  • Hi Snowcat and first of all thanks for this wonderfull accordion component !
    There is only one little problem with texts. I publish from FflashCS3, the swf to diplay 100% of the screen, then texts don’t appear in he bars of the accordion.. :( Could you help me, please ??
    Another question, is it possible to put a HTML page inside every bars ?? That would be wonderful but I don’t have a clue how to do it. If you manage to do it, I directly buy !!! :D

  • Hey snowcat, love your work. Just wondering though, is there anyway to stop the image from moving when rolled over?


    Thanks.

  • In this upgrade from your last (Accordion XML) have you dropped the ability to use .swf files?

  • nycbone,
    No, we have not, you still have the abillity to use SWF files.
    We tested this, and we assure you that works.


    dlusiond1,
    You can stop it by going at Roll Over Properties and setting zoomPrecentage to 0 and kenBurns to false.


    wiggy.wonka,
    Check first if you setted in Text Properties the value of show to true. If it’s true and still doesn’t appear then please send me your FLA file along with your other assets packed into an archive to support at flashxml.net.
    For the second question, I don’t think it’s possible to put a whole HTML page inside every bar, but the text is HTML/CSS customizable.

  • Create a new div in your html file, between the head and the body. Give it the same id, you specified at the embbeding of the SWF file.
    Here you find detailed explanations.

  • I’m sorry, I have not explained well.
    I want to insert an image instead of text inside the swf as marked in images.xml <head> or <body>


    #  /  posted on Oct 27, 2009
  • This should work for you.
    <![CDATA[<head></head><body><br><img src=“02.jpg” alt=“Image 02”></body>]]>
    Make sure you put the image in the same folder with the html file.

  • You could try this script in order to work with php:


    <script type="text/javascript"> 
    			var flashvars = {}; 
    			flashvars.settingsXML = "settings.xml";	 
    			<?php 
    			if(count($_GET) > 0 || count($_POST) > 0) { 
    				$phpFlashVars = ""; 
    				foreach ($_GET as $var => $value) { 
    					$phpFlashVars .= 'flashvars.'.$var.'="'.$value.'";'; 
    				} 
    				foreach ($_POST as $var => $value) { 
    					$phpFlashVars .= 'flashvars.'.$var.'="'.$value.'";'; 
    				} 
    			} 
    			print($phpFlashVars); 
    			?> 
    			var params = {}; 
    			params.scale = "noscale"; 
    			params.salign = "tl"; 
    			params.wmode = "transparent"; 
    			var attributes = {}; 
    			swfobject.embedSWF("accordion.swf", "DockMenuDiv", "600", "300", "9.0.0",  
           false, flashvars, params, attributes); 
    		</script>

  • Hi Snowcat, I have another question. I put a .swf file inside one of the bars of the accordion and it works (cool!) but when I put buttons in that .swf file, there is a bug.. When I want to click on those buttons, the bar of the accordion closes directly.. :(
    Can you help me ?

  • Try to delete the url and target attribute from your images.xml file and it should work.
    If you still having problems send me a PM.

  • Hi there,
    I have added an image to the HTML text in the XML (as you illustrated below), which worked great. I am wondering if there is anyway to make that image a link. I have no problem adding a text link but don’t seem to be able to make an image linkable.
    Thanks!

  • The thing is that Flash doesn’t directly offers too much support for using CDATA nodes.


    In other words when CDATA nodes contain text and this text has some links to other pages everything works nice and beatifull, but when nodes contain images, it will load the images but it will not work to attach a link to it, because Flash treats each node as normal text nodes and also Flash is very limited for rendering html code.

  • I sent you a pm about my .swf link problem.
    Hope all is clear. Let me know, please. Thanks!

  • I sent you an mail with a respone. Have you recieve it?


    #  /  posted on Nov 13, 2009
  • great component! How do you add CSS to it though? In the header it just comes out as text.


    Can you use classes?


    Thanks

  • If you refer to the tooltip (the text from images) then that text is HTML/CSS customizable. So you specify its style using a CSS file.


    #  /  posted on Dec 11, 2009
  • Yes, I was referring to that, but i can’t get any CSS to work. I’ve tried linking it just about everywhere in the html and images.xml – nothing seems to work.


    Can you be more specific?

  • When you downloaded for the first time the archive containing the Accordion component.
    In it there was a file called style.css.
    That’s the key file from which you can modify the style of the text. This file don’t needs to be linked anywhere.
    You just need to place it in the same folder with your project.

  • Hello,
    Is there an easy way for this to only play once when set on autoplay?
    Perhaps a typical setting to tell it to loop only one time?

  • Hi,


    Sorry this feature is not implemented.

  • hi, i open the .fla with flash CS3 and i created a new swf, but the text doesen’t work, i think for an incorrect exportation.
    I want to know if anyone knows which settings i have to give for a new export in swf. THANKS


    #  /  posted on Mar 22, 2010
  • Hi,


    Make sure that you place the style.css file in the same folder with your FLA file and also all the other assets of the component (XMLs, images).

  • Meow.

    I was wondering if it is intended to use more than 1 snowcat component on a website at once. I say that because I'm attempting to use the accordion component on the same site as the banner rotator and they seem to have duplicate supporting filenames. Namely images.xml, settings.xml, style.css,

    How would you resolve this? Should I try to place all the accordion features in a different directory or rename the support files with an a_xxx.xxx, open the .fla file and change the support file names in the component inspector and republish? I haven't had much luck with either attempt so far so any advice you could give would be appreciated.

    Thanks! I love the components. Keep up the good work!
