Re: [Flashcoders] Quickie for xml dynamic text loader in flash
Unless there's a significant reason for needing separate XML files for each... keyframe(?)... you can put them all together much more easily and load everything from the beginning into an array of objects. This way you only have to refer to local storage and not have to call to the server over and over for each... uh... keyframe... http://www.#.com";> June, 22 2008 Article 1 http://www.#.com";> June, 24 2008 Article 2 http://www.#.com";> June, 29 2008 Article 3 Not sure why you're using keyframes for each. You can keep the same textFields, and just update them. Last tip: your news articles in the XML don't need to be news1, news2, news3. If you put them in an array you'll have news_array [0].title, news_array[1].title and so on. -radley http://www.#.com";>June 29, 2008First manned mission to Mars landsThe first manned mission to Mars has touched down on the surface of the red planet.
