XML Banner Rotation System

Hi Lex,

This version does not load them randomly, but I will try to make a version that does this afternoon or tonight. Keep track of the comments here and I will let you know.

Hi Yvo – well commented banner and easy to modify the AS to suit/customise whatever project – just changing a few bits and pieces myself.

Just wondering where you could post or email (kel supajuicy.com) the AS for fixing the looping SWF banner (as per rickw comment) – guessing you’ve just added a .play(); somewhere

E-mail sent Zoohouse.

i love this file!

but i’m wondering if its possible to stop the loop, and have it play only once. i’ve tried a couple things.. but i can’t figure it out.

also i would love to hear about fixing the looping SWF issue. because i might like to do something like that in the future.

thanks in advance!

Hi sugarkincaid, I’m glad you like the file. I’m sorry for my late reply btw, but I’m a bit under the weather at the moment. I made a modification to the file, so that it does what you want it to. I can e-mail it to you, but of course I don’t have your e-mail address. If you send me a message through my profile, I can e-mail you back. I’ll send you the modified file and also the version that handles non-looped swf’s.

I Love This File

Though, I was wondering, in the xml text file where the rotational banners’ information is listed, if I do not want to direct a particular banner to a url link, is there an xml code I can use so that when I click on the banner, nothing will happen and then the banner will progress to the the next banner which could have a url link. Please let me know if this is possible, for now an undefined web page pops up when nothing is listed or defined within . I am rather new to xml and I am not sure if this is possible. Thank you for making the file available, it is pretty cool.

Hi lionsden333,

First off, thank you for your compliment. And again sorry for the late reply, but I have been a bit under the weather. I have already made a version for someone else that handles a banner not having a link and can e-mail this to you. Making it possible to click through to the next banners is a lot of extra coding and cannot be set from the XML . If you want the no link version, just send me an e-mail through my profile and I will mail it to you.

Yvo, I purchased your file, love it. I have 1 issue, “my dynamic jquery drop down menu navigation now drops down beneath the Flash banner” making the page useless

do you know a work around for this

does anyone know how to get the drop down menu to fall in front of the Flash banner?!

Thanks Ellen

Hi Ellen, I’m glad you like the file. Your issue is a common one. Have you tried playing with the z-index? Give the jquery menu a higher priority by giving it a higher z-index than the div containing the swf.

Request for the changes necessary to use with non-linked banner, as well as using swf banners with a “stop” at the end. Thanks

yvo, Thanks so much for the quick – and even more than asked for – support. Huge help. Too anyone looking at this, or any of Yvo’s other files, I was very impressed by his quick and over the top response to my inquiry (I had asked about some changes involving making the banners click through to the next banner, rather than link to site. This enabled me to use them as a separate window with its own transitions. He had to do a fair amount of work on this – but he did it all quickly, and gratis, and delivered some extra things I didn’t even ask for. For such a small purchase – a huge amount of support. Thanks Yvo, Travis

Cheers mate and you are most welcome.

Yvo is the BEST !!!! awesome response to my questions..please support this brilliant developer!

Cheers Tesla

Thanks for your nice work & Great, quick support.

Hi,

I have question about the button not working with links. I have resized the file to width 880px wide but now I dont get the links working when I have mouse hover over the banner and it only works on the left side of the banner and only seems to be clickable upto 300px from left side then the rest is not clickable is there something else I need to resize to make the click area same width as Banner ? I did try making the Banners mc same size but this dose not seem to cover the area as I had thought. Please advise

Thanks Tao
