Creating a JPEG slide show with XML

Description:This article shows you how to create a dynamic JPEG slide show in Macromedia Flash MX using XML (Extensible Markup Language) and the XML ActionScript object. The sample slide show application shown below uses an external XML file that provides, for each slide, the URL to a JPEG file and a short text description. Each JPEG is loaded dynamically with the loadMovie action, and buttons let the audience navigate between slides. The movie also displays the index of the slide currently displayed, and the total number of slides.
