Thanks,
i didnt manage to get it working setting the url in the panel but found the following actionscript worked so all is fine...
this.myloader.contentPath = "http://www.pitzundpartner.de/flash/test/diashow.swf";
this.myloader.load();
cheers for the advice

Hi there,
I've searched the forum and can't seem to get the answer to a simple question...
I'm using the loader component which is perfect for what i'm trying to do and in this case suits the task better than createEmptyMovieClip. My question is, does the jpeg or .swf i'm loading HAVE to be in...
Billwatson,
Thanks a lot. I'm no flash expert so it might take me a little while to figure out how all the script works, but it's just what I wanted and hopefully I can get my head round it and put it to good use.
Thanks again
Jamie
Hi flashpro
thanks a lot thats exactly what I'm looking for. However... I would like to learn how to construct the slideshow myself. Not JUST because it's free, but because i will know how to do it in the future for other websites and also learn about how PHP script links into flash which I am...
@ Bill Watson
Hi there, I have the same question as 'jiyano' and I didn't think i'd be able to perform the task within flash. Could you please send me the .php file that retrieves the list of files from the directory??
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Jamie
Hi,
thanks, whenever you get some free time, that would be great. Here is a link to a file with just the scrolling section of the website, it may be much easier to work with:

thank you
jamie
ok, here's the script from scene one which regulates the stopping points of the scrollbox...
ms = textbox.Message.maxscroll;
scale = scrollheight/ms;
if (ms>1) {
if (!dragpress) {
textbox.scrollbar.scrollbox._yscale = 2000/textbox.Message.maxscroll;
textbox.scrollbar.scrollbox._y =...
Hello. I'm making a very small and simple flash website and have made a scrollbar which works almost perfectly. When manually selecting the 'scrollbox' and moving it up and down it stops exactly at the top and bottom of the scrolltrack. the 'up' arrow also works perfectly but when pressing the...
Hey,
I'm no expert either but a couple of basic suggestions...
make sure you use http://www. at the start of the absolute path and make sure that the .swf file is both on the server and youve changed the permissions on the file so that it can be viewed when online. Also make sure the link to...
Thanks, that makes sense. I didn't realise the "*" would make the frame fill the rest of the page.
I have little experience and it's the first web site i've made so I didnt take into consideration the implications of making everything with flash. What tips would you give to make it more...
Hi there,
I've posted this message in the GoLive forum already but haven't had any responses so I was hoping somebody here could help me out...
I have a problem with this flash website im doing:
www.pitzundpartner.de/narzissengarten
Its a basic 2 frame frameset made in golive, the top frame...
Hello again,
still can't find a way to fix both frames in the frameset into place. It is possible to do it easily with a table within a normal html page, but the advantage of a frameset is that wherever the user navigates on the site, the menu bar in the top frame stays the same...ie. the whole...
hi everyone,
I have a problem with this flash website im doing...
www.pitzundpartner.de/narzissengarten
Its a basic 2 frame frameset made in golive, the top frame holds the navigation movie and the bottom holds the other pages which are flash movies of the same size. The problem is; the top...
Ok problem solved. DRJ478 thanks very much for the suggestions. In the end it was the fact that my file containing the script was a .html file and not a .php file which was screwing everything up.
Thanks again, have a good day,
jamie
Hey, ok sorry. Right here's a fuller explanation...
I've tested the PHP code by putting it on its own in a .php file, uploading it to the site and looking at what comes out, and it produces the desired result... ie.
<?php $num = rand(1, 4); ?>
"<?php echo $num; ?>.swf">
this produces...
Hi.
So here is the script ive come up with after adapting it to the golive layout thats used for the page and the 4 movies i'm rotating, which ive now called 1.swf, 2.swf, 3.swf and 4.swf
<tr>
<td colspan="3" width="860"><object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"...
Thank you very much. As you can tell I'm in the early stages of learning PHP so your help is invaluable, I've not seen the shuffle function before so thank you for showing me.

Hello everyone,
Complete novice trying to fumble around using PHP for the first time i'm afraid. I've been told that server side scripting provides an easy way to rotate several flash movies I have on the homepage of my website. ie. i want a different flash banner to run along the top of the...
