    Hello,

    I'm stuck with this implementation problem and with the popularity of Lightroom, I'm hoping someone has already done it or have a clue of what i should do next.

    here's the story:
    - adobe lightroom generates a flash gallery that contains "/resources/AC_RunActiveContent.js" script, "/resources/gallery.swf" file and "/resources/playerProductInstall.swf" -- among other things
    - i'd like to access those objects and embed them in my drupal-based website
    - i installed and enabled swfobject module in my drupal-based website

    so, I tried using the example given after updating the file paths accordingly, but it's still not working.
    It just gave me a blank page.

    Am I missing something here? is lightroom-generated js+swf not quite compatible with this module?

    thank you very much!

    Easiest thing to do is post the page so we can see what is actually happening.

    your HTML file is missing the reference to the SWFObject external JS file.

    add the script to the <head> of your page

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

    be sure to upload the script, too...

    OK, I just did it (I put the swfobject.js inside the drupal's "modules/swftools/shared/swfobject" directory) -- so my html in the drupal content is as follows:

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

    <div id="flashcontent">
    This text is replaced by the Flash movie.
    </div>

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var so = new SWFObject("/files/mpage/resources/gallery.swf", "mymovie", "730", "480", "8", "#336699");
    so.write("flashcontent");
    </script>

    btw, lightroom gives me this stuff (for flash image slideshow) that I uploaded into my Drupal's "/files" directory:
    >bin
    >images
    [all the jpg files]

    >resources
    >javascript
    AC_RunActiveContent.js
    >localization
    localText.xml
    >mediagroupdata
    group.xml
    >styles
    style.xml
    gallery.swf
    playerProductInstall.swf

    index.html

    Also, in Drupal's setting for SWFTools, the method is set to SWFObject for All Pages.

    thanks a lot

    is it working for you? (i don't use drupal, so i don't know how their 'modules' system is set up)

    if not, make sure your filepath is set correctly... if swfobject.js is inside another folder ("modules/swftools/shared/swfobject"), your filepath would normally become:

    <script type="text/javascript" src="/modules/swftools/shared/swfobject/swfobject.js" ></script>

    (this assuming "modules" is at the root level of your site)

    @will

    The page seems to show the slideshow correctly for me now.

    You are still 404'ing (not found) on a few files on the test page though:

    http://www.whpix.com/main/themes/niftyCorners/niftyCorners.css
    http://www.whpix.com/flashvars.xml

    I am unsure if these are required etc.

    Oh.

    I just noticed that you have some bad markup in your page which should be fixed. You have extra <head> and <body> tags and the swfobject.js is not properly in the <head> area:

    After you define all your proper <head> info and are starting to define your body content, you get to this block:

    <h1 class="title">wip</h1>
    <div class="tabs"></div>

    <div class="node">
    <div class="nodecontent"><span class="taxonomy"></span>
    <div class="submitted"></div>
    <div class="content"><p><head></p>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js" ></script><p></head></p>
    <p><body> </p>

    See how you open another <head> and <body> tag and have the swfobejct javascript definition in the "fake" head tag? This needs to be fixed.
