Installation instructions for:

Download the page-flip.zip package, extract it and copy all the resulted files and folders in the same location as the web page in which you want the product to be displayed. As an alternative, you can copy all the resulted files and folders in a different folder.

From the downloaded package, the SWF file represents the actual product while the other files (XMLs, images) are the assets that the SWF file uses. A short explanation how SWFs and XMLs interacts can be found here.

Open the HTML file with a text editor (like Notepad or TextEdit) and add the following code where you want the product to be displayed:

<div id="DivPageFlipFX"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
 var flashvars = {};
 var params = {};
 params.base = "";
 params.scale = "noscale";
 params.salign = "tl";
 params.wmode = "transparent";
 params.allowFullScreen = "true";
 params.allowScriptAccess = "always";
 swfobject.embedSWF("PageFlipFX.swf", "DivPageFlipFX", "600", "520", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params);
</script>

Don't forget to replace the 600 and 520 from the swfobject.embedSWF() function above with your own width and height that you specified in the settings.xml file through componentWidth and componentHeight elements. Also, don't forget to update the paths as specified in this FAQ article if you copied the product's files in a different folder.

CUSTOMIZATION

You can customize the Page Flip FX using the Live Demo above and then download the page-flip.zip package with the changes you've made or you can edit the settings.xml file with a text editor.

This is how the Page Flip's layout looks like.

To use your own images, edit the images.xml file with a text editor and define in each row the image path, the url to go to when clicking the image, the target(_self for the same browser window or _blank for a new browser window) and the text between CDATA tags.

Here's an example to display an image on two pages:

<page>
      <photo image="images/101.jpg" url="http://www.flashxml.net" target="_blank" ><![CDATA[<head>Hello</head><body>world</body>]]></photo>
</page>

Here's an example to display two images on two pages:

<page>
      <photo image="images/102.png" url="http://www.flashxml.net" target="_blank"><![CDATA[<head>Hello</head><body>world</body>]]></photo>
      <photo image="images/103.swf" url="http://www.flashxml.net" target="_blank"></photo>
</page>

You can also add videos. Here's an example:

<page>
      <photo image="images/101.jpg" url="http://www.flashxml.net" target="_blank" media="video/green.flv" mediaImage="video/green.jpg" skin="assets/skins/videoSkin2.xml" width="230" height="172" position="CC" paddingH="0" paddingV="0" autoplay="false" displayOn="rightPage"></photo>
</page>

Here's an example for the last page:

<lastpage>
      <photo image="images/101.jpg" url="http://www.flashxml.net" target="_blank" ><![CDATA[<head>Hello</head><body>world</body>]]></photo>
</lastpage>

You can have as many pages as you like. To add a new page, add a new row in the XML file using <page> and </page> tags and add between these tags the content you want as specified in the examples above.

Please visit our FAQ page for answers to common questions.

If you want to get rid of the flashxml.net label from the top-left corner visible in the free version you have to purchase the product and use the paid version instead.

You can see an example on how to add a product in your Wordpress article/page here and how to add it in your theme or as a widget here.

Make sure your Wordpress version is greater than 2.8 and your hosting provider is using PHP5.

1. There are two files to download:

a. WordPress Plugin that you have to install and activate

b. Free package

2. Create a new folder inside your wp-content folder called flashxml, inside this folder create a new one called page-flip-fx and copy the content of the free package there

3. If you copied the free package to a location different than the one above, go to Page Flip FX from the Settings tab in your WordPress Dashboard and update the path accordingly

4. Add [page-flip-fx][/page-flip-fx] where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page

5. If you want to make the Page Flip FX part of your theme, edit the template files and add <?php fxpageflip_echo_embed_code(); ?> where you want it to show up

6. Customize your Page Flip FX using the Live Demo from the top of this page. Download the ZIP file and use the included settings.xml file to overwrite wp-content/flashxml/page-flip-fx/settings.xml

7. To use your own images, upload them to wp-content/flashxml/page-flip-fx/images and update the wp-content/flashxml/page-flip-fx/images.xml file accordingly

Additional settings file

To embed the Page Flip FX more than once, you will need another settings file and (probably) another set of images. Let's assume your new file is called settings2.xml. Add [page-flip-fx settings="settings2.xml"][/page-flip-fx] where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the file name as the first argument of the fxpageflip_echo_embed_code() function call (for example <?php fxpageflip_echo_embed_code("settings2.xml"); ?>).

Add as widget

To add the Page Flip FX as a widget, go to Widgets from the Appearance tab in your WordPress Dashboard, then drag and drop the Page Flip FX from Available Widgets to the widget area you want. You can specify a different settings.xml file and an alternative content for users without Adobe Flash Player from the widget's settings.

