Hey everyone. Been a while since I have asked a question in this forum. I downloaded the featured slideshow from
The problem I am having is getting it to show more than one picture. Here is what I have:

images1/aqua_1a.jpg,aqua_3a.jpg

If I just leave it at aqua_1a.jpg it will show that picture. The minute I add one it comes up with this error:

Error opening URL "file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Dad/Desktop/ccadventureracing/images1/aqua_1a.jpg,aqua_3a.jpg"

Is it the seperator between the two file names. I have tried all kinds. What is wrong. Please advise. Thank you.

No, it is from .com and you only have to pay if you are going to use it commerically. I not going to do that. This is for a project at home. I am teaching my son how to set up a flash website and he wanted to put a slideshow up with it. It is a Summer project for a summer class he is doing at a technology school.

OOPS, it is Now I know why you asked. I went to flashcomponents.com and saw it was a pay site.

If you go to flashcomponents.net you will see it listed as the third featured item. I still cannot get it to work with more than one picture. HELP. Thank you.

Thank you. I figured it out about an hour ago. Yes, I needed to load an XML. I had downloaded the .MXP then realized that it needed something to reference. It is working great now. If you want to check it out, go to Gallery is on the lower right side. Put the site up this week. It also worked great for my son's project. He will find out tomorrow on his grade when he presents it. It is a AP class for Technology. Boy, kids sure have it nice now.

yes looks good

one thing i do like about the component is the way it resizes itself

im sure you wont but dont use the .com site.

the .net has much better components and all are free.
