Newbie needs help with Photo Gallery

programming flash
1

Hello all, this is my first post and i need help with the tutorial found at:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/photogallery.htm

Since I wanted to see how it worked, I made a folder on my Desktop with some images for the gallery, specially made to follow this tutorial.
It all was okay till I tried to test the movie, when i got the following error:

Error opening URL “C:\ocuments and Settings\inthia\scritorio\magenes
ter/inter1.jpg”

I changed the code like this:

this.pathToPics = "C:\Documents and Settings\Cinthia\Escritorio\Imagenes\Inter/";
// fill this array with your pics
this.pArray = ["inter1.jpg", "inter2.jpg", "inter3.jpg", "inter4.jpg", "inter5.jpg", "inter6.jpg", "inter7.jpg", "inter8.jpg"];

What’s wrong? it ate all the capital letters after each slash on the error message, and it never opened anything. Is this tutorial only for galleries on a website? because I want to make a movie and then burn it on a CD.

What can I do?? I’d appreciate any help, ty!

Save your jpg’s as non-progressive. For example; if you are using photoshop to edit your graphics re-save them but, select baseline instead of progressive. I had this same problem and I found the answer in a thread on the second page of this forum subject. I hope it helps.:nurse:

Let me know if it worked. I’m pretty new at this, but I’m getting hang of it…I hope:h:

Let me try again Kenshejoe, I’ll see what happens and will post back. Thanks for your suggestion, it might save my day, sorry for not answering before, I just lost hope after 2 days of checking back and see no answer. So HUGS ty ty ty! :angel:

Ah well… It turned out that they all are saved on Baseline, I didn’t remember to have saved them on Progressive… So I guess that was not the problem. :frowning:

\ is an escape character, try

this.pathToPics = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\Cinthia\\Escritorio\\Imagenes\\Inter/";
// fill this array with your pics
this.pArray = ["inter1.jpg", "inter2.jpg", "inter3.jpg", "inter4.jpg", "inter5.jpg", "inter6.jpg", "inter7.jpg", "inter8.jpg"];
