Hi. i’d like to know how to go to a html FILE (which is in my computer) through the images. is it possible? THANKS

Hi,

I had read the tutorial, but that was part of the problem. There seems to be some conflict between using the folderPath parameter and the settingXML parameters together.

By necessity, I need to use a folderPath parameter. I initially places the settings1.xml and settings2.xml in the same folder. But when I did so, your code looked for the settings.xml file and not the settings1.xml or settings2.xml files even though they were explicitly specified in the settingXML parameters.

My eventual solution, after much diddling, was to create two different folders, dispense with the settingXML parameter and include a (different) setting.xml file in each folder along with the appropriate images and images.xml files.

This achieves the desired result, but seems a little clunky. Nonetheless, your component is brilliant and I am very pleased with the results.

Thanks

Thanks, it worked!

OK,

I’ve found a solution to my own problem.

- Created two folders on the server: flashvars1 and flashvars2. – Removed the flashvars1.settingXML=“setting1.xml” and flashvars2.settingXML=“setting2.xml” lines from my javascript. – Set flashvars1.folderPath = “/ev/flashvars1/” and flashvars2.folderPath = “/ev/flashvars2/” – Put my images, images.xml and setting.xml files separately in each folder.

It’s not very elegant and a little counter-intuitive, but it works. Perhaps you can offer a better solution.

Thanks,

Hi,

Any idea what I’m doing wrong here?

Had everything working fine with a single scrolling display. I’m now trying to display two sets of images using the following code:

<script type=“text/javascript”>
var flashvars1 = {};
flashvars1.folderPath = “/ev/flash/”;
flashvars1.settingXML=“settings1.xml”;
var params1 = {};
params1.scale = “noscale”;
params1.salign = “tl”;
params1.wmode = “transparent”;
params1.allowscriptaccess = “sameDomain”;
var attributes1 = {};
swfobject.embedSWF(”/ev/flash/imagescroller.swf”, “ScrollerDiv1”, “140”, “210”, “9.0.0”, false, flashvars1, params1, attributes1);

var flashvars2 = {};
flashvars2.folderPath = “/ev/flash/”;
flashvars2.settingXML=“settings2.xml”;
var params2 = {};
params2.scale = “noscale”;
params2.salign = “tl”;
params2.wmode = “transparent”;
params2.allowscriptaccess = “sameDomain”;
var attributes2 = {};
swfobject.embedSWF(”/ev/flash/imagescroller.swf”, “ScrollerDiv2”, “140”, “420”, “9.0.0”, false, flashvars2, params2, attributes2);

</script> .....
<div id=“ScrollerDiv1”> </div>
<div id=“ScrollerDiv2”> </div>
.....

The imagesXML parameter in settings1 is set as images1.xml.
The imagesXML parameter in settings2 is set as images2.xml.

Perversely, the scrolling content in both areas appears to be coming from the contents of my settings.xml and images.xml and not from the settings1.xml, settings2.xml, images1.xml, images2.xml files on the same directory.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I’m trying to embed the scroller to my site hosted on Blogger. Because you can’t upload files directly to the host, I hosted the files on a different site and made the appropriate adjustments as described in your post. But nothing happens on the page. Does it not work on blogger? They seem to support scripts, so I’m not sure why nothing’s loading. Thanks for any help!

Hi
I am getting a problem with the scroller to load… it all works fine on my local machine but when i upload my site the pre loading screen appears (red sequenced squares..)
I have adjusted the script tag in the body of the ‘electrical.html’ page as this is where the scroller script is located. The settings.xml, images.xml and the imagescoller.swf files are in the root folder of the domain (www) I altered the path for the swfobject.js as this file sits in the ‘js’ folder….Could it be that xml files dont like to be run in the root folder or is it a simple path issue that im missing/!!

Much appreciated if you can look… www.integrated-electrical.co.uk/electrical.html

<script type=“text/javascript” src=”../js/swfobject.js”></script>
<script type=“text/javascript”>
var flashvars = {};
var params = {};
params.scale = “noscale”;
params.salign = “tl”;
params.wmode = “transparent”;
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF(“imagescroller.swf”, “ImageScrollerDiv”, “600”, “190”, “9.0.0”, false, flashvars, params, attributes);
</script>

Hi,

I am trying to integrate the 3Dstack into Drupal 6.
I have the embed code placed in page.tpl, the swfobject.js is in the js directory, settings.xml, images.xml are in the same directory as the page.tpl (theme directory).
Also the images folder that came with the package is in the theme directory (for the moment also with the images from the package).
I used all absolute paths to get it working, but the only thing that shows is the Flash XML logo.
The URL for the test site is http://prokrant.powercraft.nl in the settings.xml I used the following paths:
<settingsXML value=“http://prokrant.powercraft.nl/sites/prokrant.powercraft.nl/themes/prokrant/settings.xml”/> and
<imagesXML value=“http://prokrant.powercraft.nl/sites/prokrant.powercraft.nl/themes/prokrant/images.xml”/>

images.xml are called via:
<images> <image url=“http://prokrant.powercraft.nl/sites/prokrant.powercraft.nl/themes/prokrant/images/01.jpg” link=“http://www.flashxml.net” target=”_blank” title=“Hello” />

in page.tpl this code is called to embed the object <script type=“text/javascript” src=”<? print $base_path . path_to_theme(); ?>/js/swfobject.js”></script> <script type=“text/javascript”> var flashvars = {}; var params = {}; params.scale = “noscale”; params.salign = “tl”; params.wmode = “transparent”; params.allowfullscreen = “true”; var attributes = {}; swfobject.embedSWF(”<? print $base_path . path_to_theme(); ?>/3dstack.swf”, “StackDiv”, “200”, “230”, “9.0.0”, false, flashvars, params, attributes); </script>

Any clue to get it working?

kind regards,
jeroen den Haan

Sorry!

its already working. I tested it local but on the server it works.

Hi,

I have a problem to get the urls working. I’m trying for testing to link to google.nl

<Carousel> <photo image=“images/01.png” url=“http://www.google.nl” ><![CDATA[Download the new<br/>3D Carousel]]></photo> <photo image=“images/02.png” url=“http://www.google.nl” ><![CDATA[Download the new<br/>3D Carousel]]></photo>
</Carousel>

what’s wrong? if I click on the image it won’t work.

Thank you
