Hi, I am using kirupa’s flash gallery (not the xml one) and it works fine when I test it individually in it’s own movie. But when I use [COLOR=blue]loadMovie (‘gallery.swf’, loader);[/COLOR] to load the gallery into a main movie, the next/previous buttons disappear!!! I didn’t change the code much, just the path and the name of files which are needed to be load…My boss and I couldn’t figure it out what’s going on…so I am here to see if there’s any pro can help us out! Any suggestion will be nice, thanks.
Let me know if you need me to uploaded my fla files!
Here’s my code:
[COLOR=blue]stop();[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]/[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]i wrote this code, but you can use and abuse it however you like.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]the methods are defined in the order which they occur to make it[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]easier to understand.[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]/[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]// variables ------------------------------------------[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]// put the path to your pics here, include the slashes (ie. “pics/”)[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]// leave it blank if they’re in the same directory[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]this.pathToPics = “lightboxes/”;[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]// fill this array with your pics[/COLOR]
[COLOR=blue]this.pArray = [“l1.jpg”, “l2.jpg”, “l3.jpg”, “l4.jpg”, “l5.jpg”, “l6.jpg”, “l7.jpg”, “l8.jpg”];[/COLOR]
