Hi there,
I made an swf that displays 8 thumbnails at a time. The locations of the content for the thumbs comes from an external text file, that contains a string of folder names that hold the images.
I now feed this string into an array, by splitting the string up using:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#0000FF]stop[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
theArray = [COLOR=#000000]new[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000FF]Array[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
pr_var = [COLOR=#000000]new[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000FF]LoadVars[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
pr_var.[COLOR=#0000FF]onLoad[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]function[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000FF]if[/COLOR] COLOR=#000000[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
projArray = [COLOR=#0000FF]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#000080]projArray[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]split[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0000FF]gotoAndPlay[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0000FF]trace[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000FF]else[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]{[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#0000FF]trace[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR][COLOR=#FF0000]“can’t get the txt file”[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#0000FF]gotoAndPlay[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000]}[/COLOR];
pr_var.[COLOR=#0000FF]load[/COLOR]COLOR=#000000[/COLOR];
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]
Then I used the following code to load only the first 8 items:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] startIndex:[COLOR=#0000FF]Number[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000080]0[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] endIndex:[COLOR=#0000FF]Number[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000080]8[/COLOR];
[COLOR=#000000]var[/COLOR] projRange = [COLOR=#0000FF]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#000080]projArray[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000FF]slice[/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]([/COLOR]startIndex, endIndex[COLOR=#000000])[/COLOR];
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]
Now, my original array contains 22 items for now, how would I add a “next” Button to load items the next 8 items (8 to 16 and after that 16 to 22)?
Thanks for any help,
Rufus
