Trying to create an XML driven nav system.
I went thru the tutorial on Kirupa and it worked fine. My problem is that I want to load SWFs into the existing navigation SWF as opposed to external html pages. First I cannot even load SWFs without using gotoURL and showing the entire path. Second I cannot load the SWFs into the existing movie. This is the XML code I’ve been trying to use:
<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“iso-8859-1”?>
<menu name=“links”>
<menu name=“about”>
<item name=“mission statement” action=“loadMovie” variables=“mission.swf”/>
<item name=“vision” action=“loadMovie” variables=“vision.swf”/>
<item name=“team” action=“getURL” variables=“team.swf”/>
</menu>
<menu name=“services”>
<item name=“architecture” action=“getURL” variables=“architecture.swf”/>
<item name=“multimedia” action=“getURL” variables=“multimedia.swf”/>
<item name=“design” action=“getURL” variables=“design.swf”/>
<item name=“branding” action=“getURL” variables=“branding.swf”/>
</menu>
<menu name=“portfolio”>
<item name=“architecture” action=“getURL” variables=“architecture.swf”/>
<item name=“multimedia” action=“getURL” variables=“multimedia.swf”/>
<item name=“design” action=“getURL” variables=“design.swf”/>
<item name=“branding” action=“getURL” variables=“branding.swf”/>
</menu>
<item name=“contact” action=“getURL” variables=“contact.swf”/>
</menu>
I’ve tried getURL and loadMovie but none of them seem to work. I have to believe that this is something quite simple, and it’s just a matter of syntax.
