hello -
ive managed to create a loop that loads some xml and images,
but im struggling with creating an 'onLoad' type event for this line of code
--- R1item.image_holder.loadMovie(R2photoURL[j]);
so when then the R2photoURL[j] is finally loaded an event will occur.
could someone point me in the right direction
what should i be using?
thanks,
anton.

the movieclip onLoad() method only executes for movieclips that are in your
library and placed on-stage in the authoring environment.
it does not execute when a file is loaded into a target movieclip.
either use the onLoadInit() method of the moviecliploader class'es listener
object or create a loop and check the getBytesLoaded() and getBytesTotal()
methods of the target movieclip. |

hello --- thanks!
ive been trying to implement the onLoadInit using the help files -
see attached code:
but im obviusly doing something wrong.
any suggestions?

you need to use a moviecliploader instance if you want to use methods of its
listener (like onLoadStart, onLoadComplete and onLoadInit).
check the flash help files for how to use the moviecliploader. |

hello --
although the onLoadInit is working fine - i have run into another problem.
the mclListener is called during a loop,
by the time all images are loaded the mcLoader and mclListener.onLoadComplete
will only effect the last movie loaded.
im trying to set up a mclListener that will work with every cycle --
var mclListener[j]:Object = new Object();
but it doesnt work.
do you have any advice?
thanks again - i really appreciate the help.

should be outside your while-loop. |

Hello ?
i have tried you suggestions without luck,
the mclListener.onLoadStart, onLoadComplete ect will only affect the last
movie loaded into the movieClipLoader.
I think i have to create a new instance of the movieClipLoader for each pass
in the with loop - but not sure how.

Hello -
ive been struggling with this all week trying to find a solution.
i followed your instructions - but unfortunately i the mclListener will only
effect the last mcLoaded loaded.
do you have another suggestion?

well, what is it you expect them to do?
they execute for each item loaded. but when the first onLoadComplete executes
R1item is going to reference
_root.contentSpace.row1["row1_holder","row1_holder" + (R2.length-1)]
because the while loop completes execution before the first load even starts.
to remedy, use a relative path from the target movieclip (R1item.image.holder)
to R1item. ie,
target._parent._parent. |
