Having problem with custom landscape
Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2011 6:32 pm
Hi:
Followed directions to a tee regarding creating a custom landscape, but still having difficulties. Will someone look at my homepage and tell me where I may have gone wrong?
http://www.algermichigan.com
It works perfect on the desktop rendition using my own landscape, so it must be a server side problem, because I'm only seeing "weather" on the web page, but not the landscape image itself.
I did upload the landscapes folder with the ywl and png files. I also uploaded the xml file to the home (base) directory on my own server, but I believe that may be where the problem lies.
The directions give the base configuration file, however it fails to mention what url should be placed within that file. Was I right to place yowindow as the variable? Here's the code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cros ... policy.dtd">
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="yowindow.com" secure="true"/>
</cross-domain-policy>
Here's the code for my webpage widget:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://swf.yowindow.com/yowidget3.swf" width="600" height="400">
<param name="movie" value="http://swf.yowindow.com/yowidget3.swf"/>
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"/>
<param name="wmode" value="opaque"/>
<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"/>
<param name="flashvars"
value="location_id=gn:5001929&location_name=Alger&time_format=12&unit_system=us&background=#FFFFFF&mini_momentBar=false©right_bar=false&landscape=http://www.algermichigancom/landscapes/landscapes.ywl"
/>
<a href="http://yowindow.com/weatherwidget.php"
style="width:400px;height:150px;display: block;text-indent: -50000px;font-size: 0px;background:#DDF url(http://yowindow.com/img/logo.png) no-repeat scroll 50% 50%;"
>Weather Widget</a>
</object>
Could the problem lie with the ywl file? Maybe it's pointing to the wrong png file?
Thanks in advance. This is driving me crazy!!!
Adding comment...
I just noticed (didn't notice last night) that the image isn't rendering correctly in the desktop yowindow. The "weather" is only displaying in the top 1/4 of my sky, not the entire sky. Could my image size be incorrect? What the minimal height for an image?
