Hi and thanks for the various photogallery tutorials. I’ve completed the xml photogallery and the automatic slideshow version of it and I am having some problems.
First, I have not altered kirupa’s code, so I don’t think I need to post it for you all. The tutorial can be found here with the code. My test site can be found [url=“http://www.materialsystems.org/testing/”]here.
Here is my situation: I have create multiple slideshows each with their own xml, swf, and jpgs and they are being accessed through a menu in a parent movie. Everything works fine at first, but if I click on either a new or the same slideshow the interval starts skipping. So, if the News slideshow has 5 images and the Bio slideshow has 7 images this is what happens:
News (autoloaded when main site loads):
1,2,3,4,5,1…
click on Bio (under the “information” menu):
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,1…
click back on News:
1,3,5,2,4,1… (begins skipping every other one)
click back on Bio:
1,4…(usually skips every 3 but at this point the interval skip is unpredictable)
You don’t even have to click on different menu item for this skipping to occur. If you just click on the “News” button repeatedly and the same skipping happens. Each time you click on it the skip grows by 1.
So, it seems that I don’t quite understand something (setInterval, parent/child movies, etc). It seems like the interval isn’t getting cleared or something. Please help. Thanks
