Help with load xml driven swf in another swf

Hello people ... (sorry for my Google transalte English)
... I am desperate, tapping in place last week.
In fact, i make flash CD presentation in Adobe Flash CS5 AS2 (with minimal use of ActionScript). It occurs to me the next problem ... need to load flash image gallery that i already have created, in new presentation file. Gallery was created in Flash Slideshow maker and as products I have. Swf,. Xml and folders with thumbnails and picture (no. Fla file).
The concept of the presentation (as root is concerned) should look like in uploaded picture "izgled otvorenog cd-a". In each of the folder on cd presentation (as on picture) is a Flash presentation controlled by their xml file whose name I must not change. Exe file "Prezentacija 2011" is a presentation (Flash Projector) that i try to make. In the same presentation i create frames and for each of the frames added action:
loadMovie ("02_Kapije/kapije.swf", "kapije_ucitavanje");
kapije_ucitavanje._x = 23;
kapije_ucitavanje._y = 167;
stop ();
(Of course, for each item varies loadMovie root and instance name).
The problem is that presentations can't find xml file, apparently because they do not have the appropriate root. When all the files of the one gallery set in the same folder with the "Presentation 2011.exe" file, everything works normally ( however, as i said, i cannot change the name of Xml file and that disturb the concept of my CD presentation).
How can I drive loaded swf file from the above script to use Xml file in its folder?
HELP PLEASE!!!
P.S. ...and it looks so easy

you're welcome.
p.s. please mark helpful/correct responses.

Help with load and unload swf file.

hello, just now i try, to load my file using the code snippet 'load and unload' i manage to load the next file succesfully but why my recent file still appear in the background? how do i make it gone?

When you load another SWF you're loading it 'inside' the current SWF but it appears that you want to replace the current SWF entirely with the new SWF, is that correct?
If so you should make what's usually known as a 'stub' or a loader. Make an empty project that merely acts as a loader. It should load your first SWF and when you press a button on that first SWF to load a second SWF, it should signal the 'stub' it's loaded inside to unload the first SWF and then load the second.
e.g. a stub.swf (just coding out of memory, not error checked, just to give a general idea):
// make a new loader to do all the loading of SWFs
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
// and display
addChild(loader);
// a function to load a SWF into the loader (replacing any existing SWF)
function loadSWF(path:String):void
     // assure path is defined or do nothing
     if (!path) return;
     // load requested SWF
     loader.load(new URLRequest(path));
// load initial SWF
loadSWF('/path/to/1.swf');
For your 1.swf to use the function, you're currently inside the .content property of a Loader so I believe you can just run a command like: Object(this.parent.parent).loadSWF('/path/to/2.swf');
This example obviously lacks any error checking or transitions but you can add those and season to taste.

Need help with loading XML file

Hello,
I have been browsing the web/forums for an example on how to do this for a few days now. I managed to get this working in Flash Pro quite easily but I think I am missing something when I want to do the same thing in Flex.
Basically I want to load an XML file and then set the text values of 5 labels equal to the data in the XML file.
So I a button created in MXML and have set the click event as follows:
     click="dsSetup(event)"
I have also declared the following:
     public var myRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("assets/myFile.xml");   //folder located under src in project
     public var myLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
     public var myXML:XML;
My function that loads is as follows:
public function dsSetup(event:MouseEvent):void
     trace ("dsSetup");
     myXML = new XML (myLoader.data);
     h3.text = myXML.source.itemA;
     h4.text = myXML.source.itemB;
     h5.text = myXML.source.itemC;
     h7.text = myXML.source.itemD;
     h8.text = myXML.source.itemE;
     currentState = 'MainMenu';
myLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dsSetup);   // I think this line is now redundant as I have set it in the MXML
myLoader.load(myRequest);
This is the way I did it in Flash and it worked ok but I must be missing something in when it comes to Flex.
Can someone explain or point me to a good tutorial that shows how to load XML in Flex?
The ones I found seem to have about 50 lines of code just to load a file and add in way to much complexity for a beginner.
Many Thanks

I would suggest to save the loaded data in a Bindable variable and then to bind the text-properties to that:
[Bindable]
var myXML:XML;
public function dsSetup(event:MouseEvent):void
     myXML = new XML (myLoader.data);
     currentState = 'MainMenu';
<s:Label text="{myXML.source.itemA}"/>

Importing xml driven swf file -- is it asking for too much?

