Importing XML Into Flash Via ASP...
Dear all,
I have successfully imported/loaded info from an XML file into my flash file. I learnt this from a course I went on and got it work for for what I wanted.

However, my IT dept have created an ASP file that generates the XML, and want me to get info via the ASP file..... in order that the info can be generated directly from the SQL server.

I've looked at XML.docTypeDecl / onLoad(success) / parseXML / sendAndLoad - in the book - I don't understand it all enough - but donot (cannot!!) give up on it - there must be a way! (if only I understood it all more.)

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Or perhaps has code examples that I look at to help understand a method?
Many thanx.
Max

Importing Flash
When I import an SWF from flash it doesn't just import the SWF. Is there a way to just import the SWF so I can put it on the stage?

Importing Into Flash
Hi-

I was wondering if it is possible to import a word doc or spreadsheet into Flash as a symbol? I recently made a course about finances, and I had to create the statements within Flash myself, which added on a lot of time to the project.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks!

Importing AVI Into Flash 5
Im a flash noob so I assume this is the appropriate forum.

I want to import sequences of avi into my flash movie. I currently use Flash 5, which I realize may be out dated so hopefully I can still do it. If I need some additional software, I would like some recommendations if you can. Free is good, but whatever is good Though Id like to be able to do this without addition software. Thanks!

[CS3] Importing An Swf Into Flash
I have an SWF file that I got from using an swftool to convert a pdf into an swf. This problem may be specific to that but anyway, the SWF looks fine on its own in the flash player but when I try to import it into flash it results in the creation of many many graphics and bitmaps as well as one movieclip file. The movieclip file appears to be the swf file I imported however all of the text looks like it disappeared. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I thought of converting the swf to an avi and importing that but then I lose out on the clarity of a lot of the original text.

Importing Swf In Flash
hey guys,

i'm pretty new in actionscript because i normally work as a designer. But i got this assignment now where i need some actionscript for.

i'll explain what my problem is.
I have a script that uses a movieclip to get information. the information is placed in more frames to have more than one page. The script automatically recognises the amount of frames.

Now i would like to import the content of this movieclip from an swf file. It does import the file bud it is just one single frame. is it possible to force the imported swf to spread over multiple frames like when you import an swf into flash using the File>import function?

Importing CSS Into Flash - Is It Possible
This i probably a noob question...

Is there a way to load an external CSS file and apply it to a dynamic text zone.

For example, I have HTML text selected and I have a link in the text zone,
is it possible to import an external CSS file so I can apply the following code:


PHP Code:



a{
      color: #0000ff;
      text-decoration: none;
}
a:hover{
      color: #ff0000;
      text-decoration: underline;





Anyone??

Importing PSD's Into Flash
I'm using Flash 8, and have just started importing PSDs into Flash. I actually found the import PSDs feature in CS3, and discovered that you can import PSDs to Flash 8 as well.

The problem is, there is a color shift-the PSDs imported into Flash appear lighter than they do in PS, or than a JPEG of the same image appears when imported into Flash. I have noticed the same problem with PNG's as well. They also appear lighter than a JPG of exactly the same image when brought into Flash....

Does anyone know of any fix for this? Is it something to do with color-profiles in PhotoShop (of which I know little about)?

Thanks!

Importing FLV's Into Flash
Hi, I wanted to know how I can import an FLV into my running swf file. I want to create a player that will play an FLV, and I wanted to know a couple of things.

What requirements do I have for my server?
Would flash MX be able to create a swf that can load an FLV into an MC within it?

The point is that I want to see if I do not have to do it manually, (Import it into the FLA file, then export SWF to be played later, etc, etc.) I would really appreciate any help!!

Taking A Flash File From Online And Importing It To Flash
Does anyone know how to take a Flash file from a site online, save it to your desktop, then open up the file in Flash?

The idea is similar to viewing source on any HTML document, but I'd like the source on the Flash file instead.

I am using a Mac, so I'd need to know if it's possible on that platform.

Example would be any site using Flash online, such as http://disney.go.com/disneyvideos/an...c/index2.html.

Thanks.

Importing JPEGs In Flash 4... Help Please?
Hi, can anyone tell me how I can import a beautifully compressed jpeg without it being destroyed by Flash 4? What I mean is that I have made some jpegs which are compressed nicely down to about 10k, and when I import them and export the movie, the movie becomes ridiculously big. After checking the movie size report, I see that my jpegs are actually taking up 35 to 40k each in the movie. What can I do to keep them as they were originally?

Importing Swish Into Flash 5
I am trying to import a .swf file generated in swish (a text animation) into a Flash movie. However, when I import the file instead of showing the movie clip in the library as a symbol in its own right, it shows all the separate symbols making up the swish movie. This means I can't drag an instance of the clip onto the stage.

This should be so straightforward - where am I going wrong???

Importing Flash Into Director
We have something built in flash, a sort of navigation made out of a desk with stuff on it. On click the user would go to whatever page ie. portfolio. So heres the question. Can the flash file be imported into director and keep the actionscripts for navigation or would it be better to just rebuild the desk in director.

Importing SWF's Into A Flash File
Hello,

I'm still very green with flash so I apologize if this is an obvious one. I'm trying out swift and swish. Once I create SWF files, how do I import them into my flash files. I have a preloader working so I'd like to make sure they are loaded into the flash file.

So far, my attempts at importing them keeps turning them into static graphics instead of movies.

Thanks for the assist!

I have seen some beautiful applications of the Flash program, and I'm curious as to what program I could use to import my drawings or sketches, into Flash for use in an animated sequence.

Also, what program or programs, will help me maximize the use of my traditional 2D animation skills, in such a fantastic program that is Flash 5?

Any info you give to me would be so very helpful!

Flash MX Importing Problem
i m new in Flash MX. i encountered a problem of importing AI format files into it. Everytime i intended to import my AI 10 file, the message from Flash MX showed, "One or more files were not imported, because there were problems reading them."

And if i used the method of copying objects in Illusttrator and pasting in Flash MX, it said "The EPS file was not completely understood. Part or all of the file may be missing. Flash only supports importing the Adobe Illustrator EPS file format. Most drawing tools, including Micromeia Freehand, import or export this format."

i heard that Flash MX is not supported with Illustartor 9 or higher file format, is that true?
