Hi Everybody,
I want to use the Image Scroller FX (or one of their other objects) from:
http://www.flashxml.net/image-scroller.html ... in the header.
Does anybody know how to do this?
Thanks,
Rosemary

Hi, Rosemary,
I downloaded, installed and activated the image scroller, then uploaded the archives. Then I went to their site and configured height and width, then copied the generated xml and replaced the "settings.xml" in the archive folder. I did notice the settings.xml file is pretty basic to edit so you likely wouldn't need to keep going to their site to configure.
In "templates/page.php" I added the code in art-header-jpeg:
<div class="art-header-jpeg"><?php imagescrollerfx_echo_embed_code(); ?></div>
I used this div because in the 3.0 it has a fixed width while the header div is set to 100%.
In my style.css I did comment out the existing background image because it was showing behind the scroller.
Everything worked as it should except I couldn't get the lightbox to work properly. I use shadowbox (I had bought the license), and it's supposed to be able to respond to lightbox calls, but it didn't work here. That's as far as I tested it.
The page I downloaded from was here:

The reason it did not work, is because Artisteer 3.0 uses Jquery, which clashes with your plug-in. I think...

@ Abland and Nick,
Does this mean it can not work with an Artisteer theme?
Thanks,
Rosemary
