Re: [Flashcoders] cancel loading process
I seem to recall someone on this list suggesting that if you call loadMovie(null) on an already loading clip, it actually cancels the load. Of course, I may have been dreaming... I haven't actually tried it! HTH, Ian ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
Re: [Flashcoders] cancel loading process
once you make a call to load an asset from a web server, the web browser
won't cancel the download unfortunately. Once you call for it, that's it. Of
course, we found this on Flash7, and I'm not thinking there's anything
different on F8, but maybe someone else knows different.

[Flashcoders] cancel loading process
Hi All,
i have the following problem. I want to load a sequence of Images. I have my
own SequenceLoader so that is fine.
Now i need to now the size (totalBytes) of all clips in advance to show a
progress bar that counts all clips.
So my first guess is to load one clip wait fort he first progress - get the
bytesTotal - and than cancel the loading. With this i would get the
Sizes of all clips without loading them. Now i always thought it`s not
possible to cancel a loading progress but to my surprise the following seems
to work:
this.createEmptyMovieClip("image_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
mclListener.onLoadProgress = function(target:MovieClip, bytesLoaded:Number,
bytesTotal:Number){
var progress:Object = mcLoader.getProgress(image_mc);
trace(" bytesTotal: " + bytesTotal);
size_tx.text=bytesTotal;
image_mcl.unloadClip(target);
};
var image_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
image_mcl.addListener(mclListener);
image_mcl.loadClip("img1.jpg", image_mc);
I believe that the loading is really canceled. I don`t have the image in my
cache after calling this.
Can someone verify that this works? Any better solutions?
Thanx
