» Title: Creative DW Image Show PRO
» Description: Creative DW Image Show PRO is a Dreamweaver extension which enables the user to create multimedia presentations. It combines the features of the popular Creative DW Image Show with the ability to add professional text effects to slides (similar to After Effects). The product is very customizable: the user can choose the duration of the transition effects, the slide motion start and end position, zoom and panning type for both images and texts.
Loading information from an XML file requires a different approach to using
a text file, so we'll use a completely new movie with the structure shown below.
We will only need two layers - combo and actions - and a single frame.
Add the following text to the actions layer. It loads the sites.xml file and
then stops the movie. Once the movie has loaded, the LoadCombo function will
load the ComboBox component.
//create a new XML object
thisXML = new XML();
//ignore whitespace in the file
thisXML.ignoreWhite = true;
//call the LoadCombo function when the XML file is loaded
thisXML.onLoad = LoadCombo;
//load the xml file
thisXML.load("sites.xml");
stop();
