That said, you’re not going to use DreamWeaver to fix this problem. All you need to do is correctly change the entries in the XML file to place the new images into the player.

Basically, in your XML file is a repeated set of nodes, each of which indicate a new image. It looks either something like this:

<image>
<url>/images/mypic.jpg</url>
<title>My Pic</title>
<description>This is a picture of me.</description>
</image>

Or like this:

<image url="/images/mypic.jpg" title="My Pic" description="This is a picture of me." />

Or some combination of the two. Each series of these entries represents a banner. Your job is to amend the XML file to reflect the proper data for the banner images / info you have on hand.

I can’t explain how to do that in this medium. I can point you to this, which may help you understand what you are looking at and how to change it:

A few days ago I downloaded a simple rotating banner. There are three main files;

banner.swf
swfobject.js
banner.xml

I am a complete novice at javascript and I am currently learning web development on dreamweaver, when I got the banner it is very well laid out, neat file structure etc with 3 picture files to go with it.

What I cant seem to get my head around is that I bought this banner on flashden.net, I never expected it to become this much of a problem to implement. I have posted various questions over the last few days but none have hit the nail on the head and its still not displaying images.

After looking in the XML file I saw the images were linked there, so I gather this is where the problem is stemming from. These are the most sucessful steps I have taken so far:

New document – Insert Media Object (result is test.xhtml and swfobject_modified.js).

When I preview this in my browser, I can see the stage for flash, but no interactivity, so thats half the battle.

I cant for the life of me figure out how to add the .xml file to my flash object, I have tried <script></script> but there is no text/type that says xml. There has to be some way to make this work, I know im probably being a nab and missing something huge thats right under my nose, but I;m at a loss

Thanks for your help

p.s: If you could try and relate the answers to dreamweaver as much as possible I would appreciate it, thanks again
here is a screenie of the code;

Again, not really sure what to do with XML, the src links to the images are all in the correct locations.
Oh also, the file came with a sample web page to show how it should look live, that works, I have copied the source code and javascript from that, pasted it to a new html document, amended the links (or all that I can make out) to point to my document and it doesnt work, not sure if that helps at all
