Bridge/Photoshop CS3 Web Gallery Question

Hi There, I have a question about the Photoshop cs3 Flash Gallery, particularly the flashobject.js file and index.html file. Whenever I try and open the finished Flash Gallery HTML page, I get a message that says "Please upgrade your Flash player" and "Already have Flash player installed? Click Here." Is there a way that I can remove that and just have it go to the Flash Gallery? I notice that it says Flash Player 6 but that is an old version. I am not very knowledgeable in javascript so any help would be appreciated.

Ellen,
I replied to your identical thread in the Bridge forum this morning.

Photoshop CS3 web gallery bugs(?); vanishing metadata, bad sort order

Running OS 1.5.4 on 24" Imac, I'm attempting to generate a "horizontal slideshow" from bridge-selected files in Photoshop CS3.
[Sounded like the problem in this post: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b5a9fe/2 but on re-reading I've decided it's different so I'm giving it it's own thread, with more detail...]
Here's my experience:
1) Description and title show up for a second on the first slide, then revert to just the blank template on that and all subsequent slides (title: [blank] description: [blank]....
Hitting "refresh" produces the descriptive metadata for a tantalizing moment, then it' s back to the blank template for this and all subsequent slides. It does this both for Safari and Firefox.
You can view this behavior in a slideshow at http://oasisdesign.net/projects/earthtoilet/
If it asks for a password, use---
user:earthling
pass: draf1 )
"preserve all metadata" is checked.
I've tried all combinations of checking/ unchecking "title, description, filename" for labeling...also, making slideshows with just one or two slides to reduce the chance that it's a weird character issue of the type some other folks have experienced...
2) additionally, the web gallery is not respecting the manual sort order in Bridge, which is the source of the files. The help files say the slideshow should follow the manual sort order in Bridge.
3) Finally, metadata entered in bridge metadata tab sometimes vanishes, sometimes metadata entered in file info wouldn't show in the metadata tab.
Thanks for your help!!

BTW, here's the related issues I found:
http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b5a9fe/2
...After some investigation, I found that the descriptions were disappearing only for photos that had a Return / Line Break in the description. If you go back and make sure all of your descriptions are a single line, it works fine....

OK...here's the hack I used to get around what I'm now totally convinced are program bugs and shortcomings relative to advertised functionality, for anyone else who has to deal with this, followed by my (suggested fixes to Adobe)...
1) Sort everything the way you want in bridge.
2) Make meta descriptions w/o weird characters (a warning here would be helpful)
3) Use "batch rename," with "copy to another folder" to give the images totally plain vanilla, DOS-style file names (001.jpg, 002.jpg...). This solves most filename issues and the works around web gallery's failure to recognize bridge sort order in one go. Note that you can irrevocably screw up the names of all your original files if you're not very careful to COPY at this step.
([a] make the bridge sort work directly, as advertised, por favor. [b] add an error message or warning about file names such as 006-(2).jpg causing malfunction. A compassionate, low-effort short-term patch for Mac users of web gallery, especially since bridge generates that particular sort name itself invisibly and automatically if you move a file with the same name into a folder)
4) Use "white on black" instead of bug-ridden "horizontal slideshow" (horizontal slideshow should be fixed or deleted from the next version...multiple slideshow options would be awesome, as they advance automatically at the max rate the user's bandwidth allows, a very attractive feature)
5) Restrict all images to the same height so users can click *in the same spot* to advance the 200 images with less carpal tunnel (the advance arrow should *always* be in the same spot, for every web gallery, IMHO)
Web galleries are a fantastic tool for sharing information easily...I hope to see some evolution in those great automatic updates someday...

Photoshop CS3 Web Gallery Hosting

Hi there,
I'm fairly new to HTML and flash altogether (just took up IT classes). I bought the Adobe web premium pack, which came with a nifty video tutorial guide.
Through those tutorials, i quickly learned how to create a web gallery with PS CS3... which leads me to the next question, one which i found myself asking just a few seconds after the end of the tutorial: Now what?
I have a folder with the .html or in my case .fla gallery which works and looks fine on my computer, but i have no idea how to host it on the net, even with dreamweaver.
Watching through other tutorials, i learned how to import a .fla file into dreamweaver, but how does one import an entire flash gallery?
Or simpler yet, how can i get this web gallery online? (quick and dirty, doesn't matter as long as it gets done)
A quick response would really be appreciated, i've been scratching my head over this for the last 4-5 hours, thanks!