I want to import an ActionScript3 / xml driven swf file into Catalist, but it only imports the swf file.
I have placed all the external images and the xml file that calls them into the same folder as the swf and the catalist files, but the playback still does not work. It shows error messages when trying to run. Copying the files to Assets/ Media or Images folders also makes no difference...There is no way in Catalyst to reconnect the xml to the swf either...
Why can't Flash and Catalyst be more friendly? Will there be a better connectivity in the final version?

Hello there,
There are several reasons why this wouldn't work, especially during preview. I'd like to ask you a couple questions and have you try a couple things.
1. What file path are you saving your project to, and what location did you copy the XML and image files to?
2. Did you try publishing your project, and copying your additional files to the published locations?
3. Did you try the same steps as above, only using the deploy-to-web version posted on your server? You would load the application by going to your web browser and typing something like: http://yourserverhere.com/.../deploy-to-web/Main.html.
Let me know if any of those work. Because Catalyst cleans the space where preview files are kept, it would be difficult to have your scenario work during preview. However, you could probably get it to work in a published version.

Xml publisher enterprise!!! create rtf file dynamically with load xml data

i am new to xml publisher enterprise , i want a solution for this question ...
i want create rtf file dynamically with loading xml data....means i wrote a program in jsp where the the output in xml file simultaneously create rtf file..but i enable load the xml data in rtf file but when i goto rtf file from where data in that load xml then it genrate the columns..but i want in dynamiclly to load the data will you please guide me ......

Hi Atiq
Im not quite clear on the requirement here:
1. Do you just want to be able to extract the data and apply a template to the XML data from your jdp and render output?
If so then you can use the XMLP APIs ... the are in the user guide. Particularly:
RTFProcessor - converts RTF template to XSLFO stylesheet
FOProcessor - takes, XML data, XSLFO stylesheet and output format and generates the required output.
2. Do you want a template that will accept any data and just format it into rows and columns ? This can be written but your XML structure is going to have to be static, the data of course can be dynamic.

Error With loading XML file.Help me

Hi!
I am trying to make an mp3 player for my web site but I am
having a little problens and I hope you can help me out.
It is a xml driven mp3player. I have a mp3player.as file and
a songs.xml file. Inside my flash movie I only have #include
"mp3player.as".
Here is my mp3player.as code :
[CODE]
//Setup Sound Object
var s :Sound = new Sound();
s.onSoundComplete = playSong;
s.setVolume(75);
//Array of sounds
var sa:Array = new Array();
//Current Playing Song
var cps : Number = -1;
//Load the XML into a xml file
var xml :XML = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
xml.onLoad = function()
var nodes : Array = this.firstChild.childNodes;
for(var i=0;i<nodes.length;i++)
sa.push(nodes
.attributes.url);
playSong();
xml.load("mp3player.xml");
// Play mp3 file
function playSong() :Void
if(cps == sa.length -1)
cps = 0;
s.loadSound(sa[cps],true);
else
s.loadSound(sa[++cps],true);
[/CODE]
And here is my songs.xml file :
[CODE]
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<songs>
<song url="music\setsite.mp3" />
<song url="music\Soul Magic - Soul Magic.mp3" />
<song url="music\Technotronic - NRG Flow.mp3" />
</songs>
[/CODE]
Everytime I test my movie I have this msg :
Error opening URL
'file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/My%20Documents/Web%20Sites/site%20MA IO%202007/undefined'
What is wrong with my code?
When I comment this line xml.load("songs.xml") my movie runs
fine.But I cant fix it..
thank you

