Load image and video dynamically...

Question

Hello. Can I make a "Browse..." button in a "Settings" slide (at the beginning of the presentation), to point my presentation to a certain photo (one photo) and video (one video) files from a HDD? I want to use those files in one of next slides... Thank You!

Answer 1

I was able to create a file with 2 buttons that will upload image and video separatly and it works fine.
But what I want is there is a 3rd button for submitting the selected files, right now the files are uploaded as soon they are selected and the browse window is closed..
How do I get to upload the selected files only when the SUBMIT button is clicked. Please help.
var imageTypes:FileFilter = new FileFilter("Images (*.jpg, *.jpeg, *.gif, *.png)", "*.jpg; *.jpeg; *.gif; *.png");
// Assign the document types filter
var videoTypes:FileFilter = new FileFilter("Flash Movies (*.avi, *.flv, *.mov, *.swf)", "*.swf");
// Add both filter types to an array
var imgTypes:Array = new Array(imageTypes);
var vdoTypes:Array = new Array(videoTypes);
upload_image.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, browseImage);
upload_vdo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, browseVdo);
var fileRefList:FileReferenceList = new FileReferenceList();
function browseImage(event:MouseEvent):void {
    fileRefList.browse(imgTypes);
    fileRefList.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, selectHandler);
function browseVdo(event:MouseEvent):void {
    fileRefList.browse(vdoTypes);
    fileRefList.addEventListener(Event.SELECT, selectHandler);
function selectHandler(event:Event):void
    var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("fileUploadScript.php");
    var file:FileReference;
    var files:FileReferenceList = FileReferenceList(event.target);
    var selectedFileArray:Array = files.fileList;
    for (var i:uint = 0; i < selectedFileArray.length; i++)
        file = FileReference(selectedFileArray[i]);
        file.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
        try
            file.upload(request);
        catch (error:Error)
            trace("Unable to upload files.");
function completeHandler(event:Event):void
    trace("uploaded");