No Flash support text

To support visitors without Adobe Flash Player, you can provide alternative content by adding the text between [page-flip-fx] and [/page-flip-fx]. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the text as the second argument of the fxpageflip_echo_embed_code() function call (for example <?php fxpageflip_echo_embed_code("", "Alternative content"); ?>).

Change WMODE

By default, the WMODE value is transparent but you can change it to window from the Page Flip FX in the Settings tab in your WordPress Dashboard. For widgets, this can be done from the widget's settings. If you want to have a different WMODE value in a specific place, it can be done like this: [page-flip-fx wmode="window"][/page-flip-fx]. If you're using the PHP function, here's an example on: <?php fxpageflip_echo_embed_code("", "", 0, 0, "window"); ?>.

If you have PHP4

To make it work with PHP4, add [page-flip-fx width="400" height="300"][/page-flip-fx] where you want the Flash to show up in your post/page. If you made the Flash part of your theme, add the width and height as the third and fourth argument of the fxpageflip_echo_embed_code() function call. Don't forget to provide your own width and height values, since 400 and 300 are just examples.

Getting rid of the FlashXML.net label

To remove the FlashXML.net label from the top-left corner you'll need to buy the paid package. Once you'll do that, simply use the SWF file from the paid package to overwrite the SWF file from the wp-content/flashxml/page-flip-fx/ folder.

1. Download the free package. You need to host all the included files from the package on your own domain because Facebook doesn't allow file hosting.

2. Log in to your Facebook account.

3. Search for the Static HTML: iframe tabs application and select it.

4. Click on Add Static HTML to a page button and you'll be prompted for the page where you want the app to be added.

5. Once added you'll see on the left side menu of your page a new tab with a star icon called Welcome. Click on it to edit it.

6. Add the following HTML embedding code in the text field:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.folderPath = "http://www.yourdomain.com/product_folder/";
var params = {};
params.scale = "noscale";
params.salign = "tl";
params.wmode = "transparent";
params.allowScriptAccess = "always";
params.allowFullScreen = "true";
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.yourdomain.com/product_folder/ProductName.swf", "DivFlashComponent", "600", "400", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>
<div id="DivFlashComponent"></div>

Don't forget to use your own URL for the product's location, name, width and height.

7. Click preview to see how it looks or save changes. The product is now added to the Welcome tab of your page.

8. Optional: To change the tab's name, called by default Welcome, edit your page, go to the Apps tab and click Edit Settings option next to the Static HTML: iframe tabs application to enter the name you want.

9. Optional: To make the tab your default landing tab (first thing your visitors see on your page) edit your page and go to the Manage Permissions tab and change the Default Landing Tab.

Getting rid of the FlashXML.net label

To remove the FlashXML.net label from the top-left corner you'll need to buy the paid package. Once you do that, simply use the SWF file from the paid package to overwrite the SWF file from the location where you hosted all the files from the free package.

The module is used for adding the product in one or more pages in a given position (e.g. top, bottom, sidebar) while the plugin is used for adding the product inside a specific article.

You can see an example on how to install a module in your Joomla 1.5 website here, how to install a plugin in your Joomla 1.5 website here, how to install a module in your Joomla 1.6 website here and how to install a plugin in your Joomla 1.6 website here.

Make sure your Joomla version is at least 1.5 and your hosting provider is using PHP5.

Joomla Module Instructions:

1. There are two files to download (both under GPL License):

a. Joomla Module (version 1.5 or version 1.6, 1.7 & 2.5) that you have to install and enable

b. Free package

2. Create a new folder inside your Joomla folder called flashxml, inside this folder create a new one called pageflipfx and copy the content of the free package there

3. If you copied the free package to a location different than the one above, update the Path from module's parameters accordingly

4. Customize your Page Flip FX using the Live Demo from the top of this page. Download the ZIP file and use the included settings.xml file to overwrite flashxml/pageflipfx/settings.xml

Note that the Joomla Module can only be used once in your website.

Joomla Plugin Instructions:

1. There are two files to download (both under GPL License):

a. Joomla Plugin (version 1.5 or version 1.6, 1.7 & 2.5) that you have to install and enable

b. Free package

2. Create a new folder inside your Joomla folder called flashxml, inside this folder create a new one called pageflipfx and copy the content of the free package there

3. If you copied the free package to a location different from the one above, update the Path from plugin's parameters accordingly

4. Add {pageflipfx}{/pageflipfx} where you want the Flash to show up in your article

5. Customize your Page Flip FX using the Live Demo from the top of this page. Download the ZIP file and use the included settings.xml file to overwrite flashxml/pageflipfx/settings.xml

6. The default name for the settings file is settings.xml, but if you want to use another file (for example settings2.xml), specify the name like this: {pageflipfx settings=settings2.xml}{/pageflipfx} where you want the component to show up in your article

7. In some cases the width and height will not be read from the settings.xml file but you can specify them like this: {pageflipfx width=400 height=300}{/pageflipfx}. Don't forget to provide your own width and height values, since 400 and 300 are just examples.

