loading external movies ondemand with counter?

[09876]

I have a MC that loads external swf at user request, then the user can click on back and foward buttons to see the pictures. Well, now I have a problem if I'm going to use all the pictures in one file(swf), the file will be very large. With that in mind I have made several files (swf) with 06 pictures in wich one. Now how can I load pics (sfw with 06 pics in it)on demand, without losing the basic back and foward navigation buttons

take alook at this

Perhaps with a counter?

thanks,

Easy (i think) when you click for forward or backward just add to a variable and it should do it fine....

ie. mov1 pic1 to pic6

when you press forward starting from the first pic you add 1 to your variable. Then you either send the playhead to the frame label of the pic or load the next or previous movie.

You just need to work with variables, you could put your info in an array as well...

Hey Sharky99,
here is the codes for the MC and buttons

There is a button "pic" on the main movie with this action:
on (release) {
loadMovieNum ("pics.swf", 2);
}

and when user clicks on, it loads a empty MC called "msc, clipviewer pics"

with back and foward buttons:

back:
on (release) {
clipContainer.gotoAndStop(clipContainer._currentframe-1);
}

foward:
on (release) {
clipContainer.gotoAndStop(clipContainer._currentframe+1);
}
with these parameters:
titleField: pics1
clipUrl: pics1.swf

which will load this movie:
pics1.swf

and it will use the buttons above to go back and foward through the 06 pics

I try to get around with your directions but id does not load the next movie, which is:
pics2.swf (so on)

Also I'm wondering what should I do in order to load the prevews movie (from pics2.swf to pics1.swf) (so on)

Thanks a lot,
I hope I could explain what I need, if not please ask me

Ok you got a movie with a button that loads the .swf

first label your frames with the pics

ie. frame 1 (pics 1&2) label 1, frame 3 (pics 3&4) label 2

in the first frame of your main movie add a variable
ie. movno = 1
lab=1

in the button that calls the back & forward buttons and load the movie add:

_level2.gotoAndStop("1&quot(your first label)

in your back button add:

lab=lab-1
if (lab=0 or lab>=1 & lab<=3) {
loadMovieNum (&quot;pics1.swf&quot;, 2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(&quot;1&quot;
} else if (lab>=4 & lab<=6) {
movno = &quot;2&quot;;
} else if (lab>=7 & lab<=9) {
movno = &quot;3&quot;;
} else if (lab>=10 & lab<=12) {
movno = &quot;4&quot;;
}
my_movie = &quot;pics&quot; + movno + &quot;.swf&quot;;
loadMovieNum (my_movie, 2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(lab);




in your forward button add:

lab=lab+1
if (lab>12) {
loadMovieNum (&quot;pics4.swf&quot;, 2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(&quot;12&quot; 'change 12 for your last label
} else if (lab>=4 & lab<=6) {
movno = &quot;2&quot;;
} else if (lab>=7 & lab<=9) {
movno = &quot;3&quot;;
} else if (lab>=10 & lab<=12) {
movno = &quot;4&quot;;
}
my_movie = &quot;pics&quot; + movno + &quot;.swf&quot;;
loadMovieNum (my_movie, 2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(lab);



this should work but maybe you'll have to use the _root before all the variables
