Topic: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

Not sure what I am doing wrong I checked the uploaded folders and made sure swfobject.js is in the autoviewer folder where all the other files are located.

The website is blueriverbullies com

An example when you click on www blueriverbullies com/heff.html and select photos the page pops up with the following error:
AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player. Get Flash here.

Re: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

The problem with the index file at:
.../photos/produced/simpleviewer/index.html
seems to be that it has no line breaks and the JavaScript in the page doesn't seem to like it.  As soon as I reformatted the page (using line feed & carriage return as line breaks) the viewer loaded fine.
I've uploaded the reformatted page to:
http://www.box.net/shared/q9gxddlhji
The only other alteration I've made to the page was to add a DOCTYPE declaration (XHTML 1.0 Transitional) at the beginning of the document.
Pop some line breaks into the Autoviewer index file and hopefully, that'll work, too.

Re: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

I downloaded the file you provided and replaced the old index html file.

If you check it I get a blank page
www blueriverbullies com/Males/heff/images/autoviewer/index.html

I am lost......not sure what I am doing wrong.

Re: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

The file was to replace:
www blueriverbullies com/photos/produced/simpleviewer/index.html
not:
www blueriverbullies com/Males/heff/images/autoviewer/index.html
Try replacing the SimpleViewer index.html page with my version.
If you re-upload the original non-working AutoViewer index page, I'll take a look at that one for you, too.

Re: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

Here's the reformatted page for the AutoViewer gallery:
http://www.box.net/shared/qaf19ksakm

As with the other file, all I've done is add line breaks and a DOCTYPE declaration and the gallery now works (locally on my PC).

Re: Error: AutoViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player.

The problem with the gallery at:
www blueriverbullies com/photos/actionshots/autoviewer/index.html
seems to be with the autoviewer.swf file.
As soon as I swapped your autoviewer.swf file (in a local gallery) with my own, the gallery worked.
Try uploading autoviewer.swf again.
You're not using Fetch by any chance are you?  Fetch and swf files didn't always get along in the past (don't know how things are with more recent versions).
If you are using Fetch, try using another FTP program, such as Filezilla, to upload your swf files.
