Hey there, I downloaded Kirupa’s XML slideshow and
I wanted to know if it’s possible to load different albums from the same XML like for example the first slide show would run, then if the user clicks on another button a different slide show would start running, and so on.
What do I need to do in the XML and in the actionscript in order to indicate this difference between albums??
here’s the xml code:
<?xml version=“1.0” encoding=“utf-8” standalone=“yes”?>
<images>
<pic>
<image>http://www.claireschneider.com/weddings/images/blackandwhite/Resized/image1.jpg</image>
<caption>Black & White</caption>
</pic>
<pic>
<image>http://www.claireschneider.com/weddings/images/blackandwhite/Resized/image2.jpg</image>
<caption>Black & White</caption>
</pic>
</images>
Here’s the actionscript:
delay = 5000;
//-----------------------
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;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = “file not loaded!”;
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load(“images.xml”);
For your help Thanks
