Hello all.
I just bought this incredible slideshow - but as it said - hundreds of combinations, or something like that - I thought I could change everything. But I cant see how to change the name of the XML-file, 'monoslideshow.xml'. The thing is, my side is dynamic, and therefore I wish to make the XMl-file dynamic as well. I script in ASP so to do that, my xml-file must have the ending ASP, otherwise my server wont recognise it as asp code, and I get no where. Please help me. I need to rename the file to 'monoslideshow.ASP' and the flash file should then still be able to find the file.
Best Regards.
Stefan
you can find this option in the manual of monoslideshow
here's the way to include your script:
where you have put the code for showing the mss, it appears like so:
<code><script type="text/javascript">
var so = new SWFObject("html/monoslideshow.swf", "mss", "680", "350", "7", "#666666");
so.write("mssHolder");
</script></code>
add :
<code>so.addVariable ("dataFile", "url_of_your_asp_file");</code>
just after the:
<code>var so = new SWFObject("html/monoslideshow.swf", "mss", "680", "350", "7", "#666666");</code>
good luck,
KL
Using the insert Flash movie feature of Dreamweaver, I finally managed to not show the logo. However, changing the name of the xml file has me baffled. Here's my code and I've put in the 'datafile=' satement everywhere I could think of. Any help?

Most likely it is more a path problem than a problem with the name of the xml.
Check out the "base" parameter as well.

Just to make things easier, I have used the code from google to show the movie. The movie works fine. The startup logo is gone. But even with the six lines of params, the slideshow still goes to monoslideshow.xml
Help! Thanks.

Tony,
I couldn't believe it and tried it myself. Whatever I tried, it did not work. If you aim at using more than one xml (and that is most likely the reason you want to use a custom name), I recommend using the base parameter, which works. An example from the code I use:
<code>
<div id="main">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="491" height="328" id="viewport">
<param name="movie" value="../js/monoslideshow.swf" />
<param name="base" value="2008_12/" />
<param name="flashvars" value="showLogo=false" />
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="../js/monoslideshow.swf" width="491" height="328">
<param name="base" value="2008_12/" />
<param name="flashvars" value="showLogo=false" />

I put multiple xmls in different directories together with the images. So, your problem isn't solved (it looks like a bug to me), but maybe it is a workaround?
You see also that I use MSS on many pages of my website, but have it just once in a directory called "js".

Thanks Christoph, this is just a hobby for me... thank goodness I have a day job.
