Hi,

When I load an external swf, there is no loader and the main thing is the external swfs do not fade in and out.

How do I put a loader in and how to I get the swfs to fade?

Thanks Nick

I just submitted the update, it is #23 in the queue so it should be there to download in no time. This will fade external items just like library items.

Great component, here are a few things that might save a few of you some headaches.

1.) The variable ‘mainAreaHeight’ is defined as ‘mainareaHeight’ in the beginning of the action script. CS3 through a few errors so correcting the case in the variable names throughout the script fixed the problems.

2.) I was trying to load an external swf movie which loaded other movies inside of itself. For some reason the script wasn’t preserving the x & y coordinates if the external movie loaded other movies within itself. This may not be the issue in it’s entirety but the fix was to make the following changes to the loadContent function:

@squaredmonkey

Yes, the XML for this file only tells which movieclip to load in the area, whether from the library. If you want to have just text loading in the area you’ll need to modify the file.

Add an area in the XML for each tab to hold the text you want to load. Have the tabs load the same movieclip everytime (pretty much just a movieclip with a textfield), only you will set the text based on what is in the XML file.

I’m incredibly new to flash (just started two days ago), and have an easy question which you’ll have to take a look at my website to see.

First, go here and scroll about halfway down: http://orlandounited.com/indextest.php

See how the “look” of it is there but none of the tabs show up?

Then, if you go here they work perfectly fine: http://orlandounited.com/source/tabs_flash8.swf

But then if I put the indextest.php file into the source folder, it affects the entire page and takes out most everything on the page like this:

http://orlandounited.com/source/indextest.php

I hope there is a solution since I spent $10 on it. :-\

While I’m here… Is there not a way to type all the text I want in the tabs content in the XML file, or do I have to do it through Flash? :-\

@purplefish32 Yes, but you would need to do some extra programming. You would have to add color as an attribute to each node in the XML , then change Flash to look for and set this color for each tab.

Hi Michael,

Like a few others I appear to be experiencing a sizing issue. When I alter the mainAreaWidth and mainAreaHeight parameters they do not seem to be working as expected.

Also could you please send me the customised code which allows html to be loaded from the xml.

My email address is

Thanks

Chris