Others here in the forums know more about the Sound class
than I do... I haven't used it so much. You are using the
'streaming' type of sound with the isStreaming flag set to true
which means that it starts to play before its fully downloaded. So
on a slow connection I presume it could play and stop in the same
way that the timeline on a movie will pause playing if the rest of
it has not downloaded yet.
For a streaming sound, I guess you could get around this by
implementing a partial preload by using s.stop() after issuing the
s.loadSound command. Then do a "regular" preloader style checking
s.getBytesLoaded vs. s.getBytesTotal ... to a percentage (you could
even monitor the speed over 5-10 seconds to determine an
appropriate level of buffering...maybe) and then use s.start()
again.
That's how I'd tackle it, but like I said others here know
more about this, and perhaps they'll have better ideas. There
appear to be some quirks with the Sound class based on comments in
the flash 8 livedocs...

Error 2032 loading xml from swf

Hello everyone.
I have a php site (based on Joomla! CMS). In one php page, there is a <object> element wich loads the Adobe Flex 1.5 swf file that I have developed (Slideshow.swf). This swf file is a slideshow that loads a xml file using a httpservice. The xml file contains the urls to the images to be shown. The error occurs when thw swf file tries to load the xml file, but not always.
- SITUATION 1: Visiting http://localhost/Slideshow.html or http://localhost/Slideshow.swf
The html and the swf are the files generated by Adobe Flex builder.
Navigators: IE 8, Mozila Firefox 3.5.5
   --> Yes, it works!!
- SITUATION 2: Visiting http://mydomaing.com/folder1/folder2/Slideshow.html or http://mydomaing.com/folder1/folder2/Slideshow.swf
The html and the swf are the files generated by Adobe Flex builder.
Navigators:
     IE 8 --> Yes, it works!!
     Mozila Firefox 3.5.5   --> I don't get Error 2032, but the images can't be found. This is another problem...
- SITUATION 3: Visiting http://mydomain.com
Navigators: IE 8, Mozila Firefox 3.5.5
--> No, it doesnt' work!! I get Error 2032!!
The whole page loads. The swf loads, but when the swf tries to load the xml file, the fault event is throwed. Then I use an Alert.show. I'll give you as much information as I can:
ERROR MESSAGE (FOR SITUATION 3)
Message: faultCode:Server.Error.Request faultString:'HTTP request error' faultDetail:'Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]. URL: ./slideshowGallery.xml'

Error ID: 0
Fault code: Server.Error.Request
Fault detail: Error: [IOErrorEvent type="ioError" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="Error #2032"]. URL: ./slideshowGallery.xml
Fault string: HTTP request error
FLEX CODE
<mx:Application
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" layout="absolute" creationComplete="init();"
The init method:
private
function init():void{
httpService.send();
The httpservice element:
<mx:HTTPServiceid="httpService"url="
./slideshowGallery.xml"resultFormat="
e4x"fault="httpService_fault(event);"
result="httpService_result(event)"
/>
I think the handlers don't care. In SITUATION 3, the send() invocation always triggers the fault handler.
The xml file is in the same folder as the swf file (I use ./slideshowGallery.xml for the url field of the httpservice element).
This is the html code generated by the php page of my site:
<div id="ol-flashheader">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="/templates/mx_joofree2/images/header.swf" width="700" height="240">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="movie" value="/templates/mx_joofree2/images/header.swf" />
</object>
</div>
Note: header.swf is my Slideshow.swf renamed.
Ah, I have also a cross-domain policy file: http://mydomain.com/crossdomain.xml. And the following is curious. The content is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain=www.mydomain.com />
<allow-access-from domain="mydomain.com" />
<allow-access-from domain="*.mydomain.com" />
</cross-domain-policy>
But when i visit http://mydomain.com/crossdomain.xml with IE 8 what i see is:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain=www.mydomain.com secure="true"/>
<allow-access-from domain="mydomain.com" secure="true"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*.mydomain.com" secure="true"/>
</cross-domain-policy>
But, when i visit that url with Firefox... correct, It doesn't adds the secure="true" attributes!! jajaja
Please, I need some advise to solve this problem.
Thank you very much.
When I visit the web page (www.mydomain.com) and the swf tries to load

I haven't found the solution yet, but i can give more info:
I have modified the crossdomain.xml file to set secure="false". This way, when you view it with Internet Explorer, you can see secure="false" instead of secure="true". But this didn't solve the problem.
I have read somewhere that avoiding Internet Explorer to cache files, could help. So, I have added the next line to the <header> section of the php page that contains the <object> tag that loads sthe swf file:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE">
This didn't solve the problem.
Regards.

