Photo Gallery Using XML and Flash</H1>
<br> Tutorial Description - It is time for another photo gallery tutorial! This one is a little more advanced than the other photo gallery tutorial on this site. So, now, what would make me write another tutorial on a topic that has already been covered? The answer is easier maintenance! In the earlier photo gallery tutorial, if you wanted to add an extra image, you had to manually edit the FLA file and add the image's name to the array. That usually requires a few more steps such as uploading a new SWF and a possible renaming the file and embed paths to avoid browser caching.
In this version, if you want to add another image to your photo gallery, all you have to do is edit an XML file. Your photo gallery automatically incorporates your addition without you having to even touch the FLA. In the long run, you may find that the time you save in adding or editing existing images is worth more than your time in going through this tutorial. Plus, this version of the tutorial accommodates captions for your images. Everybody loves captions