Hi Justin,
I am also new, but I know how to upload files to a site, so I'm going to attempt to help you. It's very easy if you've ever uploaded files to a server. Have you? Because you simply upload all the files created by Photoshop to the server using Fetch. Be sure you load your folders as well. To upload folder go to the Remote item and pull down until it says Put folders and files. Then add the folders you need to upload, click done and click new folder.
The problem I'm having is that my web site gallery isn't displaying properly. If you have this part figured out, please help. I'm getting a space above the site, I'm getting a couple icons in that space including a box and a question mark within a diamond. The controls are not visible. Anyone, I could use some help.

Photoshop CS2 web gallery

I attempting to use the Photoshop CS2 web gallery to incorporate into my iweb page.
I have found how to make the gallery and have set up a folder, however, I am unsure of where to go from here.
Can I place this slideshow into iWeb? And if so, how?
thanks for your help,
Felisha

Varkgirl,
I am now unable to view the page on "adding slideshows" for some reason it is not coming up.....However,
I am trying to add multiple galleries to one page and while reading rowan-cottages website it directs me to your page. I am using iphoto expert to create the slideshows and in your instructions where it says something like "find hre and add _________" I can't find it on the html page I created using iphoto expert. I didn't know if it would only appear on the web export html page or am I just overlooking it?
If your instructions for adding multiple galleries only apply to web export, I'm wondering if you can answer another question...
On the SimpleViewer FAQ's page it says:
"To create multiple galleries of images, make a copy of the whole SimpleViewer folder for each gallery. Create your individual galleries as normal. You can now create a menu page that links to the index.html page in each sub-folder."
I'm new at this thing and don't understand what making a copy of the "whole SimpleVier folder" means...are they saying copy the "slideshow" folder..and if they are, why would the put "create your individual galleries as normal" after that sentence?
AND
How would I go about "creating a menu page"
I appreciate your expertise greatly!
take a look at the "test" page on my website. I don't know what to do with the box that says "IFRAMECODEGOESHERE"... pictwist.net

Photoshop CS3 Web Premium compatible with Windows 8.1

I have just received a new Computer with Windows 8.1 and want to install Photoshop CS3 Web Premium on it. Are there any issues with this Operating System and Photoshop CS3 Web Premium?

Are there any issues with this Operating System and Photoshop CS3 Web Premium?
You bet there are. Starting with Win 7 the print engine and certain other parts of Windows have changed and naturally the new security menchanisms may require compatibility modes and a lot of trickery already upon install. It's not impossible, but issues should definitely be expected - some small, some more critical.

Edit Photoshop Flash Web Gallery

Hi!
I'm completely new to Flash but I've been trying to edit the
Flash gallery 1 included in Photoshop CS2. What I like to do is to
make links from the title in the head. I figured out how I can copy
the code for the email field that already exists. But I cant really
understand how I change it so it works on a webpage instead of an
email.
The template I'm using can be downloaded here:
Photoshop
Flash Web Gallery
I found the specific code in title.class.as
The code I want to change looks like this:
if (email != undefined) {
var emailObj = this.createEmptyMovieClip('email_mc',
this.nextDepth())
emailObj.beenClicked = false;
//trace ('we have email info it is '+email);
currentY -= titleH2.size;
emailObj.createTextBlock('email_txt', currentX, currentY,
'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, email,
config.embedFont, false);
emailObj.email_txt._width = emailObj.email_txt.textWidth+10;
emailObj.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
emailObj.onRollOver = emailObj.onDragOver = function () {
//trace("over");
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
emailObj.onRollOut = emailObj.onDragOut = function () {
//trace("out");
if (this.beenClicked == false){
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.link.toHex();
} else {
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
emailObj.onPress = function () {
//trace("out");
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.alink.toHex();
emailObj.onRelease = function () {
this.beenClicked = true;
this.email_txt.textColor = theGallery.vlink.toHex();
mailTo ( email)
//trace("release");
What I want to do is to create a link in the code for:
if (one != undefined) {
//trace ('we have a one it is '+one+' that is '+one.length);
currentY -= titleH2.size;
this.createTextBlock('one_txt', currentX, currentY,
'dynamic', titleH2, 1600, 20, false, false, true, false, one,
config.embedFont, false);
Lets say that I want it to link to a page called one.htm
How do I do this?

This would be the least instrusive hack I can find that may get you around the problem. In the js fle there is a function...
function detectFlash(ver) {
if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
Try changing this function to...
function detectFlash(ver) {
if (getFlashVersion() >= ver) {
return true;
} else {
return true;
This should eliminate making the text appear. If not, there's another thing you can try.
A better approach wuld be to use more up to date embedding code, though I cannot say whether the js file is written specifically for this Flash application such that it includes code that talks to the Flash file.

