Ok so i’ve try to use this tutorial:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm
I first change the layout, dimension and color of the flash file. I also edited the image.xml pointing my own picture. Then :
- when I’m in Flash and i’m hitting Ctrl-Enter (Test movie) every things fine.
- when I’m in the folder of the file and I double-click on my “gallery.swf” evety things fine.
The problem is when i try my flash from a html file. I have all the layout but no picture display. The preloader bar seems to not moving.
Is there anything I did wrong ?
my .XML files
<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8” standalone=“yes”?>
<images>
<pic>
<image>\camion\img_0217.jpg</image>
<caption>Kresge</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>\camion\img_0218.jpg</image>
<caption>Media Lab</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>\camion\img_0219.jpg</image>
<caption>Stata Center</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>\camion\img_0220.jpg</image>
<caption>Stata Lobby</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>\camion\img_0221.jpg</image>
<caption>Construction</caption>
</pic>
</images>
my flash code:
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = ;
description = ;
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = “file not loaded!”;
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load(“camion.xml”);
// ///////////////////////////////////
listen = new Object();
listen.onKeyDown = function() {
if (Key.getCode() == Key.LEFT) {
prevImage();
} else if (Key.getCode() == Key.RIGHT) {
nextImage();
}
};
Key.addListener(listen);
previous_btn.onRelease = function() {
prevImage();
};
next_btn.onRelease = function() {
nextImage();
};
// ///////////////////////////////////
p = 0;
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
filesize = picture.getBytesTotal();
loaded = picture.getBytesLoaded();
preloader._visible = true;
if (loaded != filesize) {
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = 100*loaded/filesize;
} else {
preloader._visible = false;
if (picture._alpha<100) {
picture._alpha += 10;
}
}
};
function nextImage() {
if (p<(total-1)) {
p++;
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
}
function prevImage() {
if (p>0) {
p–;
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[p], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[p];
picture_num();
}
}
function firstImage() {
if (loaded == filesize) {
picture._alpha = 0;
picture.loadMovie(image[0], 1);
desc_txt.text = description[0];
picture_num();
}
}
function picture_num() {
current_pos = p+1;
pos_txt.text = current_pos+" / "+total;
}
that’s the kind of thing where it’s nice to get another pair of eyes looking at it. sometimes hard to spot the obvious.
