Your code seems a little roundabout for me. I have rewritten it but the functionality is still the same (And it works as you want)...

The way this is achieved is by using a html component. Upon event complete of this component I have a function which creates a snapshot of the html component and makes it the source of an image there fore making that image a thumbnail of that particular site. > > > I then want it to do the same for further sites but obviously using multiple hmtl components would be out of the question as it would greatly increase loading times (I've tried and it slows the application down majorly) so what I'm trying to do is set the 'complete' property of the 1 html component I've got so that when the first site is loaded i.e. event complete of the html component has been reached a snapshot of that site will be created and made as the source of my first thumbnail and then the location of the html component will change to the next site, a snapshot of that site will then be made upon event complete of the component and will be made the source of my second thumbnail and so on and so forth. > > > I'm struggling to get this to work effectively but I think I'm going along the right lines. Here's my code so far. Can anyone please tell me how I can edit it so that this effect is achieved in a row the way I have described:- > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> > <mx:WindowedApplication xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="vertical" verticalAlign="middle" backgroundColor="white" width="1024" height="768"> > > <mx:Script> > <![CDATA[ > import mx.graphics.ImageSnapshot; > > private function takeabcnewsSnapshot(abcnewssource:IBitmapDrawable):void { > var abcnewsimageBitmapData:BitmapData = ImageSnapshot.captureBitmapData(abcnewssource); > abcnewsimage.source = new Bitmap(abcnewsimageBitmapData); > } > > private function takegooglenewsSnapshot(googlenewssource:IBitmapDrawable):void { > var googlenewsimageBitmapData:BitmapData = ImageSnapshot.captureBitmapData(googlenewssource); > googlenewsimage.source = new Bitmap(googlenewsimageBitmapData); > } > > private function takeyahoonewsSnapshot(yahoonewssource:IBitmapDrawable):void { > var yahoonewsimageBitmapData:BitmapData = ImageSnapshot.captureBitmapData(yahoonewssource); > yahoonewsimage.source = new Bitmap(yahoonewsimageBitmapData); > } > > private function abcnewshtml_complete(evt:Event):void { > takeabcnewsSnapshot(myhtml); > } > > private function googlenewshtml_complete(evt:Event):void { > takegooglenewsSnapshot(myhtml); > } > > private function yahoonewshtml_complete(evt:Event):void { > takeyahoonewsSnapshot(myhtml); > } > > ]]> > </mx:Script> > <mx:Image id="abcnewsimage" width="100" height="100"/> > <mx:Image id="googlenewsimage" width="100" height="100"/> > <mx:Image id="yahoonewsimage" width="100" height="100"/> > > <mx:HTML id="myhtml" > location="http://abcnews.com/"; > complete="abcnewshtml_complete(event); myhtml.location='http://news.yahoo.com/'; yahoonewshtml_complete(event); myhtml.location='http://news.google.com/'; googlenewshtml_complete(event)" > width="100%" > height="454" /> > > </mx:WindowedApplication> >
