FAQ - Flash XML Galleries / ActionScript:
- My XML gallery does not display any images.
- I defined 10 photos in the XML file but why does the gallery only display 5?
- How can I add html text into a textbox?
- How do I load the gallery into another movie (swf file)?
- How do I have multiple galleries on one site?
- How to remove the bright flash of light transition effect?
Make sure you put the xml files, images folder in the right place:
Say you have a HTML file called index.html and it embeds the swf file called gallery.swf. You also have some xml files, e.g. gallery.xml, and an image folder called "images". You should always put index.html, gallery.xml and "images" folder into the same folder, nomatter which folder gallery.swf is in.
Normally that's because there are some syntax errors in the XML file. Examine your xml file carefully you may find some syntax error in the fifth or sixth image's xml tag.
Not closing the tag properly is a very common mistake:
<image>......</image>
Wrong:
<image>......</image
<image>......<image>
<image>......</images>
1. make the textbox support html format:
yourTextBox.htmlText = "<b>something</b>";
2. if you want to read htmlText from an xml file, you need to write it this way in the xml file: (only change the text in red)