No Flash support text

To support visitors without Adobe Flash Player, you can provide alternative content by adding the text between {pageflipfx} and {/pageflipfx}.

Changing WMODE

By default, the WMODE value is transparent but you can change it to window from the module/plugin's parameters. If you want to have a different WMODE value in a specific article, it can be done like this: {pageflipfx wmode=window}{/pageflipfx}.

Getting rid of the FlashXML.net label
To remove the FlashXML.net label from the top-left corner you'll need to buy the paid package.
Once you will do that, simply use the SWF file from the paid package to overwrite the SWF file from the flashxml/pageflipfx/ folder.

The Page Flip FX component is available for Flash CS3, CS4, CS5, CS5.5 and requires Flash Player 9 or later. To use this product in Flash you need the MXP file that is available only in the paid package.

You can see an example of how to install a component in Flash Professional here.

In this video you will see:
- how to create an instance of the component on the stage: from the Components panel (Ctrl+F7) drag & drop the component on the stage
- how to give a name to an instance for further use in ActionScript: click on the component instance on the stage and from the Properties panel (Ctrl+F3) enter a name in the text input
- how to access the properties of the component (read or modify) during different moments of your Flash application

Any property of the component could be accessed that way. The names of the properties are identical with the ones from the settings.xml file. The properties of the component can be any of these three types: Number, String, Boolean. We assume it’s intuitive of which type each property is.

Warning! Setting the parameters of the component in the Component Inspector window (Shift+F7) and in the same time having a settings.xml file populated with different values for each property, the properties from the settings.xml file will have priority (meaning that a parameter set in the Component Inspector will be ignored if that parameter is also defined in the XML file).

For now, this component does not dispatch events, but stay tuned for an update.

It took me five whole days to figure out how to change the flip page sizes so I am posting this in the event there are some other dense newbies like myself having trouble sizing their Flipper.

The Width and Height figures relalte to the size of your images. They must be changed in settings.xml AND in the html file.

PosY positions the images on the screen vertically

The two numbers below position the control bar below the images, and the posY value in this case must be similar to the images’ height value.

(for example, a Height of 866, requires a skin posY of 680)

For images of 866 × 723, the following control bar figure are good (don’t try correcting the mis-spelling. It is part of the code).

<Cotrol_Bar_Skin> <skin value=“skin1.xml”/> <pozX value=“235”/> <pozY value=“680”/>

Good luck. This is fine program with features taht are unique on the web.

I assume you mean Width and height under ‘General_Properties.

I have played with those interminably and all I get is cramping, cropping, interference with the control bar, and other problems.

What exactly does the height and width values affect? The size of the images or the size of the display?

Cal.

Hi,

The width and height affects the size of the entire swf file. You also have to change the width and height in the embedding code from the html file. Don’t forget to also change the pozX and pozY for the control bar.

Hi
Is it possible – using the nature example – to have the page links (go to ) on the actual front page itself – like a Contents index
Thanks
Tony AYling

Hi,

I’m sorry but it’s not possible to go to the actual front page itself but you could link to the html page where the Page Flip is added and it will be something similar.

I want to produce a catalog, and the default size is too small to read product descriptions when
a number of items are included on each page.

See http://coolwebdesign.ca/flipcat/index.html

I have been trying for four days to find a way to increase the size, but nothing works. I suppose it is a function of the fla file?

But I can not get the MXP file to work with Flash 8 Professional or MX Professional 2004. Extension Manager says it is installed but it isn’t listed in components when I open Flash8.

I have another Flipper that works very well, but lacks the great ‘window’ features of Page Flip

Thanks for all your quick responses to my problems.

Hi,

You have to increase the size of galleryWidth and galleryHeight attributes from your settings.xml file.

I can move the control bar over with “pozx” but can not simply move the “magazine to be in the center of the screen. How can I do that?

Also, having “captions” like carousel would be nice, without having to etch them into the photo image with PS.

Music? If I replace the flipstart.mp3 in sounds with an mp3 file, then the new mp3 plays. Is there a less obtusive way so that the page click AND a background music score both play?

Hi,

To center the page flip component in your html file you should follow this steps:

1. In your HTML file in the head section write this tag:

<link href="stylePageFlip.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

2. Next in your project folder you’ll need to create this file stylePageFlip.css.

3. Open the stylePageFlip.css file and write the following lines

body
{
   margin:0;
   padding:0;
   text-align:center;
}
#PageFlipDiv
{
   margin:0 auto;
   padding:0;
}

We added a sound that simulates the page flipping. To add a sound for the entire duration of the page flipping play, you’ll have to do that in Flash.
