Image With News Scroller
Does anyone know of a tutorial that can create an image - news gallery like the one used here: http://www.govolsxtra.com/
I am sure they bought the one they are using, I would like to create one for my own site, and see many types of image gallery's,
but none display with text below the image that is link-able.
Many thanks - Sky

News Scroller
OK, I've been racking my brain her with some actionscript.
http://www.gordonpape.com/flashhelpme.zip
contains the following:
Preview.cfm
test.cfm
test.fla
testa.swf
Here's my problem, I hope someone can help me
data is grabbed from preview.cfm
The counter is set to 1
test.cfm is coded to show the flas file and ( for troubleshooting) a copy of the data from preview.cfm which is:
vtext1=6 STEP TO $1 MILLION
cntr1=1
no_of_feeds1=3
vtext2=HEAD START
cntr2=2
no_of_feeds2=3
vtext3=Retiring Wealthy in the 21st Century
cntr3=3
no_of_feeds3=3
no_of_feeds=3
(formated this way only for visual appearances)
the scroller starts with a blank run, then shows vtext2 then vtext3, then vtext1 and repeats.
However this is only when the if statement in the actionscript has a hardcoded "if count == 3 then repeat" process. If I use "if count == no_of_feeds" , the file shows vtext2, vtext3 then continuous blanks.
Please help...this is driving me CRAZY!!!

Hello.
are there any tutorials on creating a kind of news scroller. I'd prefer to get the news from a text file or DB. I would use coldfusion but the host i'm using doesn't support it. Any ideas or tutorials?

News Scroller Help...
Hi All,
I'm using a JAVA (eugh - swear word!) scroller on one of my sites, see: http://www.lymmhigh.co.uk/objects/6.cfm
It reads the news from an XML file like this:
<news>
<header>Computers For Schools</header>
<body>Tesco is giving away computers for Schools</body>
<link>http://www.lymmhigh.co.uk/</link>
</news>
<news>
<header>U15s Stoneyhurst Report</header>
<body>see here</body>
<link>http://www.lymmhigh.co.uk/test</link>
</news>
Now here's the big question, HOW do I convert this java beast into a sexy flash scroller?
I want it to use the same scrolling technique and allow several news items to scroll through it.
Any help greatly appeciated
James.

News Scroller
Ive seen the Kirpua news ticker but i was wondering is there one where you can use it vertically.
For example in the box below the text news moves upwards, and once you hover over it stops so you can read it

Help With My News Scroller
Hey -
I have a news scroller which is working apart from one thing:
The end of the text string does not quite scroll completely off the screen - it disappears into thin air near the end and THEN starts scrolling from right to left again.
How do I make it so the text scrolls completely off the screen before returning?
Code:
var loadText:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("news.txt");
loadText.onData = function(src:String):Void {
if (src != undefined) {
news_txt.htmlText = " "+src;
scrollText();
} else {
news_txt.htmlText = "could not load data";
}
};
function scrollText() {
onEnterFrame = function () {
if (news_txt.hscroll<news_txt.maxhscroll) {
news_txt.hscroll+=30;
} else {
news_txt.hscroll = 1;
}
};
}

I'm using Flash 5.
I'd like a part of a flash page to have a "news" section, with a box that scrolls news automatically, from bottom to top.
I'd also like it if i could import the changing text from an html file.
any suggestions?
all the scrollers i've seen in flash require the up and down buttons.

Problem With News Scroller
are there "safe fonts"? I have a news scroller with a mask, and a movieclip with the text in it. The text is the same color as the mask, so when it scrolls by the mask it is shown clearly. But no matter what background color I choose for the rest of the scene, you can still see the text ghosted moving up the screen, below the mask. How can I make it so you ONLY see the text where the mask is?
Also, this is my first attempt at a scoller (I'm a newbie) and right not I'm typing text into the movieclip, however I would like to make this dynamic and load the text from a txt file. can someone point me in the right direction?
thanks very much!

RSS News Scroller / XML - Help Needed
Hi everyone,
I've got hold of this very funky scroller, which I've put up as an example here:
www.mattblank.com/test
The problem is, it only reads from the XML that I've uploaded called news_feed.xml (this template XML file came with the scroller www.mattblank.com/test/news_feed.xml).
What I would prefer though is if it could instead read from the file I've created and uploaded called rss.xml (www.mattblank.com/test/rss.xml), which I think is more RSS friendly, however the flash file can't read it for some reason, it will just show the title and description of the rss.xml file instead of all the items.
I will be eternally grateful if someone could help me on this one. I've attached all necessary files (you normally have to preview it live to see any content).
I don't want the flash file to read the links from rss.xml, but I want them to stay in the XML incase people want to use it as an RSS.
I hope this isn't too confusing
Please help me!
Many thanks,
Matt Blank
P.S. All files needed are in the attached zip file.

Add Images To A News Scroller

I have a little dynamic news scroller that
reads from and external text file. The scrolling of the text is done through a very-very long motion tween. Everything works pretty well except the tween is slowing down the rest of my site big time!

