  1. Thanks for the reply. I had read that and tried it however I don't really know how to add the embed tag to what I have there now. It adds another flash. Can you tell me how to do this? I used the swfobject generator I think to get the code I have. (I say, I think now because I tried so many new things in testing)

     

    Thanks

  2. I'm hoping that someone can and will help me with the CMS made simple album module. I have used it before so I am a bit familiar with things but struggling with a couple issues now. I am deciding between two basic album templates, the greybox and the thickbox.

    -greybox - works great in FF but in IE the enlarged images tend to comeup, flicker white and then load. This happens with each image in the series everytime.

     

    -default- in both FF and IE the enlarged image comes up under the flash header. I know this is a common issue with flash and I know a tiny bit about z-index but don't know where to start with it in the css. Actually I did play with it but nothing seemed to help.

     

    [solved this issue of the flash being on top with wmode] but still the issue for greybox template

    I don't know what else to supply for now to get answers to my question but here is a link show the greybox 1st

  3. Hi, me again. I've had a little break from this issue of multi languages. Had decided (for the one site) to just build 2 pages for each language (or, you know what I mean) Susie had asked if I was using CMS for it and at the time I didn't think so but turns out now the one client wants me to. So, yes I have used CMSmade simple a few times now and may try to figure out that module. I just had a brief look at it and when I have installed CMS on this clients server I will work with it.

     

    So, when the time comes, have you actually used the one in CMSmadesimple? It is called babel. Or have you just used the one in Wordpress and would you help me out when the time comes?

     

    Thanks :D

  4. Right, thank you all for the help and input. I think I am going in the right direction. Will carry on with html pages of each but once again have learned a few things along way - and yes both clients have the translated text ready for me as well.

     

    Thanks again :D

  5. Ah ha! Thankyou Thelma. It seems to work now.

     

    I'm not sure which way I will do the site. Most of it is already built with 2 sets of pages, (english and german) with their correct navigation.

     

    I just want to understand this though, If I use the style switcher for the website, would I need to create new english and german .inc files (with different names to hold the different content? I don't understand that.

    English

    German

     

    <?php include("includes/english.inc"); ?>

    <?php include("includes/german.inc"); ?>
  6. Thankyou all for the replies. I did play a bit with the style switcher and managed it sortof. I didn't totally understand what I was doing with the 'German display block, English display none'

     

    I haven't done much PHP so I don't understand the 'PHP includes' thing mentioned and this website is for a non paying friend so I haven't spent much time on it. I think I may just stick to making 2 pages of each in different languages.

     

    Funny thing is that just days ago I was asked to do some updates on an existing website (for a paying client) and the one update is to have an Arabic version. Go figure!

     

    Oh, and no I wasn't building it with CMS or Wordpress, but could look into that as well. Thanks

  7. I am building a website that will have an English version and a German version. Is there a correct way to do this? I have started it but am just building my pages, duplicating each, changing the language and links for each. I wonder if there is a proper way.

  8. In my right column I have .content_col1 (floated left in my css) and .content_col2 (floated right) I thought I would check the right column without them, uploaded and did another browser shot. The left column remains at the top in 5.5 and 6 so it is my css for these classes that is throwing it off. My problem is that I still am fairly new with it all. Any ideas?
