An easy to manage, XML /RSS news ticker for your sites.
Features:
* pause on rollover* maximum character to prevent loooong headlines
* set headlines to uppercase or lowercase
* default pause time
* next&prev buttons to skip through
uhm this could possibly be a FrickrTicker as well, hmmmm…
- Suggestion for crossdomain workaround – instead of flash calling directly a RSS feed, thus needing crossdomain.xml to approve usage, flash calls a php/asp page which loads that RSS & publishes itself as a XML /RSS. this way the RSS now sits on your server. PHP FILE NOW INCLUDED
How to add special characters:
create a new layer on the main timeline, add this script(press F9 to get the action panel):System.useCodepage = true;
next look in the library, open up the file name “Tween 1”, select all 3 text box, look at the properties panel, click embed/character embedding. You will see uppercase, lowercase, numerics & punctuations already selected, now, just include any other character set of your choice by holding cmd+click. That’s it, now republish the swf.
and oh, do checkout:
