Hi,

I used this code before to make a dynamic xml, and it worked. however, it's not working now.

XML FILE:

<?php header('Content-type: application/xml; charset=utf-8'); echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>';

require_once "C:/xampp/htdocs/jubileehigh/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";
?>
<gallery>
<album title="Slide Show" description="Slide Show" lgpath="http://localhost/jubileehigh/cmsAdmin/uploads/" tnpath="http://localhost/jubileehigh/cmsAdmin/uploads/thumb/">
<?php
$uploads = getUploads('index', 'slideShow', $_GET['recordNum']);
foreach ($uploads as $upload)
{
?>
<img src="<?php echo ($upload['filename']); ?>"
title="<?php echo ($upload['info1']); ?>"
caption="<?php echo($upload['info1']); ?>"
link="<?php echo $upload['urlPath']; ?>"
alt="<?php echo $upload['info1']; ?>"
target="_blank"
pause="" />
<?php
}
?>
</album>
</gallery>

SLIDESHOW PAGE:

<?php
$slideShowXML = 'http://localhost/jubileehigh/images.xml.php?recordNum';
$slideshowRecord = $record['num'];
//new dBug($slideshowRecord);
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
if(typeof swfobject == "undefined"){
alert("The swfobject.js file is missing");
}else{
swfobject.embedSWF (
"assets/flash/homeFlash.swf", "homeFlash", "750", "381",
"7.0.0", "assets/flash/expressInstall.swf",
{ 'xmlPath':'<?php echo $slideShowXML ?>=<?php echo $slideshowRecord ?>' }, { 'wmode':'transparent' }, { 'id':'homeFlash','class':'flashClass' }
);
}
</script>
<div id="homeFlash" class="noFlash" style="height:79px; width:511px;">
<p>You must have JavaScript enabled and have the latest <a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">Flash Player</a> installed to view this movie.</p>
</div>

Please help.

Hi,

I used this code in another site (www.janizm.co.uk) and it worked perfectly.

I've now started a new site and took this code changed the variables & it's not working.

When I look at the XML feed that being pulled through, on the lgpath / thumbpath there appears to be 2 // together before the filene even though this hasn't been specified.

Well, I must admit, I don't have any concrete ideas.

I assume that if you take the / off the end of the lgpath and thumbpath in the xml that doesn't help.

Hi,

I did take one of / off from the database but this didn't make any difference.

Hi,

Could you post a link to your .xml.php file and I'll take a look at it for you. Also, are sure that the path is correct?

Let me know,

Hi,

Thanks. I found out what the problem was, the variable was slightly different.

Thank you anyway!
