Load Movie/ photo gallery

I have a load movie button working correctly, and I have a
photo gallery with 'back' and f'orward' buttons working correctly -
but when I try to load the photo gallery swf file, onto my page
with the load movie button, I get an endless NaN error pop up on
screen.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to where I'm going
wrong?
Many thanks.

NaN (Not A Number)
The chances are that it’s a string being passed back to
something that’s expecting a number.

How to load external photo gallery in swf file

hello!
i've been using flash catalyst beta to create a simple 100% flash portfolio site. you can view the test here: http://remgriff.110mb.com/
my problem is that i want to link a button from the portfolio page to an external swf file (or html, both are ok) and i cannot do that in flash catalyst (probably because it's in beta).
how can i achieve that? can it be done so the external swf opens in the portfolio page?
please help.

Heya,
I believe you can embed the .swf file using flex code in flex builder. I just did a quick google search and came up with a few articles. I don't think there is a way to do this in Catalyst yet, but please correct me if I am wrong.
I am also building my portfolio in Catalyst as a little project and although there are some bugs I am really enjoying the Beta
Hope this helps!

How to have more than one Bridge Web Photo Gallery in a site

I'm having a problem inserting more than one bridge web photo gallery in my site. I have thumbnails of different jobs and when clicked I want a new page to load with all the images of that job. I have one thumbnail linked to one of the galleries and I made another gallery and can't find the code to change to link it to the new html gallery. When the page loads it shows the first gallery I made instead of the new gallery.
Example:
I made a gallery of a deck job and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it brings up the deck.html photo gallery made in bridge cs4. Good!
Now, I made a gallery of an outdoor fireplace and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it should load the photo gallery of the outdoor fireplace. It loads the gallery of the deck instead.
I understand that the code needs to be changed to link to the new files. I changed the "resource" folder for the outdoor fireplace to "resource2" and changed the code script src="resources" to script src="resources2" and it did not work
I suspect that I need to change the code that points to group.xml and rename the new photo gallery group.xml to group2.xml so it will find the one in my resources2 folder, but I can't find the code anywhere.
Any help would be great. Also, if there is a better way of doing this let me know?
Thanks

Maybe I can explain this better....
the group.xml file has the information for what images to load. When previewing the outdoor fireplace web gallery "of.html" it loads the "deck.html" web gallery. I believe this is because in one of the files it is requesting the info from the group.xml file from the resourses folder. I need to find where the code is that directs it to the group.xml and change it to group2.xml and rename that group.xml file for "of.html" to group2.xml in the resourses2 folder.

Loading a Photoshop Web Photo Gallery into a Flash Movieclip

I created a photogallery in Photoshop, but I want it to load
into a movieclip in Flash and not load into it's own page. When I
use the loadMovie() command I get an error opening the
galleryconfig.xml file. When I move that file into the main web
page file, I then get an error opening the photos.xml file. So I
move that too into the main web page file. And then I get the error
opening thumbnails/.jpg. Any ideas? I'm pretty sure it's a pathing
issue since the gallery works fine on it's own. But I'm not sure
what I need to change to get it to work when it imports. Any help
would be much appreciated.
thanks,
liz

Hi,
I am not sure that this will help, as i never tried to do
what you are doing, But, i think your best option woul be to create
the pic/gallery in flash and i would think that would solve your
problem.
In Flash 8 there is a premade photo Gallery all you need to
do is to add the pics.
Otherwise, you can create yours in flah!!
Hope this helps!

Problem loading images in adobe bridge html photo gallery

Can someone please, please help me!? I can not figure out why the images will not load in my adobe bridge html photo gallery cs5. I am not getting any error messages in Firefox and just the x in internet explorer.
Here is the link to the gallery page on the site: http://www.irishwetlands.ie/Gallery.html
I created the gallery as a html file for compatibality reasons due to accesbility issues with flash, and followed the general insturctions. The gallery folder is called wetlandsgallery and it is loading everything style-wise except the images themselves.
I then made the gallery within an iframe so it would be more similar to the other pages on the site and contain the menu bar - but no change on the lack of images!
Having looked around online I think it might be something to do with the bin folder?? Does this have some secutity somewhere thats protecting the images? I am also unsure if I filled in the FTP info correctly when creating the site as I was getting the message "could not connect to FTP server" so I had to copy over the file from my hard drive to the server provider files. All the tutortials say to load your gallery and no mention of what to do when it won't connect to FTP server.
If you could also tell me how to edit the image sizes that would be a great help too, as any size changes I make to either the bin/large or bin/thumnail images makes no difference in what appears in the preview?
Help would be very greatfully appreciated as I am pulling my hair out trying to figure it out with no sucess and a possible bald patch!
Thanks in advance,
Áine

Hello Áine,
1. Is it really necessary to comment out this part in your source code?

