css + Flash Gallery

[redice]

Hi,

I have a css website into which I am trying to integrate a flash gallery but I am running into a problem.

http://www.maraconservancy.com/gallery.html

The flash gallery doesnt seem to load and if it does its taking too long(i think its a problem with flash detection) Kindly guide me
On my computer it does work but the flash movie loads with a rather small aspect as compared to what I have made and the background doesnt match my websites background colour.

Your assistance will be highly appreciated

Regards

Your moo fx module (js/moo.fx.pack.js) is broken. The gallery (which should be independent of that) seems to load up fast enough, but doesn't seem to do anything. It either hasn't fully loaded, or just has no content. I loaded the flash gallery just by itself in one browser, but that didn't make it do any better.

wow... silly me didnt upload the xml file and the images :-s :OINK::
Done that now, and it will give a better understanding of my problem. Also could someone kindly let me know how I may center the flash video as I have been unable to do that too :-s

Thanks

Now the gallery loads up fine and works fine. Only two pictures though. Except in IE 7, it doesn't load (I have a lower version of Flash in that browser, could be the reason). You still have the same moo fx error from before. To center it use these styles in place of the current headerimage styles:

#headerimage {
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
margin:0 auto;
}

Thank you sir.
Managed to center it, but my flash movie is still smaller and surrounded by the white are :-s

The "white area" is your Flash Stage. I am guessing you are loading the images into a blank movie clip?

I am willing to bet your setStage sizes are wrong in your ActionScript.

[redice]

my flash stage is 400x400 and the action script is set to resize the images within the 400x400 stage. It loads pretty well here

but just not within the webpage.

Then you have some other boundaries on the div on the webpage. I haven't trolled through all the different JS files you have, but double check the ht. and width of the div and any div related restrictions for the swf file.

The Flash works fine, so I can surmise it is either JS or HTML related problem.

Good Luck

Yes, the Flash file works well in the full browser window. However the images in the gallery are set to be a percentage of the overall gallery size. Once you get the gallery onto the page, you have set its dimensions to 400 x 400, that's like viewing the gallery in a full browser window of only 400 x 400.

If the gallery were to be coded slightly differently, it could possibly have the images take up more of the 400 x 400 space than it currently does.

hi,

i finally got the images to load fully, but abit of my gallery is cut off from the left by about 9-12 pixels. Any ideas why?


Thanks in advance
