Need help with XML Photo gallery/Slideshow
Dear forumers,
I need help with creating a automatic slideshow with control buttons.
Have browsed through Kirupa's tutorials and have made references to the following 2 tutorials
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_flash_photogallery.htm
http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/xml_slideshow.htm
I am trying to combine the codes for these 2 tutorials so that I can have the images cycle automatically but at the same time with control buttons
like "back", "next" and "pause".
Please see below for my attempt..
stop();
delay = 3000;
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {
xmlNode = this.firstChild;
image = ;
image2 = ;
image3 = ;
description = ;
total = xmlNode.childNodes.length;
for (i=0; i
image[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;
image2[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
image3[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[2].firstChild.nodeValue;
description[i] = xmlNode.childNodes[i].childNodes[3].firstChild.nodeValue;
}
firstImage();
} else {
content = "file not loaded!";
}
}
xmlData = new XML();
xmlData.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlData.onLoad = loadXML;
xmlData.load("images.xml");

Issue 1
------------
I tried to assign the functions nextImage(); and prevImage(); into my 'next' and 'back' buttons respectively
The automated slideshow works fine but there seems to be a bug somewhere whereby 'next' brings me to the next screen but
right after that the other screens will jump about in wrong sequences.
I have no wonder what is wrong as i am a beginner in AS.
------------
Issue 2
------------
I require a 'pause' button in my slideshow as well
Is anyone kind enough to help me write a function that I can assign to my 'pause' button to make the slideshow pause?
I see a pause_slideshow() within the slideshow() function but I do not really understand the codes, that is why I am having so much
difficulty.
Please help me! Thanks in advance :hugegrin:
