Making a new album

[leighp1]

I am working hard at this and I just can't seem to figure it out. How do you add a new album to the portfolio? I really appreciate all your time and help.

Hi,
There are several ways to that. You can easly create new albums by duplicating <album>...</album> tags in the xml file. You can see these new albums when you click on the icon in the lower left corner of the photo portfolio.

The problem is that's it is not very intuitive. You could perhaps add a small explaining text under the flash portfolio ?

An other solution would be to create an other photo gallery page. If you want to use this solution please tell us and we will tell you how to to it.

I have figured it out, with your help of course! I have added some text to the index page about the icon with more albums. I will see how well it is accepted and if not, then I will add more buttons.

I really appreciate all your help.

Thank you again,
Leigh

Could you please help me add another gallery. I have decided it is really hard for people to understand the concept of the buttons on the bottom. There isn't a way to change the color of the buttons is there? Oh well, if you could help with the more galleries. Thanks

Okay, what I did was to copy and paste the code that you gave into lines 61 - 68 and this is what I got.
function myFlashGallery (_src,_width,_height,_bgcolor,_divID,gallery) {
if (window.document.getElementById(_divID)) {
if (gallery == null){
gallery = 'gallery.xml';
}
window.document.getElementById(_divID).innerHTML=A C_FL_RunContentDiv( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0','width',_width,'heigh t',_height,'src',_src,'quality','high','pluginspag e','http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie',_src,'bgcolor',_bgcolor,'a llowScriptAccess','sameDomain','allowFullScreen',' true','FlashVars','xmlFile='+gallery); //end AC code
AC_FL_RunContentDiv( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0','width','540','height ','418','src','flash/gallery/gallery','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','flash/gallery/gallery','bgcolor','#FFFFFF','allowFullScreen','tr ue'); //end AC code
} else {
alert("Div '"+_divID+"' not found ");
}
}


When I replace those lines I save it and copy it over the main.js right? It might be too early in the morning for me, so I will play with it until I see a reply though. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.
