Good work on the gallery iguess. From the examples i can see its great, but so far i’ve failed to get it working. Ive posted about this on forums and added nextgen-gallery as tag, and i’ve recieved no response, so im using this as a way to contact you.

What i wanted to say was, that is just simply is not working. Galleries created, pictures added, tags added to post, and nothing.

Alan.

Hi Alex,

the problem has been fount (after 24 hours of search and try).

I use a Umlaute-Domain. While Firefox is correctly working with the encodded Domainname (“xn--”), IE doesnt’t.

The problem can easily be solved.

I changed line 72 of the file widgets.php from …

$swfobject->add_flashvars( ‘file’, urlencode( get_option (’siteurl’) . ‘/’ . ‘index.php?slideshow=true&gid=’ . $galleryID ) );

to …

$swfobject->add_flashvars( ‘file’, urlencode( ‘/’ . ‘index.php?slideshow=true&gid=’ . $galleryID ) );

… and both Browser work fine.

’siteurl’ has been translated to the decoded url (punycode-url, starting with “xn--”) while IE works with the Umlaute-Domain. There has been a conflict. Could be, that this is a problem (“security feature”) of Adobe’s Flash Plugin.

Firefox instead works with the decoded Domainname (“xn--”) and everything is fine.

Just in case, you are curious, if ’siteurl’ would be the Umlaute-Domain (not the “xn--”-one), then IE works, but Firefox doesn’t.

So, if you can live with the change, please consider it in your next release.

Cheers, Gerhard
