How to load a product with a different settings.xml file
The SWF file loads at start the settings.xml file which contains all the parameters of the component. You can customize these parameters on the Live Demo of the component (the demo with controls) and then click on the “Generate settings.xml” button. You can overwrite this generated content over the contents of the existing (default) settings.xml file.
The filename of the settings.xml file can be modified through FlashVars:
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.settingsXML = "your_filename.xml";
like in this example:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars = {};
flashvars.settingsXML= "your_filename.xml";
var params = {};
params.scale = "noscale";
params.salign = "tl";
params.wmode = "transparent";
var attributes = {};
swfobject.embedSWF("ComponentNameFX.swf", "ComponentNameDiv", "600", "300", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes);
In the images.xml file (the name of the file can be modified inside the settings.xml file) you can add as many images as you want to the component. There is no parameter to specify a total number of images which a component will use, and this number will be calculated from the number of rows added in the images.xml file.
Each row represents a new image, and for each image you can specify things like:
- image - the path of the image
- url - the address to go to when clicking the image
- target - “_self” opens the url in the same browser page, ” _blank” opens the url in a new browser page
The attributes list may differ from one component to another. You will usually have all the particularities each component’s image can support.

Hi,
Please provide a link to the webpage where you are testing our component to be able to understand what’s not working in the embedding code.

Posted 4 days agoI just wanted to let you know that it is possible and exists and I really hope that these galleries get the ability to auto scan folders for images and set the folder path in the embed code.
Here are 2 examples of other flash galleries that have this functionality:
http://flashnifties.com/products/auto-flash-gallery/
http://www.flash-gallery.org/
Too bad they’re no-where near as beautiful as Flash XML galleries.
Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion and your examples. We’ll think of this option in a future update.

Posted 4 days agoHow can I tell the gallery to use every image in a folder without having to specify each image in the xml file?
Is it possible tell the gallery which folder to use in the html embed code?
I need these functions.
Hi,
Unfortunately the feature you want is not implemented. You have to edit the required XML file to add your own images. There’s no other way.

Posted 11 days agoI am using Banner Rotator, I am able to customize everything to my need, however is there a way to remove Flashxml logo on top left of flash?

Hi,
The logo appears on the free version of our Flash products. You have to purchase the component and the replace the main swf with the one provided in the commercial package. Please read this article.
