Hi!
I’m having a problem on a Flash website I’m working on and I can’t figure outo what’s happening.
So, the flash e reading from a XML file and all the works (portfolio company) are divided in 4 parts (multimedia, design, 3d animation and pos-production). In the begining of the site Ia have all that 4 options (4 buttons), but no matter is my choice this is always loading in first place de multimedia content. Why?
e.g. If I click the button design, goes to the layout position of design but the content is the multimedia one.
Note: Each area as a different layout position. Here goes the ActionScript code that I’m using to populate the content:
var boxes:Array = new Array();
//Defines space between movieClips thubnails
var gridx:Number = 32;
var gridy:Number = 32;
var isto = this;
function resetBoxes():Void {
_root.area_imagem.imagem.contentPath = "";
_root.area_texto.area.text = "";
boxes = new Array();
var cnt:Number = 0;
for (var i = 0; i<7; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j<3; j++) {
//Remove all added MovieClips
isto["box_"+cnt].removeMovieClip();
cnt++;
}
}
cnt = 0;
for (var i = 0; i<7; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j<3; j++) {
isto.attachMovie("box"+(cnt+1), "box_"+cnt, cnt);
boxGrid = isto["box_"+cnt];
//Defines initial coords to grid construction (of thumbnail)
boxGrid._x = gridx*i;
boxGrid._y = gridy*j;
boxGrid._alpha = 0;
boxGrid.filled = false;
cnt++;
boxes.push(boxGrid);
//trace("box_"+cnt);
}
}
trace(_root.array.length);
for (i=0; i<_root.array.length; i++) {
if ((_root.array*.ano == _root.ano) && (_root.array*.area == _root.area)) {
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*boxes.length);
while (boxes[randomNumber].filled) {
//trace(boxes[randomNumber].filled);
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*boxes.length);
}
boxes[randomNumber].onEnterFrame = fadeIn;
boxes[randomNumber].onPress = pressed;
boxes[randomNumber].onRollOver = RollOver;
boxes[randomNumber].onRollOut = RollOut;
boxes[randomNumber].header = _root.array*.header;
boxes[randomNumber].projecto = _root.array*.projecto;

boxes[randomNumber].pic6 = _root.array*.pic6;
boxes[randomNumber].pic7 = _root.array*.pic7;
boxes[randomNumber].pic8 = _root.array*.pic8;
boxes[randomNumber].pic9 = _root.array*.pic9;
boxes[randomNumber].pic10 = _root.array*.pic10;
boxes[randomNumber].pic11 = _root.array*.pic11;
boxes[randomNumber].pic12 = _root.array*.pic12;
boxes[randomNumber].texto = _root.array*.texto;
boxes[randomNumber].textlink = _root.array*.textlink;
boxes[randomNumber].link = _root.array*.link;
boxes[randomNumber].filled = true;
boxes[randomNumber].thumb = _root.array*.thumb;
boxes[randomNumber].ano = _root.array*.ano;
boxes[randomNumber].link = _root.array*.link;
boxes[randomNumber].use = true;
}
}
//one empty thumbnail
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*boxes.length);
while (boxes[randomNumber].filled) {
//trace(boxes[randomNumber].filled);
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*boxes.length);
}
boxes[randomNumber].onEnterFrame = fadeIn;
boxes[randomNumber].filled = true;
boxes[randomNumber].use = false;
//one empty thumbnail
randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*boxes.length);

// end of for
}
function RollOut() {
stopDrag();
_root.balao._y = -100;
}
function RollOver() {
startDrag(_root.balao, true);
_root.balao.caixaProjecto.text = this.projecto;
_root.balao.appear();
}
function pressed():Void {
_root.numImagem = 1;
_root.area_texto.area.text = this.texto;
_root.area_imagem.imagem.contentPath = "imagens/"+this.pic1;

//Delete the onEnterFrame method to free up CPU
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
}
And this is the ActiionScript Code to load XML and defines the structure:
function struct(header, projecto, pic1, pic2, pic3, pic4, pic5, pic6, pic7, pic8, pic9, texto, textlink, link, ano, thumb, area) {
var _l1 = this;
_l1.header = header;
_l1.projecto = projecto;
_l1.pic1 = pic1;

_l1.pic4 = pic4;
_l1.pic5 = pic5;
_l1.pic6 = pic6;
_l1.pic7 = pic7;
_l1.pic8 = pic8;
_l1.pic9 = pic9;
_l1.texto = texto;
_l1.textlink = textlink;
_l1.link = link;
_l1.ano = ano;
_l1.thumb = thumb;
_l1.area = area;
}
// End of the function