Need help with Berkeley XML DB Performance

We need help with maximizing performance of our use of Berkeley XML DB. I am filling most of the 29 part question as listed by Oracle's BDB team.
Berkeley DB XML Performance Questionnaire
1. Describe the Performance area that you are measuring? What is the
current performance? What are your performance goals you hope to
achieve?
We are measuring the performance while loading a document during
web application startup. It is currently taking 10-12 seconds when
only one user is on the system. We are trying to do some testing to
get the load time when several users are on the system.
We would like the load time to be 5 seconds or less.
2. What Berkeley DB XML Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please specify?
dbxml 2.4.13. No special patches.
3. What Berkeley DB Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please Specify.
bdb 4.6.21. No special patches.
4. Processor name, speed and chipset?
Intel Xeon CPU 5150 2.66GHz
5. Operating System and Version?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Relase 4 Update 6
6. Disk Drive Type and speed?
Don't have that information
7. File System Type? (such as EXT2, NTFS, Reiser)
EXT3
8. Physical Memory Available?
4GB
9. Are you using Replication (HA) with Berkeley DB XML? If so, please
describe the network you are using, and the number of Replica’s.
No
10. Are you using a Remote Filesystem (NFS) ? If so, for which
Berkeley DB XML/DB files?
No
11. What type of mutexes do you have configured? Did you specify
–with-mutex=? Specify what you find inn your config.log, search
for db_cv_mutex?
None. Did not specify -with-mutex during bdb compilation
12. Which API are you using (C++, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, other) ?
Which compiler and version?
Java 1.5
13. If you are using an Application Server or Web Server, please
provide the name and version?
Oracle Appication Server 10.1.3.4.0
14. Please provide your exact Environment Configuration Flags (include
anything specified in you DB_CONFIG file)
Default.
15. Please provide your Container Configuration Flags?
final EnvironmentConfig envConf = new EnvironmentConfig();
envConf.setAllowCreate(true); // If the environment does not
// exist, create it.
envConf.setInitializeCache(true); // Turn on the shared memory
// region.
envConf.setInitializeLocking(true); // Turn on the locking subsystem.
envConf.setInitializeLogging(true); // Turn on the logging subsystem.
envConf.setTransactional(true); // Turn on the transactional
// subsystem.
envConf.setLockDetectMode(LockDetectMode.MINWRITE);
envConf.setThreaded(true);
envConf.setErrorStream(System.err);
envConf.setCacheSize(1024*1024*64);
envConf.setMaxLockers(2000);
envConf.setMaxLocks(2000);
envConf.setMaxLockObjects(2000);
envConf.setTxnMaxActive(200);
envConf.setTxnWriteNoSync(true);
envConf.setMaxMutexes(40000);
16. How many XML Containers do you have? For each one please specify:
One.
1. The Container Configuration Flags
          XmlContainerConfig xmlContainerConfig = new XmlContainerConfig();
          xmlContainerConfig.setTransactional(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setIndexNodes(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setReadUncommitted(true);
2. How many documents?
Everytime the user logs in, the current xml document is loaded from
a oracle database table and put it in the Berkeley XML DB.
The documents get deleted from XML DB when the Oracle application
server container is stopped.
The number of documents should start with zero initially and it
will grow with every login.
3. What type (node or wholedoc)?
Node
4. Please indicate the minimum, maximum and average size of
documents?
The minimum is about 2MB and the maximum could 20MB. The average
mostly about 5MB.
5. Are you using document data? If so please describe how?
We are using document data only to save changes made
to the application data in a web application. The final save goes
to the relational database. Berkeley XML DB is just used to store
temporary data since going to the relational database for each change
will cause severe performance issues.
17. Please describe the shape of one of your typical documents? Please
do this by sending us a skeleton XML document.
Due to the sensitive nature of the data, I can provide XML schema instead.
18. What is the rate of document insertion/update required or
expected? Are you doing partial node updates (via XmlModify) or
replacing the document?
The document is inserted during user login. Any change made to the application
data grid or other data components gets saved in Berkeley DB. We also have
