Sample 6 - Use of HTML

This example shows the use of HTML for formatting text fields. Note that only a subset of all HTML tags are available for use inside text fields. Control and appearance of the Carousel are effected entirely via the XML file 3dcarouselv1.xml (Help File).

If the links do not work when accessing this sample from your local hard disk, a Flash security setting may be the reason, because connections from local Flash animations to the Internet must be approved by you explicitly. To remedy this issue, open the Flash Player Settings Manager:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04a.html
and choose the "Global Security Settings Panel", "Edit Locations", then enter the local disk directory where the animation is stored.




Settings in 3dcarouselv1.xml:
- Content1HTML="true"
- Content2HTML="true"
- <Content1><![CDATA[<font color='#ffffff' ...
- <Content2><![CDATA[<font color='#FCAB33' ...


The following HTML Tags are supported:
Anchor: <a href='...'>...</a>
Bold: <b>...</b>
Font: <font color='...' size='...' face='...'>
Paragraph: <p align="..."></p>
Underline: <u></u>
Break: <br />...
Image: <img src='...' vspace="..." hspace="..." width="..." height="..."  />
List Item: <li>...<br>...</li>


HTML in 3dcarouselv1.xml:


There is no possibility to display images side by side. Even if you define in html that the images are to be shown side by side they will be shown in vertical order. This is a limitation of the Flash text field.
