It certainly is possible, but we don't have the time to make examples of public documents for this before we have the opportunity to experiment with this ourselves. You may find this topic helpful:

Hi, i hope you could spare some time to take a look and see where im going wrong. i have the V2 files in the root of my webspace which is "jonnorman89.freehostia.com" and the html file is in the root as well. ive used this code but keep getting a blanc screen. at the moment im really struggling to work out what im doing wrong.

here is the code im using at the moment.

webpage is http://jonnorman.freehostia.com/test.html

I think your main issue, is that you simply need quotes:

swfobject.embedSWF("imagevue/imagevue/imagevue.swf" ...

.. where in your code it is ...

swfobject.embedSWF(imagevue/imagevue/imagevue.swf

Also, you need to remove the globalpath settings since your index.html does not require it.

woops, well you have other faults also in the path itself(I am not sure how I overlooked that first time).

"imagevue/imagevue/imagevue.swf"

Now thats not a valid file is it? Should it be something like:

"imagevue/imagevue2.swf"

hi again,

ive made the amendments you gave me and im getting the same grey box (grey being the background colour) though i have noticed the status bar saying waiting for ...... and the address so it might be trying to load something but its still not loading the gallery!! any more ideas?

take a look http://jonnorman.freehostia.com/test.html

the code is now

hi again, ive found the issue, seem that i missed typed one of the loctions. with that aside when i open the page it goes through the lodaing bar and appears to load the gallery but then nuthing actually appears after that, ii was wondering if there was something that needed to be changed in any other config files????

Posted: **03 Sep 2008, 13:12**

It stops here:

http://jonnorman.freehostia.com/imagevu ... ground.gif

404 Not found.

Posted: **03 Sep 2008, 13:36**

cheers, ive just downloaded the new v2 release so i will get all this working tonight hopefuly.

out of interest how did you find out where it stopped? also do all of the orignal theme files need to be there even if they are not in use??

cheers jon

http://www.getfirebug.com/ - it can list all calls to server and results, so you can easily spot 404

About files - it reads theme config, theme says - use this background, and then flash can't load it. You need to either use original files or edit theme I think

cheers ill take a look, sorry to be so relient on you guys but this is all new stuff to me, but thanks a million for all the help youve given,

ill keep posting here until i get it working

Posted: **04 Sep 2008, 05:19**

Ok folks ive got this working now, so when i go the the html page it will load up the gallery where ever i decided to put it at the desired size.

The only other slight wish i would like to make possible now would be so that if i imbed on multiple pages is there anyway i can have a different start folder for each page???

Posted: **04 Sep 2008, 11:51**

Yes, you can make separate startfolder. You need to simply add it in flashvars in your document

flashVars.startpath = 'content/folder/imagefolder/';