an automatic save every two minutes. The final save from the application
gets saved in a relational database.
19. What is the query rate required/expected?
Users will not be entering data rapidly. There will be lot of think time
before the users enter/modify data in the web application. This is a pilot
project but when we go live with this application, we will expect 25 users
at the same time.
20. XQuery -- supply some sample queries
1. Please provide the Query Plan
2. Are you using DBXML_INDEX_NODES?
Yes.
3. Display the indices you have defined for the specific query.
     XmlIndexSpecification spec = container.getIndexSpecification();
     // ids
     spec.addIndex("", "id", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addIndex("", "idref", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // index to cover AttributeValue/Description
     spec.addIndex("", "Description", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_SUBSTRING, XmlValue.STRING);
     // cover AttributeValue/@value
     spec.addIndex("", "value", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // item attribute values
     spec.addIndex("", "type", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // default index
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // save the spec to the container
     XmlUpdateContext uc = xmlManager.createUpdateContext();
     container.setIndexSpecification(spec, uc);
4. If this is a large query, please consider sending a smaller
query (and query plan) that demonstrates the problem.
21. Are you running with Transactions? If so please provide any
transactions flags you specify with any API calls.
Yes. READ_UNCOMMITED in some and READ_COMMITTED in other transactions.
22. If your application is transactional, are your log files stored on
the same disk as your containers/databases?
Yes.
23. Do you use AUTO_COMMIT?
     No.
24. Please list any non-transactional operations performed?
No.
25. How many threads of control are running? How many threads in read
only mode? How many threads are updating?
We use Berkeley XML DB within the context of a struts web application.
Each user logged into the web application will be running a bdb transactoin
within the context of a struts action thread.
26. Please include a paragraph describing the performance measurements
you have made. Please specifically list any Berkeley DB operations
where the performance is currently insufficient.
We are clocking 10-12 seconds of loading a document from dbd when
five users are on the system.
getContainer().getDocument(documentName);
27. What performance level do you hope to achieve?
We would like to get less than 5 seconds when 25 users are on the system.
28. Please send us the output of the following db_stat utility commands
after your application has been running under "normal" load for some
period of time:
% db_stat -h database environment -c
% db_stat -h database environment -l
% db_stat -h database environment -m
% db_stat -h database environment -r
% db_stat -h database environment -t
(These commands require the db_stat utility access a shared database
environment. If your application has a private environment, please
remove the DB_PRIVATE flag used when the environment is created, so
you can obtain these measurements. If removing the DB_PRIVATE flag
is not possible, let us know and we can discuss alternatives with
you.)
If your application has periods of "good" and "bad" performance,
please run the above list of commands several times, during both
good and bad periods, and additionally specify the -Z flags (so
the output of each command isn't cumulative).
When possible, please run basic system performance reporting tools
during the time you are measuring the application's performance.
For example, on UNIX systems, the vmstat and iostat utilities are
good choices.
Will give this information soon.
29. Are there any other significant applications running on this
system? Are you using Berkeley DB outside of Berkeley DB XML?
Please describe the application?
No to the first two questions.
The web application is an online review of test questions. The users
login and then review the items one by one. The relational database
holds the data in xml. During application load, the application
retrieves the xml and then saves it to bdb. While the user
is making changes to the data in the application, it writes those
changes to bdb. Finally when the user hits the SAVE button, the data
gets saved to the relational database. We also have an automatic save
every two minues, which saves bdb xml data and saves it to relational
database.
Thanks,
Madhav

