XML SlideNav

This is an ActionScript 2 navigational menu that uses XML to load the menu items and colors. There is no limit to the number of menu items you can add (other than your screen space).

The menu is accomplished almost fully through ActionScript – there is a single movieclip (for the slider bar) that must be placed on the stage, but the rest of the menu generates itself fully using the ActionScript code and the XML document. It will work in Flash 8 or newer software versions.

All of the Actionscript is held within the first frame of the main timeline. The script is well-commented, so check within the Flash file for explanations of what each snippet of code does.
