Slideshow as Component set up issue.

Hello.. I am trying to get the slideshow as a component example1 working on my server. I already have the regular Imagevue gallery working nicely and wanted to try the slideshow as component feature.

the URL is: http://runwaynews.com/gallery/pagecompo ... mple1.html

It looks like its loading.. then nothing. I created a folder called 'pagecomponent' on the web server and uploaded what was in 'pagecomponent.zip' taken from the ImageVue page describing components. The normal imagevue root directory files were also placed inside 'pagecomponent'

My HTML is:
Code
<DOCTYPE>
<html>
<head>
<script></script>
<title>Slideshow Pagecomponent Example</title>
</head>

<body>
	<div id="slideshow">
		Slideshow module here
	</div>
	<script>
		var so = new SWFObject("slideshow.swf", "mymenu", "400", "225", "7", "#FFFFFF");
		so.addVariable('globalpath','demoimages/');
		so.addVariable('autoscale','false');
		so.addVariable('minmargin','0');
		so.addVariable('startimage','false');
		so.addVariable('backimage','false');
		so.addVariable('framewidth','false');
		so.addVariable('framecol','000000');
		so.addVariable('innerframewidth','false');
		so.addVariable('frameshadow', 'false');
		so.addVariable('transition', 'fade');
		so.addVariable('sfx', 'false');
		so.addVariable('audio', 'false');
		so.addVariable('showmaincontrols', 'false');
		so.addVariable('altcontrols', 'false');
		so.addVariable('imagepopinfo', 'false');
		so.addVariable('showpreloader', 'false');
		so.addVariable('showaltpreloader', 'false');
		so.addVariable('showtimer', 'false');
		so.addVariable('displayimageindex', 'false');
		so.addVariable('displayname', 'false');
		so.write("slideshow");
	</script>

</body>
</html>
Any Ideas would be helpful. Might I have a path issue?

Thanks
Anthony

I think you may have misunderstood the path and globalpath settings. You have:
Code
so.addVariable('globalpath','demoimages/');
globalpath should be the path to an imagevue root folder with all the script files(This setting is not required if the document is actually inside the imagevue root folder). Perhaps you are meaning for 'demoimages' to be the path for the images? Then it would be:
Code
so.addVariable('path','demoimages/');
However, to me it seems like this entire folder does not even exist:
http://runwaynews.com/gallery/pagecomponent/demoimages/

I can understand your frustration as it's easy to stumble with all the settings and paths.
