I am building a Flash file that has two thumbnail scrollers, and I’m having difficulty with it. The basic way it’s supposed to work is like this… I have a t-shirt, and want to put a graphic on the t-shirt. The t-shirt is already loaded with no problem. I load the thumbnail script so I can pick from available graphics to place on the t-shirt. Fine so far. Now I want to show the back of the t-shirt, and select a different image for the back. I’ve tried this two different ways:
- Have them in different layers of the same frame, so that I can hide the inactive layer without erasing the info for that layer. The problem with this is that it seems something in the second instance of the thumbnail script is overriding the ability of the first instance to work properly. As you’ll see here, the thumbnails load fine either way, but you can only change the picture if you hit “flip product”: http://www.webtronixdesign.com/putyourname/newflash/index.php?productid=23
or
2) Have the front and back in different frames. This seems to work better, but now it refreshes the initial image every time it flips between the frames rather than keeping the image that had been chosen:

So basically I’m curious how I can either 1) keep the second instance from interfering with the first if in the same frame; or 2) disable the refreshing of the initial image.
Thanks for your help. Sorry to make this so complicated. Fantastic script, by the way.
