Well i finally made the files to be created automatically. So now when i am at english/products/77(prod_id)/gallery.php i get to see the flash movies as it is supposed to be When I try to load the movie in a file in english/offer.php?id=77 the movie loads but it doesnt show the menu, the settings or the images. Does anyone know why? This is the code in english/products/77(prod_id)/gallery.php <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="611" height="418" id="gallery" align="middle"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /><param name="movie" value="gallery.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="gallery.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="611" height="418" name="gallery" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html; /></object> <? $prod_id=$_GET["id"]; ?><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="611" height="418" id="gallery" align="middle"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /><param name="movie" value="products/<?="$prod_id"?>/gallery.swf" /><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /><embed src="products/<?="$prod_id"?>/gallery.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="611" height="418" name="gallery" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html; /></object> The movie loads ok, but it is supposed to use the following files and folders: products/77/gallery.swf (which loads) .../77/menu.xml .../77/settings.xml .../77/splash.img ../77/images_folder/ ../77/images_folder/pics.xml ../77/images_folder/images.jpg ../77/images_folder/thumbs/ ../77/images_folder/thumbs/images.jpg if you want to see the pages then: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (works ok) http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (doesn't work) I was getting the loading menu on the top left of the flash when it couldn't find the menu.xml so my guess is the flash is being embedded in the /english/ folder but cant find the files it needs to work?

So the XML file is the key here! I had another flash that would accept a php variable but if you clicked the flash it would take you to a different website. the php file that contains the flash must be in the same folder as the xml file. So if i create a folder for each product, and upload the pictures there, create the xml and add the php(flash) file then it should work and it wouldnt mess things up? I guess working too many hours doesn't help thinking of the obvious. I m gonna try this solution and post my results. In the meantime if anyone has any other solution I d be glad to read and give it a try also!

Hello there and thanks for the helping hand you are offering. PHP newbie here! So here is my problem: On my website I have a flash image gallery.The way the gallery works is by uploading pictures in a folder and editing? an xml file.(pics.xml) where it adds the following code when you upload a picture: <pictures> <image location="nameofpicture1.jpg" desc="" /> <image location="nameofpicture2.jpg" desc="" /></pictures>etc... Now I have users that upload products they sell on the website or they advertise their business(hotels, jewellers, car resellers,...) So for every "product" they post they upload their pictures to a specific path and I keep their pictures path in a mysql database. I m trying to work a solution so that everytime a visitors clicks to see a product he gets the flash gallery for that product. This means I have to create/edit the pics.xml file so that it only contains the pictures for that specific post. So the user open a view_product.php which includes a php file that contains the flash. The flash gets the pictures for the gallery from the pics.xml file. Any ideas on how to work out this problem? Edit: I just uploaded the php file that edits the xml file if that is any help. I guess I could edit that file each time a user views a post but i dont think that's a good idea! Notice from rvalkass: You need CODE tags around any code you place in a post. upload_pics.php
