Topic: How to embed Compact Simple Viewer into DreamWeaver pag? Please help!

I am trying to embed a compact SimpleViewer into an existing DreamWeaver page, am pulling my hair out!  I'm using DreamWeaver CS3 on a Mac OSX. 

This is a site I'm building for a client, currently it resides in a 'test' folder until approved.  Even though I love the look and feel of SV, I am about to give up.  Please help.  The instructions in the 'SV Embed in DreamWeaver' page seem simple but don't seem to work.

The first is the original, which I believe is wrong.  The second is the revised one which should work (AlbumTest in root folder points to SV Folder) – but only the ShockWave splash page loads.  The third I tried to put the AlbumTest2 page in the same folder as the gallery & swf files; no luck.

I solved my own problem!!! with the help of 'MonkeyBoy' at 'Jalbum.net/forum'...  Thanks MonkeyBoy!!!

when you insert the div ID = 'flashcontent' I simply needed to rename that default div ID to the one I built the site with, e.g.; <div id = "mainContent">  Then it began to work immediately!

I also had to enter the absolute URL for everything (including the XML) to make it work.  Now, hopefully, smooth sailing.  Checked in Safari and Firefox, not IE yet but fingers crossed.
