YoWindow Forum

Hi friends

Although unfinished, I tell you the news.

A custome landscape on your own website is now possible without crossdomain.xml in the root.
this week I come with the description and setup files to make this possible. On a test site of mine it works already
Also, I come with some joomla templates with a yowindow banner.
See http://hermanz.nl/index.php/nl/weer-animatie.

But I also want to temper enthusiasm.
There are some drawbacks.
The updates must be performed manually.
New Features Will Not Update on the widget.
When a new landscape or new animal gets into YoWidget available, the widget Will not Update Itself on the user's server.

It is meant for those who do not have the ability to place crossdomain.xml in the root and want to use a custom landscape ,

Hi
If you place the yowindow flash and the custome landscape on the same website places you do not need crossdomain.xml.

Unzipped the lan_yowindow.zip in the root of your site.
Then you see
root
\ lan_yowindow \ yowidget \ landscapes \ david
\ lan_yowindow \ yowidget \ landscapes \ ijselmeer
\ lan_yowindow \ yowidget \ lang \ mini

Control this with http://yoursite.com/lan_yowindow/index.php

the content of index.php :
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
<div style="width:220px; height:150px;">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="yowidget/yowidget.swf" width="600" height="400">

<param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"/>
