I need to edit some AS which loads an external XML file, except instead of loading the image into the stage, I would rather have the click to the popup image open up a new window (either .swf or html).
xml structure is :
<images>
<thumb>image_01.jpg<thumb>
<big>big/image_01.jpg</big>
<pop>popup/image_01.jpg</pop>
</images>
here is the present AS code:
////////////////////////////////////////////////Load XML var global
_global.clickvalue = “”;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [ ];
xpos = [ ];
ypos = [ ];
big = [ ];
pop = [ ];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image = xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
big = xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
xpos = xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
ypos = xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[4].firstChild.nodeValue;
pop = xmlNode.childNodes.childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = “file not loaded!”;
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load(“images.xml”);
/////////////////////////////////////
p = 0;
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
_root.movie.mov.buttonleft.thumb1.picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
_root.movie.right_big.big.bigpic.loadMovie(big[0], 1);
var dup:MovieClip = null;
for (j=1; j<total; j++) {
dup = _root.movie.mov.buttonleft.thumb1.duplicateMovieClip(“thumb”+(j+1), j);
/////////////////////////////////////
/////////////////////////////////////
dup.picture.loadMovie(image[j], 1);
dup._x = xpos[j];
dup._y = ypos[j];
}
}
}
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
}
function setbigimage(a) {
var b = a;
var index = b.substr(5, a.length);
// trace(index);
_root.movie.right_big.big.bigpic.loadMovie(big[index-1]);
trace(description[index-1]);
//trace(big[index-1]);
// _root.movie.mov.buttonleft.thumb1.gotoAndStop(1);
}
function setpopup(f) {
var b = f;
var index = b.substr(5, f.length);
//trace(pop[index-1]);
_level0.popuploader(“popup”);
_level3.loadpic.loadMovie(pop[index-1]);
}
stop();
any help on what to change to get a new window to open up onstead of within the stage?
