This is what I did.

From the index file in the banner202 I copied this code
<script type="text/javascript">
var requiredMajorVersion = 9;
var requiredMinorVersion = 9;
var requiredRevision = 0;
var hasRightVersion = DetectFlashVer(requiredMajorVersion, requiredMinorVersion, requiredRevision);
if(hasRightVersion) {
AC_FL_RunContent( 'codebase','http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0','width','850','height ','250','src','flash/header','quality','high','pluginspage','http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer','movie','flash/header','flashvars','custom_xml_url=custom.xml', 'bgcolor','#FFFFFF','scale','noScale'); //end AC code
} else {
alert("Your version of Flash player is rather old. We suggest you to upgrade your Flash player to version "+requiredMinorVersion+" (at least).The latest version can be downloaded here : http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash.");
}
</script>

and pasted it into the body of my index page right below <div id="header"> .
I put in the jscript folder of my template the js file that is in the banner jscript folder.
Did the same with the flash file.
I modified the custom file in the banner and the template as indicated in the "how to customize" instructions.

<graphics_color>990000</graphics_color>
<animation_loop>yes</animation_loop>
<transition_time_seconds>5</transition_time_seconds>

<replay display="no" x_pos="520" y_pos="380" size="10" letter_spacing="1" bgd_color="000000" text_color="FFFFFF"> Replay</replay>
</header_vars>

After doing all these modifications the index file in the banner has the images at the right size but no text is displyed. It works on my computer not when I upload it on the net http://www.steppingstonemontessori.o...nner/index.htm

I don't know why the header doesn't work on the web when it does on my computer. I also can't find a way for the text to display.

The header banner doesn't work when I put it in the template: either on my computer or the web. http://www.steppingstonemontessori.org/trial/index.html
