Hey,
i'm working on an site and i created a series of flash files who
Loads thumbs and images from HardcodedXML, and Backgrounds from external XML.
I added
to the external XML an variable for X position and Y position
for the HardcodedXML images:
Code:
imageHolder.x = xml.slide[pict].@posx;
imageHolder.y = xml.slide[pict].@posy;
and everything works, it moves the imageholder around, but as soon I add a height and width variable the first image from the HardcodedXML doesn't load at all untill i switch to a different background.
so now i have this:
Code:
function changePicture(pict:Number):void {
pb.visible = true;
caption.text = xml.slide[pict].@caption;
loader.load(new URLRequest(xml.slide[pict].@data));
imageHolder.height = xml.slide[pict].@gova;
imageHolder.width = xml.slide[pict].@rohav;
imageHolder.x = xml.slide[pict].@posx;
imageHolder.y = xml.slide[pict].@posy;
}
*
rohav and
gova are Hebrew for height and width
if i remove height and width so everything is fine...
all of the code:
Code:
import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.data.DataProvider;
import fl.events.ListEvent;

Please help me figure it out...
Thanks! Tal.
