Topic: Another "SimpleViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player"

Hi all,

I have been looking for the solution for a few hours already and I still dont know what's wrong with my SimpleViewer.

I did everything I could based on the installation and use guide, and then trying to add my first gallery and i got the message that it requires Javascript and Flash Player..

If anyone could help and see what's wrong, I'd be grateful. The link is http://strokecast.org/exercise-modules/level-1/

Thanks in advance.

Re: Another "SimpleViewer requires JavaScript and the Flash Player"

It looks like your theme is inserting <p> and </p> tags in your gallery's JavaScript embedding code which will break it.
Your embedding code currently looks like this:

<p><script type="text/javascript">
var flashvars2 = {};
flashvars2.galleryURL = "http://strokecast.org/wp-content/uploads/2.xml";</p>
<p>simpleviewer.ready(function () {
    simpleviewer.load("flashContent2", "600px", "600px", "ffffff", true, flashvars2);
});</p>
<p></script></p>

Try temporarily reverting to the WordPress default theme and then view your gallery. If it displays OK, then the cause of the problem is the theme. With this knowledge, you can investigate further to try to figure out why the theme automatically inserts <p></p> tags and how to prevent it from happening.
