Hey there,
I am doing a modified version of the xml slideshow. I have no buttons or events to change photo, it is just an auto slideshow. I added the crossfades found in another area of these forums, but after adding that,now my movie won’t loop. I’m sure it’s something simple I’m missing. Any help would be appreciated. Here is the code.
delay = 3000;
//////////////////////////////////////
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = [];
description = [];
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i<total; i++) {
image* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
description* = xmlNode.childNodes*.childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
id = setInterval(preloadPic, 100);
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("images.xml");
// ///////////////////////////////////
var loadTot = 0;
var k = 0;
function preloadPic() {
clearInterval(id);
var con = picture.duplicateMovieClip("con"+k, 9984+k);
con.loadMovie(image[k]);
var temp = _root.createEmptyMovieClip("temp"+k, 99+k);
temp.onEnterFrame = function() {
var total = con.getBytesTotal();
var loaded = con.getBytesLoaded();
percent = Math.round((loaded/total*100)/image.length);
preloader.preload_bar._xscale = loadTot+percent;
info.text = "Loading picture "+k+" of "+image.length+" total";
if (loaded == total && total>4) {
con._visible = 0;
nextPic();
loadTot += percent;
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
};
}
function nextPic() {
if (k<image.length-1) {
k++;
preloadPic();
} else {
firstImage();
preloader._visible = 0;
info.text = "";
}
}
