wondering what the most ideal way would be for loading a large number of images into Flash dynamically?
I was originally thinking of a simple serverside script to pass a comma delimitered list of images via sendAndLoad – however I could be dealing with 100+ images of vary file name length so assume I could hit the sendAndLoad limit
&images=photo.jpg,photo.jpg,photo.jpg,photo.jpg,photo.jpg,photo.jpg
The second thought was to use sendAnLoad to call a serverside script to generate a serise of XML files to then in turn load when a “next page” button was pressed in Flash
&pagedata=page1.xml
Any thoughts?
My vote for xml.
This will give you ability not only pass more pictures url to the app, but also include additional configuration/information, like picture name, author, date, comments…etc.
