radio btn onclick show image

[djeet]

Hi,
This question is related to xml and flash. I have an xml file which has path to images that r in my 'images' folder. this xml file will be called by the flash movie.
What I want: there will be radio btns. in the flash movie, when the user clicks on a radio btn the specific image should be displayed.
suppose if the user clicks on radio btn 'blue' then '2.gif' will be displayed.
I hope my ques. is clear. Pls help with the actionscript I'll have to write.

Just unzip the files in a folder and create a folder in the same folder and name it as "images" avoid quotes. Then place jpeg files in it named 01.jpg,02.jpg.....08.jpg

Hi Ravi, maybe djeet wants to use radio btns and u have provided the swf that starts on its own. Even I would want to have this ques solved :)

[djeet]

Yes, I tried the zip that u gave. Thanks for that. But it didn't solve my problem. I know how to make what u have given. But, I want the image to come only when the radio btn is clicked.

[raviganesh91221]

this will work. I have radio buttons in flash. and a xml file. U just create a folder called images in the same folder and have images like 01.jpg 02.jpg....06.jpg

wow, ravi good. I don't know about 'djeet' but i have a query. What if the no of images increases or decreases, can't we update the radio btns. acc to it. i mean creating radio btns and their label thru actionscript?
Otherwise, i think one will have to go inside the fla to customize.

[raviganesh91221]

Yes probably we can do it. But I dont know how to duplicate a component dynamically. Instead we can create a MC like radiobutton abd we duplicate it accordingly

[Divyakedia]

this is the problem. If we cannot dynamically change the no. of radio btns acc. to the no of images, then what is the use of xml.

[raviganesh91221]

Dont be silly. WE can change the images no, whatever number we have created

[Divyakedia]

arre, i mean to say-suppose we have only 3 images and u have created 6 radio btns. won't it look stupid. Similarly, if there r more than 6 imgs. from where will the 7th radio btn come?

[raviganesh91221]

Its ok but his need was just to load a specific number of images ok.

[Divyakedia]

congrats for your century :) And let us try to dynamically change the no of radio btns.

[djeet]

Thanks for the reply. Maybe I'm not good at framing questions till yet. But, I would definitely want to match the no of radio btns with the no of images in the folder, otherwise the user will keep clicking the btns and no image will appear or I'll have to change the no of btns each time the no of images change.
Another thing, what if i want to replace the radio btns with check boxes, what will be different in ActionScript?

[djeet]

i am waiting for a reply.

[raviganesh91221]
