So the support guys at CoffeeCup said they wouldn't help me because I'm trying to put something into the HTML box that they didn't create.

I purchased Removed Name of Competitor Software... because they said it was easy to use and requires no coding.

Basically you set up your album, choose your skins and parameters, click the Javascript option, and it spits out the code.

I then took that code and dropped it into the HTML box on VSD...and nothing. I don't understand coding, which is one of the reasons I use CoffeeCup.

Can anyone please tell me what's going wrong? The guys at CoffeeCup are blaming the code and the guys at Removed Name of Competitor Software... are blaming Coffeecup, which means no one will help me.

This is an example of the code that I'm pasting into VSD;'s HTML box.

<div id="SimpleFadeJS1333659618043" style="width:800px;height:600px;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="SimpleFade.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
(function() {
var err;
try{
$.slideshowBoxEmbedCanvas.init({
appendToID:"SimpleFadeJS1333659618043",

});
}catch(err){}
})();
</script>

Can you tell me why you purchased the other software over Photo Gallery? Photo Gallery does the same thing you are saying this software does...

Photo Gallery is flash. Flash is pretty useless.

Do you know why I can't just take the code listed and drop it into VSD's HTML box?

What am I missing?

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Nothing is declared on that page. Script handlers that have to be placed in the Head section of the HTML Tool in VSD.

So...what does that mean?

I just want it to work. What do I need to put in VSD's HTML box so that the code shows up on the page? Usually I just copy a code, drop it in, and it works. For some reason this time it isn't. :(

Seems your .js file has not been uploaded?
