Dynamic Flash Slide Show

[Faheem786]

Hi,

I'm looking for putting a slide show of the hot products on the home page.

The hot products are searched from in datatbase table (PHP + MySql).

I need to display 4 images at a time which needs to be scrolling from left to right. When I click on the picture it should go to a particular link.

Is there any way the flash file could read the images & links from a text file or any other formatted file like xml?

I did a search in google which brought many results but most of them dont allow links.

As I have no idea about scripting in flash, I would really need your kind help.

Awaiting for some replies

with no actionscript knowledge you are not going to find this easy to do

make sure that there is a field in the mysql database for the link

run the search from flash....there are many scripts available and i can give you one if you need it

when flash recives the results you will have to loop through them and create a movie clip to contain each image. make the instance name of the clip the same as the link. you can then get at the link when the clip is clipped by referencing the name of the clip
