HELP!.. Headers: SlideShow using "Multiple" SWFs files [to randomize load]?
Permalink
Hi, I am new to the scene and I love all that can be done with C5.
...Need your help!
I am looking to load "multiple" swf [flash] files (as in the image Slideshow) on the header block of the default "page-type" to show all across on the selected child pages.
- note: FYI - I need multiple swf files, because each has its own animation and I want it to load randomly, not in the same order (otherwise I'd just make one long flash mov).
Now the problem I see is that I am able to load multiple images (jpg, giff, etc..) but I CANNOT seem to be able to do so with flash files (SWFs)to have them load and play randomly as the images would.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Alex,
Thanks for your reply, it seems like a workable concept (theoretically). I'll give it a go. Thanks again.
All the best.

Hope it works out, can you let me know, I may use the idea one day?
You may want to look at 'quote of the day' block in the Marketplace too. It is much the same block but at a lesser price.

Hey Alex,
Thanks for your suggestions. I checked them out but I dont think it would not work as I need it to. Thanks for your help though.

You will need your content in a scrapbook and then it will randomly grab them form there, in theory anyway.
Check out the block as there is a demo section where you can play around with it and maybe even upload your files to see if the concept works.
Hope that helps
