loading two slideshows on same page....

[jamnden]

Hi all,
I'm trying to load two different slide shows from two different folders onto the same KMs page importing the .swf file. For some reason it does not play both slide shows...? If I load one it will play it and then when I load the second, it will play that one but not the first.

Question 1: Is it possible to run two different slide shows from two different folders on the same KM page?

Question 2: Is this the best way to do it?

Thanks Folks!

You should never, ever feel this way. Every single person here at the forum and in this KM community is as important as the next and the rule of thumb is the only stupid question is the one never asked

Instead of importing the one swf, I suggest you merely create two slideshows enclosing each of them into separate movie clips.

Thanks Chris. Its just that not knowing AS has me in awe of some of the banter here.

That's a good idea Phil...Thanks!

Jst to renforce what Chris has said, this is the users forum, run for the benefit of us all, there are no egos here, because we have all benefited from being members. Often newer members bring a fresh approach to the product that us older lags miss, because as a process of the learning curve there are many happy accidents along the way, which create unexpected desireable results. - Keep asking, and learning, and before long you will be returning the favour with your own experience.

I'd say at least half of what I've learned about AS was from me trying to answer someones question that I found interesting and spending alot of time figuring out how to do something just so I could explain it to someone else.
