I have followed the guide and I think the most of it is working now:). When I finally insert my swf file (the buttonthumbnails made in Flash that will open Lightbox) in Dreamweaver and click on the thumbnail the Lightbox viewer pops up. So far so good. But at the end of the guide I am told to locate (or add) the wmode and script access tag in my RunContent JavaScript. The problem is that I don't get this Runcontent Javascript in my html code when i insert the swf file. So I can't find the 'allowScriptAccess','sameDomain' anywhere. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? Probably, because I'm a novice at Flash:O. So how and where should I add the wmode and script access tag when I don't get this RunContent Javascript? Maybe I'm doing something wrong when it comes to the swf file? Maybe I'm not supposed to just drag it into the index.html (body tag in Dreamweaver)? But if not, how can I link to my swf file?

Cool site. Like the Flash banner. Is that where you are using LightBox? If so, looks like it works, but I see nowhere you need a gallery. I have never heard of Piecemaker2. Hey David.

I am executing the Lightbox from Piecemaker2 and it's AS3, it was simple to implement and write the function for the AS3 in piecemaker but I'm having trouble launching the image. I know it has to do with the path... I think because of the caption piece... I tried to remove it but Idk what's the deal. If anyone would like to work with me on developing a solution for this to work with the XML and gallery please email me. I am using this code in my portfolio.

If you are building a full site in Flash, you should have single files for each "page". So each page has it's own Flash file. Then on your gallery page, use AS2 instead of AS3 (unless you need AS3). If everything your doing requires AS3, then you cannot use AS2 scripts. Need to stick with one. No. If you are using AS3 (Action Script 3), you need to use AS3 scripts.
