Topic: Problems getting viewer to work in my HTML

Hi guys,

Can I firstly say what a great programme Simpleviewer is...thanks!

Unfortunately, after successfully using Picasa to make my first gallery, I now can't get the viewer to work in my html.

I've looked through the FAQs and followed them as best I can without success also.

As such, can anyone help.

The page I'm trying to get to work first is:

http://www.gersnet.net/fmrangers/tbonew … ytest.html

As you can see the flash gets as far as loading XML Data and that's it.  No further either locally or when I upload.

Any help would be much appreciated as I'd love to get this working.

Cheers

You are missing the XML file. Try uploading the entire SimpleViewer folder.

Re: Problems getting viewer to work in my HTML

Thanks for your answer Felix...

I thought it would be much better to have separate folders for my gallery and be able to link to the stuff from there.

It''s not really practical to have my gallery images in the same folder as my main site images.

Is it possible to have the viewer thumbnails and images elsewhere in my installation and link to them?

Re: Problems getting viewer to work in my HTML

I believe you could...

You need to references it correctly in the html file...

<param name=FlashVars value="xmlDataPath=http&#58;//www.knguyentu.com/pictures/fritz20050228/imageData.xml">

And in the XML file, use http location of your images...
