Wordpress Themes - WP Forum at BFA
There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021

Getting Flash Gallery to display in body

Getting Flash Gallery to display in body

I have been at this for 2 days and still have only limited and intermittent success. I am trying to embed a flash photo galley in my site: http://www.euroboley.com/blog/

Here is the code I am using :
<code><div id="contentflash"><object width="660" height="560" data="http://euroboley.com/flash/Basel/JetPhotoView.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="src" value="http://euroboley.com/flash/Basel/JetPhotoView.swf" /></object></div></code>

What is strange is that sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I have tried the Kimili plugin with no help there.

If you check out http://www.jetphotosoft.com/blog/ you will see a perfect example of what I am trying to do. Unfortunately their explanation is non-existent as to how to make this work.

I will add that I get the following an error messages in the activity window when I try to preview:
http://www.euroboley.com/blog/imagelist.xml (not found)
http://www.euroboley.com/blog/undefined/imagelist.xml (not found)


Of course these files are not found in these locations because that is not where they are, but for some reason it keeps expecting them to be there.

Everything is the same between the ones that work and the ones that don't, except the path to the sfw file. And I know the path is correct because it opens fine in a new window if I type the path in the address bar.

Please help!!!!

Thanks,

Steve

What browser are you using? (and what version of WP and Atahualpa)

I just took a look using Safari on a mac and it seems to be working fine

As I mentioned in my post, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have about 10 galleries I want to post but so far only 2 have worked.

I am using Latest version Safari on Mac 10.5.7

Current Theme is Atahualpa 3.3.2

Word Press 2.7.1

I am wondering if I could add some script to help point to the imagelist.xml file that flash player is looking for. THe problem seems to be that it is not being found. It resides in the same folder as the .swf file so this SHOULDN'T be happening, but it is.

1) have you tried it with the default theme
2) have you made sure the other galleries work - i.e. open a window and enter http://euroboley.com/flash/xxxxx/JetPhotoView.swf where xxxxx is the gallery

boy JetPhotoView does have spotty documentation and I would think that after an announcement of a new feature, they would tell you how to use it. They don't even seem to respond to the comments on their blog.

The gallery DOES work when you enter just the URL (path).

Yes, virtually non-existent documentation.

Still can't get this to work.

I may have to abandon this theme