Could it be that you simply do not have set up indexes to support your query? If so, you could do some basic testing using the dbxml shell:
milu@colinux:~/xpg > dbxml -h ~/dbenv
Joined existing environment
dbxml> setverbose 7 2
dbxml> open tv.dbxml
dbxml> listIndexes
dbxml> query     { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }
dbxml> queryplan { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }Verbosity will make the engine display some (rather cryptic) information on index usage. I can't remember where the output is explained; my feeling is that "V(...)" means the index is being used (which is good), but that observation may not be accurate. Note that some details in the setVerbose command could differ, as I'm using 2.4.16 while you're using 2.4.13.
Also, take a look at the query plan. You can post it here and some people will be able to diagnose it.

Help with embedding XML / Flash Banner Rotator?!?

Hey guys, please help me; I'm having some trouble embedding this flash/xml banner rotator into this page, I can see that the file has been uploaded, however when I try to place it into the page, it just doesn't work. I even get error reports from IE, the code was all place by dreamweaver.

problem here :
Really, all of you thank you so much for your help, it is appreciated more than you know! Thank you!

Hi
All I am seeing is your actual page layout, no code.
But as you say it is an xml file (swf), it is more than likely that you have placed the swf and xml files in incompatible places. So without seeing your code, all I can suggest is to check the file placement of all items.
PZ
Can see the code now, for some reason it was rendering the code, not displaying it until I refreshed the page.

Need help with simple XML validation

I am new to Spry and need some help creating a simple
validation. There is a form field which must not contain a value
already in the database. I have a script which accepts a parameter
and returns a boolean result. Here is the XML:
<samples>
<sample>
<ISFOUND>0</ISFOUND>
</sample>
</samples>
1. How do I call this script when the form field changes and
pass the form value as the parameter?
2. How do I check the returned value in the XML and throw an
error if true?
I appreciate any help with this. Please let me know if there
is a better way to achieve the same result.
Thanks,
Rich

I enabled the call to the XML response. However, I am having
trouble identifying when the call is complete so I can parse the
result. How do I run my check after the data load and display the
proper message?

Problem with loading XML file from directory.

Hello everyone.
*1)* I have directory defined by DBA. I have read, write privileges. I can read file from this directory using UTL_FILE, I can create file in this directory using UTL_FILE. I tried many times and it does not seem to be any problems.
*2)* I have very simple XML table (with just one column of xmltype). I can insert into this column using:
insert into temp_xml values (
Xmltype ('<something></something>')
*3)* When executing
insert into temp_xml values (
Xmltype (
bfilename('XML_LOCATION', 'sample.xml'),
nls_charset_id('AL16UTF8')
I'm receiving an error:
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-22288: file or LOB operation FILEOPEN failed
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_LOB", line 523
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLTYPE", line 287
ORA-06512: at line 1
22288. 00000 - "file or LOB operation %s failed\n%s"
*Cause:    The operation attempted on the file or LOB failed.
*Action:   See the next error message in the error stack for more detailed
information. Also, verify that the file or LOB exists and that
the necessary privileges are set for the specified operation. If
the error still persists, report the error to the DBA.
*4)* Previously I was receiving more descriptive errors like permission denied, file not exists etc. This time there is no clear description apart from "file or LOB operation %s failed\n%s". I'm sure I can access this file in this directory (I used UTL_FILE to dbms_output the content).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Marcin Jankowski

