    Hi there,


    Great product. Questions:


    1) I can add links to the text and they launch fine, but if i would like the background image to also be clickable and the url attribute does not seem to work for me consistently (i.e. if I do a lot of clicks the url may open up a window).


    2) How can I get the rotator to stop after cycling through all the images (Or say cycle through them three times and then stop?)

  2. Hi,


    1. The background of the text doesn’t listens for mouse events. So if you click on the image an not on the background of the text, it should work (open the link of the image).


    2. Sorry this feature is not implemented.

    Is there a way to control the speed of the transition element?

  4. Hi,


    From your settings.xml file set the value of autoTiming to false (in generalOptions).
    Then in the images.xml file for each image set a value for the duration attribute.

    Thanks for a great product! I only have one question. I have the banner displayed on a page where there is a DHTML Flyout Menu next to it. When the menu flyouts occur they show up behind the banner instead of overtop of the banner. Can you tell me how to fix that?

    Hi


    I have some issues, and i tried the solutions you gave to other user’s issues, but they don´t seem to work, so i would please to get an answer.


    In Internet explorer, transitions & effects dont work sometimes


    In IE and FIrefox, there is a big issue with fullscreen, both via ESC via the button, when i try to close fullscreen, there opens the image without controls, and the only way to get back is clicking on the image and pressing ESC many times.

  12. Hi,


    If you open this page in IE the transitions and effects are working?


    The last issue is a browser problem because it seems that when you embed the banner.swf file in a html file it doesn’t catch the event when you press the ESC button.

    Hello! I have been trying to get the Banner Rotator to work on my site.


    For reference, the files are located here:
    http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/banner.swf
    http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/settings.xml
    http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/images.xml
    http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/header_template_01.html
    http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/style.css


    As you can see on the header_template_01.html file, everything works fine. However, when I try to copy the code here and place it into our content management system for the header of the site, it does not work. For reference, the site is www.primusgolf.com.


    I’ve tried adding:
    flashvars.folderPath = “http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/”;
    flashvars.settingsXML = “http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/settings.xml”;


    to the code, but it still will not work. Looking at the html I’ve supplied, how exactly am I supposed to define an absolute value for the xml path?


    The code I’m using is below:


    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/swfobject.js"></script> 
    <script type="text/javascript"> 
    var flashvars = {}; 
    flashvars.folderPath = "http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/"; 
    flashvars.settingsXML = "http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/settings.xml"; 
    var params = {}; 
    params.scale = "noscale"; 
    params.salign = "tl"; 
    params.wmode = "transparent"; 
    var attributes = {}; 
    swfobject.embedSWF("http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/banner.swf", "FlashCute", "400", "200", "9.0.0", false, flashvars, params, attributes); 
    </script>

    Nevermind! The content management system I was liking hates javascript, so I defined the parameters via html. I love the world again, and you for making this thing! :)

    Well, the flash displays perfectly in Firefox, but not in explorer. Help!

  16. Hi,


    Try to set the folderPath like this:


    <param name="flashvars" value="folderPath=http://r.b5z.net/i/u/10059548/i/banner/" /><param name="flashvars" value="settingsXML = settings.xml" />


    If you set the folderPath (the path to your assets) there won’t be necessary to set the path for the settings.xml file.

    Yes, I had to make all paths absolutely defined in order for it to work in chrome. I’m still at a loss about IE.

  21. Hi,


    Try for the IE a special case.
    For the others browsers make the embedding static (<object></object>) and for IE dynamic (using swfobject).

    hello , baught the banner rotator, when i put it inside my flash file, all the website would be aligned to the left!! how do i keep it aligned all to the middle? thanks

    Posted 2 weeks ago #
  23. Hi,


    Create a new file in your project folder and call it style2.css.
    In the html file that embeds the swf (index.html or index.php) you need to
    write the following line:

    <link href="style2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    Next open the style2.css file that you created previously and try to write the
    following lines in this file:
     body 
    { text-align:center; 
    } 
    BannerDiv 
    { margin:0 auto; padding:0; 
    }

    Snowcat,


    This banner is amazing. Very nice job!


    Question – Is is possible to make just an image linkable, leaving the rest of the banner and text un-linked? I’m currently using this in my XML, and only want the user to be able to click the image:


    <photo image=“images/01.png” url=“page.html” target=”_self” duration=“2”>
    <![CDATA[<head>Some Text</head><body>Some more text.</body>]]></photo>


    Thanks!
