I want load in thumbnails from an xml file to flash to a movieclip called thumb_mc - which duplicates depending on how many pictures are declared in the xml file - but I have no idea how to go about it. I have attached a picture of the concept.
What I am aiming for is one movieclip in flash to duplicate depending on how many images are declared in xml and display them like a grid. But I have no idea how to do this.
here is the same zip i gave to chrissy Again you also will have to change th xml file to match you contents, as long as <pic> stays because the fla calls for it.
If you don't think you're going to like the answer, then don't ask the question.
Thanks a bunch...any idea how I get the captions to load without having to click the thumbnails? I'm basically creating a Flash catalog and I'd like each caption to load automatically under each corresponding thumbnail.
Yes, I'm looking to put the captions under the thumbnails. I would just create a bunch of thumbnails with captions embedded in the .jpgs, but I'd like the caption text to be able to scale well along with the Flash movie (this is for a full screen CD-ROM project). Thanks again for the help!
The zip file that you sent is great but I have put 10 images with captions in the xml but only 5 captions work. Also I would like to add and add to cart function to the current code but I would like the paypalObj.item_name to read in the caption according to the thumb that is clicked???? Here is the code:
