    Problem loading one field from MySQL to scroll box

    I have a MySQL database table which contains a text field (along with quite a few other fields) and I want to load it into a scroll box (much like I would if it were a .txt file). So far I can load the field (named Description) into a scrollable text box but cannot get the scroll bar to...

    Yes, I have a box in the center of the stage where I want to display the picture corresponding to the item from the selected item from the list. Hope that clarifies the issue. BTW - The button, picture, movie, and scroll box you put inside a scroll box was nice. I'd love to see the fla...

    How to determine existence of graphic

    I am storing images on my server with a naming convention of ID (obtained from a database) and "IMAGEx.JPG" (where x = 1 to 8). I am using a loop (8 times) containing a loadMovie to get the image and display it in my movie. This works great unless one or more of my series of images...

    Revolving Buttons A/S not executing

    Your fla really helped. My problem was not loading my button over my mc. I had tried something similar, but was off just enough for it to not work. Virt, are you using a dial up or slow dsl connection? I'm using adsl and don't notice any significant jerkiness. Thanks again for all the help...

    Revolving Buttons A/S not executing

    Thanks for the effort wangbar. I looked at your link and that seems to be exactly what I'm trying for. I started over from scratch as you suggested and I can get my buttons revolving around the central object just fine, but I still get the same results as before. I would dearly love to see...

    I have one frame which contains 6 layers. Layer one is a MC which is a name centered on the stage. Layers two through six are individual buttons which slowly revolve around layer one. So far everything works perfectly. When I edit the buttons and put an oval background in the Over state and...

    How do I set variable on 1 movie and access on another?

    How do I set variable on 1 movie and access on another?

    Movie 1 is a map. Each state has a button. When the button for a state is clicked it loads another movie (all states load the same movie). When the second movie starts running I want to know which state it was selected from. Thanks in advance for the help.
