show FPP pano in another flash file

[jositako]

I've started to use the "pageflip" flash application from:

http://pageflip.hu/

The application allows for images and flash apps to be loaded into the book by using an external XML file.

Question. Is it possible to load the FPP flash app. into the pageflip app. by (just) calling it from the XML file of the pageflip app?

The pagflip XML file allows for the name of the flash app to be loaded only.

I would love to see the book flipping and suddenly a working pano appears... :-)

Thank you!

Hi Jositako,

in fact I've already seen this somewhere on the internet, so it must be possible. But I am not sure if it was done with the flipbook application you name or with another one. It was definitely FPP that was embedded, though.

Hhm, why not call FPP and use a query string that points to your XML file? (See documentation: Something like pano.swf?xml-file=my_xml.xml) I can't find the link to the mentioned example, sorry. But it's possible, so good luck with your experiments!

Thanks guys, that is great stuff.

The examples are very helpful. Both call the fpp pano through a button on the pageflip page and show the panorama as a pagespread.... interesting.

I have done some more research and it seems very difficult to actually run a FPP or any flash app. for that matter in another flash app without being able to control / modify the AS in both the hosting as well as the child flash app.

I'll keep searching and share my example when ready.
