I have a flash file that uses AS2 that am interested in using this accordion in, is there a version of this file that uses AS2 instead of AS3 ?

Can the broad border area color be changed? Gradient color? Can a large image be used as the background?
Jim
This would look good with several sites we are working on!

Hi Jim,
The broad border color can be changed in the xml. It’s just a single color however, not a gradient. If you purchase the file send me a message from my email and I’ll send you back a version that has both a gradient and image option.

Hi Jack,
Very interested in purchasing your product for a specific project I’m working on. I have a question, I would like to able to change the number of menu items on the fly depending on a certain set of conditions being met.
For example, I have a list of 50 companies each has it’s own panel of data, and depending on a value in the data it will be added to the menu.
Do you think this would be possible, something along the the line of
if(valueA<20) { addMenuItem; }
With valueA being defined as a value in the xml document.
I look forward to hearing from you
Best Steve

Hi Steven,
This would involve some additional work. I am not available for freelance at the moment but would recommend contacting the following two FlashDen members to see if they’d be interested:

Hi,
When I changed the fonts of MyText, (I tried both CS3 and CS4 ). The MyText will no longer displayed in the .swf.
Please give it a try. I do not understand why this happen. I have to change the fonts to “Use device fonts” as my text is going to be chinese.
Thank you.

Hi Alan,
There is an easy fix for this. Inside the fonts movie clip right click the layer named “theMask” and deselect “mask”. Then open up the actions layer and paste this code in:
theMask.cacheAsBitmap = true; myText.cacheAsBitmap = true; myText.mask = theMask;

Hi Cracker Jack,
Kudos on your work! I don’t know a thing about flash but this was a cinch to set up and implement… One thing I am having a problem with is changing the font size for the body text. I tried adjusting the css file but that did not yield any results. I’m sure it’s something simple… please help me out.
Thank you,
Charles

Hi Phatcat,
To adjust the font size, wrap your specified text in a span tag like this:
<span class="bigFontSize">some text</span>
Then in the css file, add the class:
.bigFontSize {
font-size: 32px;
}
If this isn’t working, check to make sure the CSS file exists on your server in a folder named “css”.

Jack,
Thanks for the rapid reply. I have to say that even though the suggestion did not work I am thoroughly impressed with you and will check back frequently for your work.
I followed the above solution exactly and checked to make sure the css file was in the css folder [it is] but still nothing. I tried to place a section of text in the span tag, the entire description in the span tag to no avail. I’m sure it’s something simple that I am missing.
Everything else in the faq is perfect… colors, size, etc. but I’m afraid the text will be a little too small when I embed this in the page.
I’m open to any other suggestions and thanks again for the rapid response!

Hey Charles,
I’m not sure I understand completely. Currently, when you download the source files, a portion of the body text is styled from CSS . It’s the HTML that says:
<span class="big">XML Options Include</span>
So the CSS class “big” in the css file increases this text to a size of 32px.
-Jack
Hey Jack,
I understand what you are saying, I just did a poor job of explaining what I tried to do.
I opened the xml file [data.xml] and applied the span tag as instructed above replacing “some text” with a section of the description text; I then went into the css file [styles.css] and added the class as instructed. Unfortunately, nothing changed; cleared my cache, still no change in font size.
I then repeated the same steps as above but instead of just including a portion of the text [which was kind of an experiment] I started the span tag at the beginning of the description text and closed it at the end of the text… made no difference.
What you are saying makes perfect sense so I’m at a loss to understand why something so simple is not working. Thank you for your time and great support.

Hi!
Great plugin!
You had answered a previous question about making the accordion start with all items closed.
Can you tell me what I need to alter in the MyFaq.as file to make this happen?
Your reply is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi Meca2,
Flash can be quirky with HTML images. Try adding several
<br />
tags to force the text field to account for the additional images.
If you’re still having trouble, send me an email from my profile page with an online example and I’ll take a look.
