Topic: Does Pro support "footer" still?

Generating albums with Porta I used to get a footer in this way:

fo.addVariable("footer", "my footer");

Since Swfobject.js v2 the method has changed to :

var flashvars = {};
flashvars.footer = "my footer";

However, I no longer get a footer displayed. Question therefore is

Is this the correct translation for addVariable or is it that Simpleviewer 2 pro no longer supports a footer?

Re: Does Pro support "footer" still?

Hi,

Porta is not currently compatible with SimpleViewer v2.0. To use footers with Porta you will need to use SimpleViewer v1.9.

Understood but Porta is only a generation engine so I still use it for SV2 - just need to change the calling method and the gallery.xml tag for images from <name> to <filename>

However, the question relates to the variable for the footer (nothing really to do with Porta), but more to do with the version 2.2 of swfobject

So really I'm asking if if sv 2.0 supports the footer variable as 1.9 did and when using swfobject version < 2 I'd achieve it like this:

fo.addVariable("footer", "my footer");

how do I pass this variable to simpleviewer using the new method?
