    Hi Guys,

    I am attempting to embed a custom .swf carousel in place of the slideshow, in the topsl div of JA Pyrite.

    I’m having alot of trouble getting it to display, and wondered if anybody could guide me some help on the best method to acheive this.

    should i embed code in the index.php file or attempt to use a flash module? I have tried both to no avail, so any help would be gratefully received, as ever.

    … in fact some general guidelines on embedding custom flash .swf’s into joomlart templates would be very well received!!

    thanks in advance.

    Did you try a ‘Custom HTML’ Module with the embed script in that?

    I’ve your same idea and I solved in this way:
    in the index.php of JA Pyrite edit like this:

    <blockquote> <!– BEGIN: SLIDESHOW –>
    <div id=”ja-topsl”>
    <object classid=”clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000″ codebase=”http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0″ width=”949″ height=”200″>
    <param name=”movie” value=”you_name.swf” />
    <param name=”quality” value=”high” />
    <param name=”wmode” value=”transparent” />
    <embed src=”your_name.swf” width=”949″ height=”200″ quality=”high” pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” wmode=”transparent”></embed>
    </object>
    </div>
    <!– END: SLIDESHOW –></blockquote>

    put your swf in the root of Joomla.

    you must put the parameter:
    wmode=”transparent”
    if you use the menu transparent

    I hope this can help you.

    Won’t that display the flash component on every page of your site?

    yes, but this was the expected result
    no idea whatsoever in case this is not your aim
