Once you have successfully upload photo slideshow to web host, the embeding of photo slideshow onto website could be accomplished just through copying and pasting the following html code, which could be found on the generated html file. If you want to show the photo slideshow correctly on your website, you should alter the file path attritute in html code according to the atual file path on web server.

For example:

<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="100%" height="100%"> <param name="movie" value="farm.swf?xml_path=slides.xml" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /> <embed src="farm.swf?xml_path=slides.xml" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="100%" height="100%" allowFullScreen="true"></embed>
</object>

The html code marked by red color should be altered correspondently according your xml and swf file path.

If your xml and swf file is located in "flower" folder on the root of web server, then you should alter the above html code in red like this:

flower/camping.swf?xml_path=flower/slides.xml
