    I would appreciate help with an installation issue. I'm trying to get a very simple configuration to work -- something similar to the example supplied with the download. The slide show seems to start, but immediately after the start-up logo, it stops with the following error message:

    SOMETHING WENT WRONG
    "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml::head" is not a valid tag for album
    "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml::body" is not a valid tag for album
    "http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace::lang" is not a valid attribute for album
    "lang" is not a valid attribute for album
    "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml::head" is undefined for album
    "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml::body" is undefined for album
    slideshow doesn't contain any items

    I'm using Expression Engine. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    It looks like you put html into the xml file, but without seeing your files, it is difficult to assist.

    Thank you, Jarredja, for your response.

    My xml file is essentially the same as the example file that came with the download.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <album thumbnail="albumThumbnail.jpg" itemPath="images" thumbnailPath="thumbnails"> <configuration> <transition kenBurnsMode="randomZoomIn" /> </configuration> <contents> <image source="slide1.jpg" title="title 1" description="description 1" /> <image source="slide2.jpg" title="title 2" description="description 2" /> </contents> </album>

    I think Jarredja's idea is correct: What you tell monoslideshow to use as xml obviously isn't what you intend it to use.
    Please post your html or a link.

    The problem solved!

    I found that with CMS such as Expression Engine, the full path of the "monoslideshow.xml" file must be specified. So the following flashvars needs to be passed to the script:

    var flashvars = {dataFile: "Your_Path_to/monoslideshow.xml"};