Using your source code without these things I could see some of your images.
2. Looking to your website with my IE8 into image 7 (e.g.) I saw this:
what means there is a reference to a html file, not to an image. ???
3. Here it becomes interesting (completely contrary to my point 2.), looking for your path:
http://www.irishwetlands.ie/images/GalleryImages/Gallery1_Selection%20of%20IRWC%20members% 20at%20the%20Gearagh.jpg
I can see this image in my IE8 (some people in front of a "wetland". But still I've to assume (as Murray already did too), that there is something wrong with your upload and the pathes.
4. Allow me to make one brief point, we talked about here on several occasions: please don't use spaces in image, folders or filenames. I'll quote Murray: In general, URL encoding spaces does not lead to problems. ... Whatever the details are, though, using spaces in filenames or paths is a bad practice which WILL lead to problems.
5. What concerns the image sizes, maybe later (I didn't understand your question correctly I fear). There is still my language barrier, I'm sorry.

Photo gallery (using Loader with no xml)

Hello, currently I'm doing a photo gallery.
Inside .fla, only 2 frame:
1st is for my 3 category: A, B, C.
stop();
A.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
B.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
C.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickSection);
function clickSection(evt:MouseEvent):void{
    gotoAndStop("gallery");
    loader.unload();
    req = new URLRequest(evt.target.name + "_gallery.swf");
    createLoader();
    loader.load(req);
2nd is to load the swf externally.
var req:URLRequest
var container_mc:MovieClip
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
req = new URLRequest("A.swf");
createLoader();
loader.load(req);
function createLoader():void{
    loader = new Loader();
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, initListener);
    loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, fileLoaded);
function initListener(evt:Event):void{
    addChildAt(loader,1);
function fileLoaded(evt:Event):void{
    container_mc = MovieClip(loader.content);
debug (click the button and it pop this):
RangeError: Error #2006: The supplied index is out of bounds.
    at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/addChildAt()
    at main_gallery_fla::MainTimeline/initListener()
any ideas why?

Yes, two... the first being the most important...
1) Learn how to use the help documentation (and Google). If you look up addChild in the help documents it will define what you need to know to be able to use it. The same goes for any other element of the AS3 language. The help documents are a primary tool in learning/using AS3 (or any language).
2) use: addChild(loader);
I couldn't really follow your description in the first posting, but I would almost expect a flurry of other errors unless I am misinterpretting what you described. Very often errors get reported in sequence, not all at once.

XML Photo Gallery - Loader won't load :(

Hi,
I'm trying to make an XML Photo Gallery type thing. For each
'Product' it creates a new instance of a MovieClip from the
library, 'XmlItem' which contains a Loader Component and Dynamic
Text.
The Product Title goes into the Dynamic Text perfectly. The
problem is with the Loader Component. It simply REFUSES to load the
images. There's an exception. If I deliberately cause a syntax
error in the Loader Component's code, then the pictures load! What
the hell?
Oh, also I'm having trouble with the placement of the XmlItem
instances... For each of them, what position is _x relative to?
Thanks very much in advance for any help,
Tim.
Code:

my_ldr must exist on all frames or, if you navigate to a frame where it doesn't exist, you must create another loader with the "new" constructor. in the later situation, you'll need to (re)define your button actions too because the new loader will need to before referenced in the button listener functions. even if you use the same name, my_ldr, you'll probably need to re-define your buttons.

Web Photo Gallery - load into a frame?

Hi,
I have created a Web Photo Gallery using Photoshop CS2 and its URL works fine on its own.
When I try and load it into a frame, none of the links or the the slide show feature work anymore.
Does this meen that a Gallery cannot be loaded into a frame? Does it have to be standalone?
Thanks if you can help! :)

The best that I've been able to achieve is to load Twitter widgets into DPS's In-App browser. Directing a plain Twitter feed into a web overlay on an InDesign page makes it look pants.

Photo gallery loader?

