Getting Flash Image Rotator to work

[linnx]

You can also just insert the code into the editor for the main page (define pages editor if memory serves). You can see what I have done at www.ecigexpress.com

If you need more info let me know. I'm not exactly sure if that was what you had in mind.

In the Admin, go to Tools then define pages editor. Select define_main_page.php from the dropdown list. Then you have two views to work with. One is WYSIWYG - you can change it to code view by clicking <>; Insert your code within the code view and save. See what it looks like.

Thanks for the response, very helpful to know someone else has got something close to this working! Problem is that is seems more complicated than this. The very first thing I tried was just pasting the main code right into the define_main_page.php but this resulted in a blank page. As far as I can tell in thr resulting code, everything is setup the same way as it is in the working example it just doesn't show up. Can you tell me what script you are using, how you set the folders up in the directory, and more about the code you were just able to paste into the main page and get working?

linxx,

could you pls describe what you put in the main page through define page editor?
the flash in your website is awesome!

Sure... This is what is in mine. If you need more help you can pm me your yahoo messenger or AOL messenger and I can try to get you through it like that.

Also, I am using a third party flash maker. So the code that yours gives you looks different.
