    I have an interesting problem...
    NOTE: (IF YOU LOOK AT THE WEBSITE THE SLIDE SHOW IS UNDER THE "REMOLDELING" BUTTON.)

    I just discovered that if someone goes to my site using http://www.graniellobuilders.com the slide show Does Not appear.
    If you drop the www and use http://graniellobuilders.com then all is well and the slide show plays normally.

    Could this be an .htaccess issue, or is there a way for me to correct this in the slide show itself?

    You unnecessarily use a full path rather than a relative path when calling monoslideshow. If you change that, it should work immediately.

    I have tryed every combination I can think of and still, No Go.
    It is only when you type www that it does not work.

    <strong>My directory structure is setup as follows...</strong>

    slideshow
    slideshow/index.html
    slideshow/monoslideshow.swf
    slideshow/swfobject.js

    html
    html/monoslideshow.xml

    <strong>My index.html looks like this...</strong>

    <code><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />

    <script type="text/javascript" src="slideshow/swfobject.js"></script>
    <script src="slideshow/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    </head>

    <body>
    <div id="mssHolder">
    <p>Temporary holder for the Flash® object</p>
    </div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("slideshow/monoslideshow.swf", "mss", "400", "261", "7", "#ffffff");
    so.addVariable("dataFile", "monoslideshow.xml");
    so.addVariable("showLogo", "false");
    so.addVariable("showVersionInfo", "false");
    so.write("mssHolder");
    </script>

    </body>
    </html>
    </code>

    <strong>my xml file looks like this...</strong>

    <code>

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    one cannot check out your source text directly on the test site, but Firebug tells me nothing has changed in the live environment, especially I don't see the parameters you pass to mss at all.
    So, do away with the need for parameters, forget tidyness and put the xml (or a copy) exactly where the calling html is.Delete the dataFile parameter, and that should do the job.
    Or, try simple html which, when "viewed source" in a Browser, looks like what you posted, and debugging will be much easier. You can change back to your preferred way afterwards if the remedy has been found.

    For anyone else who may have this problem, this is how I fixed it...

    Create a simple .htaccess file and place it in your home directory.

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.yourdomain\.com$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^.*$ http://yourdomain.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

    Thanks
