Excellent! I've been wanting a decent slideshow option for my 4images installations -- and this works perfectly. I thought I would post a quickie instructions for a successful installation (it works in both IE and Firefox).
(1) Download the files from VANO.
http://gallery.vano.org/file67dl(2) Extract the zip file.
(3) Upload flashshow.php, slideshow4.fla, and slideshow4.swf to your root 4images folder.
(4) Upload flash.html to your templates folder.
(5) Open categories.php (found in your root 4images folder). Find
$site_template->register_vars("thumbnails", $thumbnails);
unset($thumbnails);
Add the following code ABOVE that.
//-----------------------------------------------------
//--- Slideshow Additiions BEGINS-------------------------------------
//-----------------------------------------------------
$flashshow_url = $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."flashshow.php?action=flashshow&".URL_CAT_ID."=".$cat_id);
$flashshow_button = "<A HREF=\"#\" onClick=\"window.open('".$flashshow_url."','_blank','toolbar=0, location=0, directories=0, status=0, scrollbars=0, resizable=0, copyhistory=0, menuBar=0, width=640, height=480');return(false)\">View Slideshow of Images</a>";
$site_template->register_vars(array(
"flashshow_url" => $flashshow_url,
"flashshow_button" => $flashshow_button
));
//-----------------------------------------------------
//--- Slideshow Additions END -------------------------------------
//-----------------------------------------------------
(6) Save the changes and upload your new categories.php.
(7) Open main.php (found in lang folder). At the end, right before ?> add this:
//-----------------------------------------------------
//--- Slideshow -------------------------------------
//-----------------------------------------------------
$lang['slideshow'] = "Slideshow";
( 8 ) Save and upload your new main.php
(9) Open categories.html (found in templates)
Where you want the Slideshow link to appear - add the following code:
{flashshow_button}
(10) Save and upload your new categories.html
That's it! It works perfectly -- no problems whatsover in any of the browsers I tested it in.