Hi Marcin,
Welcome to the forums.
One very important thing with Oracle XML : please always give your database version, all four digits (e.g. 10.2.0.4).
Does the directory resides on the same machine as the database? Which OS?
Does any of the following work ?
DECLARE
   v_lob   CLOB;
   v_file BFILE;
BEGIN
   v_file := BFILENAME('XML_LOCATION','sample.xml');
   DBMS_LOB.createtemporary(v_lob, true);
   DBMS_LOB.fileopen(v_file);
   DBMS_LOB.loadfromfile(v_lob, v_file, DBMS_LOB.getlength(v_file));
   INSERT INTO temp_xml VALUES( xmltype(v_lob) );
   DBMS_LOB.fileclose(v_file);
   DBMS_LOB.freetemporary(v_lob);
END;
DECLARE
   v_lob   CLOB;
BEGIN
   v_lob := DBMS_XSLPROCESSOR.read2clob('XML_LOCATION', 'sample.xml', nls_charset_id('AL16UTF8'));
   INSERT INTO temp_xml VALUES( xmltype(v_lob) );
END;

Need help with a xml photo gallery

First, hello to everyone. My name is Tudor , i'm from Romania and i have a flash project which implies building an XML driven scrolling photo galery. Very sorry if my english will slip in some phrases. Well , the question for which i must get an answer is: I already built the gallery, everything works ok.... but ... when i want to make some changes when the pictures load .... well here is the problem. I will print the code and briefly explain and ask at the end....

PLEASE ... i'm burning my brain here for half a day here .......... THANKS in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are using a "for" loop to do the loading, it can process thru the entire set of loops before the first image is loaded. If you want to have control over the loading you should load things sequencially.
So instead of using a for loop, build a pseudo loop using an array of the files to load, a counter variable, a loading function, and a loadComplete function. Have the loading function load just one image using the counter variable to identify which image in the array to load. Have the loadComplete function process the one image that was just kloaded, increment the counter, and call the loading function if the counter value does not equal the length of the array.

Begging for help with podcast xml file

Hey All,
I have a podcast on iTunes. I am hosting the xml file and podcast mp3s on a friends server so Im not using any service. Everything is working and Ive sucessfully added 4 podcasts so far, and it shows up correctly in iTunes on my PC.
However my podcasts do not showup correct in the iTunes store website, or on idevices. Meaning, I number my shows 001_"NAME" 002_"NAME" etc. Yet in the iTunes store they show up out of order. So my last show is not at the top its at the bottom, and they are all mixed up (like 002, 001, 004, 003 instead of 4,3,2,1) Also the publish date is the same on two of them (and not what i have in the xml file) and doesnt show up at all on the other two. I assume this is a problem with the xml file, yet I dont see any problems with it. But it seems odd that it all works correctly in the actual iTunes program. Ive tried different code, but im very much a noob at it, and everything i find online is from 5 - 10 years ago or wants you to host your podcasts with their site and I dont need that.
Here is the link to the show on the iTunes website so you can see what i mean: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/your-reality-recap/id501295325
If anybody can, would you mind checking out the code in my xml file and letting me know if you see anything thats causing this issue?
I zipped the xml file and put it here: http://www.ericcurto.com/podcast/YRR.zip
I would be truly greatfuly for any help with this. Ive been trying to fix this for days and dont know what else to do.
Thanks!
Eric

Your feed is at http://www.ericcurto.com/podcast/YourRealityRecap.xml (please always post the feed URL, not its contents or a copy).
I don't see the issues you mention. The order in the Store and when subscribing is what I would expect:
The order in the Store depends on clicking the header to the column: the default is the first one. Some of the dates are a day out - this is quite commmon and is probably a time zone issue (it may be different where you are - I'm in the UK). I don't know why you are seeing a garbled order unless you've clicked on one of the other columns in the Store.

Please help with Load Variables / ASP

Hello,
I am using Load Variables to retreive a variable from an ASP
page, (which uses a response.write) to output the variable
getfile.onRelease = function()
myData = new LoadVars();
myData.onLoad = function(success){
if(success) {
getfile_txt.text = this.strString;
} else {
getfile_txt.text = "error";
myData.load("sendFile.asp");
stop();
the problem is that the output says "undefined", but when I
access the .asp page through my web browser I get the expected
result of the variable which is "Test1.Doc"
if any1 can help with this, i would be massivley thankful,
thanks.

p.s strString is the variable that I am trying to pass from
the ASP page.
