Hello and at first thnx for taking the time to read into this.
I’m working on a project of making a page with a simple scrollbar based on the Kirupa tutorial below:
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm
First to say the Kirupa Tutorial works flawless.
What I’m trying to do is to is replacing the static information with dynamic fields. Those load data/text/pics by XML input.
This all works fine until i make the mask page and activate this. I made this page at the end to test in the data loading worked, which ofcourse worked.
Now when i remove the mask layer and render the fla the text showed up again.
After recreating the page over and over (im a noob flash user with high goals) i started to check the end fla of the tutorial above. I changed the textfields in the movieclip named: “content” from “static” to “dynamic” and tada … i finally found the reason why this all goes wrong. So i went to my fla and change the fields with “static” entered some text and it showed up
Some how dynamic textfields and masks dont work well together.
Ive read some forums n topics about that the movieclips most likely reset them selfs and there are ways around it but I have no clue were to search or how to edit so it does get to work
Ive added the fla and the xml code below (xml file name: droomsymboliek.xml … place both fla and xml in same directory
<?xml version=“1.0”?>
<droomsymboliek>
<pagina>
<titel>Droomsymboliek.</titel>
<tekstblok1>here comes text 1</tekstblok1>
<tekstblok2>here comes text 2</tekstblok2>
<tekstblok3>here comes text 3</tekstblok3>
</pagina>
</droomsymboliek>
Later on I replace XML input for PHP/SQL communication or when that fails let msl/php echo xml
But for now can someone please help me. Posting a link to a sollution works as well. I can read AS and edit it, thousant thanks in advanded