Creating A Simple News Box With Scroller
I've been searching the forums and found some related posts but still can't seem to get this working. What I am trying to do is have a text box that displays news and I want the news to be able to be updated from a text file. I would like the box to have a scroller.
I have found this tutorial http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/In...-532/index.php
But it appears he was using a different version of flash because everything isn't the exact same. I am using Flash MX Professional 2004.
I got to page 6 in his profile and it says to test the movie and make sure the text is appearing, which it is not. I haven't tried to move on to creating the scroll bars until I can get this to work.
I have a file called scrolltext.txt and the text in the file is: scrolltext=11/2005 news test
I am using the text box "TextInput" from the Compenents menu. This type of text box doesn't give the options for selecting "wordwrap" and "multiline". I see how to input the code for it "my_txt.wordWrap = true;" but I get the error "Statement must appear within on/onClipEvent handler" I'm not sure which handler to use.
I figured out the basic differences in that tutorial like to load my text file so I can use it throughout my movie I need "loadVariablesNum("scrolltext.txt",0);"
and the go to and play is just "gotoAndPlay("load");"
If anyone has any suggestions please let me know or if you can recommend a different tutorial that would be nice. Let me know if you need more information, I understand what I wote may be a little choppy. Basically I just did exactly what that tutorial said, but stopped at the point where it says to test and make sure my text is showing up.
Thank you

[F8] Problem With External Swf And News Scroller
Hi,
I have downloaded a news scroller that uses a txt file to add news.
It has a dynamic text field called "newsText" and var name "news".
In the first frame it has this code:
loadVariablesNum("news.txt", 0);
newsText.autosize = "left";
var maxheight = newsText._height;
var maxpos = 0-maxheight;
gotoAndStop(2);
In the second frame this:
if (newsText._y < maxpos){
newsText._y = 110;
}
newsText._y -= 1;
gotoAndPlay(2);
I have tried tu put this swf news scroller file into another swf file using Loader component. But it doesn't show any letters.
I have all 3 files (scroller.swf, news.txt, main.swf) in one folder.
Can somebody help me to solve this problem?
Here I put my files.

Anyone Seen Or Made An HTML News Scroller In Flash?
Hey there, I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to make a scrolling news ticker (horizontal) in Flash that pulls in from a text file and displays HTML still.
So far I can only figure out how to make a scroller that parses the text string letter by letter and then scrolls them, but this won't allow for links or HTML formatting. Anyone ever seen this done, or have done it yourself?
Thanks much!

Several folks were asking how to make a news display/scroller thingie similar to the one by group 94 seen here: http://www.carldekeyzer.com/
Did some playing around and came up with this one: http://www.onebyonedesign.com/flash/newsScroller/
There is no .fla available, but if you look to the bottom right of the news display box there are links to the full script (with comments galore) and the xml which feeds it..
hope it might help someone out..

Inserting File (News Reader) / Vertical Text Scroller
Hi,
after trying to look for a external file vertical text scroller..., i decided to build my own. I do not have much flash-scripting know how (or flash as a matter of fact) but so far I have been able to read a text file and insert into flash.
however, the text is not properly formatted (as some of it does not appear). Also, in addition I need some help in scrolling the text that is read from file to auto scroll repeatedly...
Code:
loadText = new LoadVars();
loadText.load("data.txt");
loadText.onLoad = function() {
name.text = this.name;
};
i was thinking of looking for EOS for each line then display that; then wait couple of seconds and read the next line...however i do not know how i will do that in flashscript...

Image+text Scroller, Form Scroller, And Loading External Text Files - Urgent
Hi everybody!
Does anybody know how to do the following things in Flash MX?
1.Make a scroller with text + images in it;
2.Make a scroller with text + a form in it;
3.I followed the tutorial entitled "Scrolling Dynamically Loaded Text", but the text that I tried to load has over 160 lines, and I can only scroll down to about half way of the total lines. Why is that?
4.I also tried to load xml files using the code <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> on the first line of each xml file, but the ', &, and " " don't work.
Can anybody help me, please? This is urgent!
Thanks in advance!

Targeting Thumb Nail Image In Image Scroller To Full Size In Middle Of Screen
Hi people....
Thanks for your time....I`m basically looking for ideas on how to do the following. Most of the work is done all I need I hope is a little actionscript... ( I hope)
I`m building a scrolling picture gallery for someone where they want the thumbnail images, once clicked upon to scale very large in the middle of the screen on top of the image scroller. When the image is clicked it zooms back down to where it was clicked upon in the scolling image gallery. The site that best describes this is http://www.chris-bailey.com.
I can do the scrolling image gallery (well, thanks to other friendly flask kit people) and get the user to click the image buttons to load a movie above the scrolling gallery but its targeting the moving images in the scroller to target to the middle of the screen and stop moving and then go back down to the moving scroller.... All the images in the scroller are seperate movies that are obviously easy to scale but I need to turn off the scrolling action when they start scaling into the main movieso they remain still to view. Any ideas please? Using Flash MX.
Thanks.... Angus