Okay so I found an online tutorial for a photo gallery which
is great cause I'm very new to Flash.
Tutorial is visible here
http://www.layoutgalaxy.com/html/htmnewletter41-page1.htm
Anyway I get all the way to the end and the guy says a loader
is needed if this is gonna be posted online. A loader? What? I
don't have the first clue what a loader is or how I would implement
it into my coding. So if anyone can point me in the right direction
it'sd be greatly appreciated cause I haven't found anything that I
understand about a loader.
Thanks in advance.

This is a Flash 5 article on th web site that you mention.
There are much better tutorials on Adobe.com for photo gallery type
applications. Such as :

When I tap a photo in my iPhone photo gallery, the photo appears but there is always a "this movie format not supported" alert and then the alert goes away and the photo appears. These are photos I've taken with the iPhone and aren't even movies.

It's very odd. I take photos with my iPhone and then later go to view the photos in the Photo Gallery on my iPhone. The photos to appear, but I keep getting "this movie format not supported" alerts, even though I am looking at photos taken by my iPhone. The alert appears briefly just after the photo appears and then the alert goes away and I can see the photo. They are just still photos and not movies. Why wouldn't the iPhone recognize the format of photos it is taking?

That thread helped for a time. But now it seems as though my computer is back to slow again. But, some of the jargon is over my head as well. Not sure I knew quoite everything they were talking about. But thanks a lot for that, it helped I probably just need to reread it and follow the instructions again. Thanks so much.

Movie file on photo gallery page

I added a small movie file to the bottom on a photo gallery page. That works out fine, but then the same movie displays at the bottom of each page when individual images are displayed, which I don't want.
I know that it's all one page under the hood... but is there any way to add a movie so it just shows under the gallery thumbnails?

I would happily have a thumbnail pointing to the movie file but if I drag the movie into the gallery section it just lands on top of all the thumbnails.
Drag the movie from the mediabrowser or desktop into the photogrid.

That's not possible with the current packager.
I hope the next version will support that.

How do I move a saved .pdf photo in adobe/acrobat to my photo gallery?

I currently downloaded Adobe Reader to so that I could view and download .pdf documents and photos. I also set up the acrobat program so that I could save the .pdf photos onto it. There is currently a picture I have that is a .pdf file that is saved in acrobat. However, I would like to know if there is a way I can save that to my photo gallery or photo stream so that I can then make it my wallpaper. I'm not even sure if this is possible, but any help would be appreciated!

Need help with preloader for photo gallery

Hello!
I know I might be the 99999999991 to say that but I will say
it...I'm a begginer with flash and I have a problem...:-)
I'm building a photo gallery which loads jpg photos inside a
loader component by using MovieClipLoader.
Everything works just great but my only problem is that I
can't scale the content (the jpg's) to the size of the loader
component.
I tryed everything but the photos are loading bigger then the
loader, and I wnat to have the photos bigger then the loader so
that I could have good quality on any resolution. Here's the
actionscript I used, if it's necessary:
//------------------MovieClip Loader---------\\
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
var myListener:Object = new Object ();
mcLoader.addListener(myListener)
myListener.onLoadProgress = function
(target_mc,bytesLoaded,bytesTotal) {
extLoader_mc._visible = true;
var pctLoaded = Math.round(bytesLoaded/bytesTotal*100);
extLoader_mc.extLoaderBar_mc._xscale = pctLoaded;
extLoader_mc.extLoadinBarLines_mc._xscale = pctLoaded-1;
extLoader_mc.pct_txt.text = pctLoaded;
if (bytesLoaded >= bytesTotal) {
extLoader_mc._visible = false;
mcLoader.loadClip("pics/zernike1.jpg",picViewer_mc.picLoader);
T
Text
Text

first of all, you can't directly resize the bitmaps, you have to resize the movieclip above it. so if needed, create an empty movieclip inside another wrapper movie clip and resize the wrapper.
then i noticed you don't have onLoadInit in your listener
this method:
myLIstener.onLoadInit=function(mc:MovieClip){
will execute commands after the content is loaded. so you will have to resize your content after it's been loaded. you can't just resize something that you loaded above in your code, you have to wait until it's fully loaded
anyways since you siad you are beginner i will list some useful tip for this job (i don't know if you already know them):
this -refers to current movie clip
this._parent -refers to parent movie cilp
width and height of movie clips are controlled by _width and _height properties, not width height
