How to load a product with a different settings.xml file

How SWF and XMLs interact

 

The product's SWF file loads by default the settings.xml file which contains all the parameters of the component. You can rename this file but you have to specify the new name using the following code:

var flashvars = {};
flashvars.settingsXML = "your_name.xml";

like in this example for the 3D Banner FX:

<div id="Div3DBannerFX"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
 var flashvars = {};
 flashvars.settingsXML = "your_name.xml";
 var params = {};
 params.base = "";
 params.scale = "noscale";
 params.salign = "tl";
 params.wmode = "transparent";
 params.allowFullScreen = "true";
 params.allowScriptAccess = "always";
 swfobject.embedSWF("3DBannerFX.swf", "Div3DBannerFX", "600", "374", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params);
</script>

 

The assets (images, videos, text etc.) displayed by the product are specified in the images.xml (or menu.xml, videos.xml, big.xmlmedia.xml for other products). You can also rename this file but you have to specify in the settings.xml file through assets element what's the new name, like this example:

assets value="your_name_images.xml"

The Banner Rotator FX, Dock Menu FX and 3D Carousel Menu AS2 FX has imagesXML instead of assets element in the settings.xml file. The Video Player FX has media_url.

Good afternoon. Sorry for my English.
I downloaded and installed banner-rotator on site, and then changed the picture and settings.xml yet nothing has changed. I was cleaning my browser cache but it did not help. I just added more pictures, but still shows only 6

Hi,
I tried to use that *.swf file via Serif Webplus X6, but unfortunately, that doesn’t work at all.
Actually, I use the “insert flash swf file function” provided by Serif Webplus but only the linked to “flashxml” works.
I tried many option combination, but none solve the issue.
FYI : the swf works well when I use the “index.htlm” file you provide, but I would like integrate the *.swf into my Webplus project.

Thank in advance for your feedback

Hi. We are not familiar with Serif Webplus X6 . Try to read Webplus documentation.

hello

how can i integrate DockGalleryFX into my system with dynamic count of galleries and dynamic content images each?

for example, specific page opens with /page.php?id=1 and so on
so, i can assign a php file as settingsXML and transfer page id as get attribute like this flashvars.settingsXML = “settings.php?id=1”;
but this only changes location of ./settings.xml file, DockMenuFX/settings.xml, right?
but changing <imagesXML value=“thumbs.xml”/> takes effect in second file only, right?
so, how do i replace thumbs.xml with php file?
and is there a way to replace big.xml at all?

if i could use some flashparams like thumbsXML & bigXML, it would solve my problem
sorry, but i couldnt find such issue in faq nor comments. i couldnt found documentation with all existing setting elements at all

FlashXML Support

Hi. Unfortunately this feature is not supported. You can try to generate the big.xml and thumbs.xml files with a php script and after that to load the swf, and make sure that the xml files are not cached
