customizations. However I have a problem with the arrow key functions.

My entire site is in flash (CS3, Actionscript 2.0) with a separate scene,one frame, and various buttons to load separate xml files for the XML photo gallery. Going to the photo gallery page intially, the arrow keys load the previous and next images incrementally by 1. However, when clicking on another button that loads another xml file the images skip, by 2! If I go to another button with a different xml file load it then skips in increments of 3.

It is driving me crazy. Is there an easy fix? I tried adding
Key.removeListener(keyListener);

But It didn’t work.

Please help!

thanks!

Each button on the photo scene has the following code (mountain.xml is one example, landscapes.xml, is another)

on (press) {
xmlData.load(“mountains.xml”);
}

Here’s the actionscript code on the first frame of the photo scene.

function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
thumbnails = [];
link = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbnails* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
link* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
thumbnails_fn(i);
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = “file not loaded!”;
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;

p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();

preloader._visible = true;

preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;

picture._alpha += 10;
}
}
};
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
flyout_mc.desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