How can I select items from Bridge for a web gallery in CS4

I have installed the plug-in for Photoshop in order to create a web gallery. In the past, I have been able to choose items selected from Bridge, but now that function is greyed out and I can only choose a folder. Is there something I should download for Bridge in order to activate this option?

Thats right, they have to go to:
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CS4/Adobe Photoshop/
Maybe you copied the files by mistake to the
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CS4/Adobe Bridge/
or maybe you copied to the Library folder in your Home directory (User) instead, as you mentioned, you had to make the directory your self.
You could make a fast check by hitting «Command+Shift+G» shortcut from your desktop and paste the first link from this reply, then you should see something like this:
and if you can't recognize the structure above, you have located the problem.

Trying to add img scr, alt and title tags to a Photoshop created web gallery.

I need to add some tags to a web photo gallery created by Photoshop. I've posted the same question in the PS Forum just in case.
I need to add img src, alt and title tags to the images in the web gallery. Normally this is as simple as working on the code in the html page in which the image sits but the PS gallery doesn't seem to be that simple. I'm not sure exactly what file to put these tags in.
Can anyone tell me exactly how, and which files I need to work on, to add these tags to each of my 42 gallery images?
Thanks.
John.

The gallery is a mess and I might just rebuilt it using something else like Jalbum, but here it is: http://thewoodshopmalvern.com/ThumbnailGallery/index.htm
Yes, I'm sorry, I'm trying to add ATTRIBUTES to the <img> tag.
For the rest of the site I have simply gone to each of the html pages and updated the code itself - pretty straightforward. But PS seems to use Javascript in making this gallery and unfortunately I just don't know enough about Java to understand exactly where I need to add these attributes.

Lightroom 1.1 - Adobe Camera RAW 4.1 (Bridge, Photoshop CS3) problem

Dear all,
I am having some problems with the appearance of files developed in adobe lightroom 1.1 or in adobe camera raw 4.1 from e.g. bridge or photoshop cs3. When developing in lightroom the images look great, however when using acr 4.1 and the same xmp sidecar settings imported from lightroom, the image in acr looks very pale in comparison. For example when using the export into photoshop option in Lightroom, the image in PS3 looks very pale to the one in lightroom. The same problem persists with developing using ACR 4.1 from bridge. I have turned autotoning in ACR off. Also in the color management of PS CS3, the desaturate checkbox is UNchecked.
I am using an icc profile for my 30" cinema display, calibrated with colory eyes pro and a spyder2.
Has anybody had similar problems with ACR 4.1 or am I just doing something horribly simple wrong?
Thanks for your help!
Immanuel

Thomas,
thanks for your reply. In Mac OS X Preview the images look all good and very much like what I see in Lightroom. In any case not as pale or like with a slight white overcast to what I see when using ACR 4.1 from Bridge or Photoshop CS3. In PS color settings, preserving embedded profiles is checked. Yes, it seems to me as well that this is some color management issue. The 30" Cinema display was calibrated using Color Eyes Pro and Spyder2 to Gamma 2.2 and 6500 temp. However, even when reverting to the standard Apple color profile for the monitor, the problem persists.
No luck so far...

Bridge CS4 / Flash Web Gallery

Hi!
I'm trying to create a web gallery in Bridge CS4.
If I save to disk, then it'll run fine locally, but once uploaded it won't any more.
No idea why. It used to work, and as far as I know, I altered *nothing*.
Here is one that did work:
http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/testflash/
(uploaded using Fetch)
Here's one that I ftp'd from Bridge. Works as well:
http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/test
Here is the exact same gallery as the one above, saved to HDD, then uploaded using Fetch.
http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/test1/
Both of the later galleries don't have a folder "bin" created, which the first one did.
Also weird, is that when I used CyberDuck to upload the "test1" gallery, I got a "403" error when trying to view it...
HTML galleries work "so so" for me.
Again: looks fine locally, looks off once uploaded.
Error 403: http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/testHTML/
Looks off: http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/testHTMLFetch/
(strange symbol on the top, when clicked, the images appear off center, and with a dark line above them)
Again, does look okay when uploaded through Bridge instead of Fetch:
Works: http://www.moonglade.net/~rene/testHTMLBridge/
A few other points I have with the web galleries through BridgeCS4: There seems to be no option to watermark, or to convert the images to sRGB? These images are AdobeRGB, with embedded profile, which will look like crap in any non color managed browser. Not ideal, to say the least.
Also repaired permissions and such. Then restart.
No help.
I've tried resetting all prefs for bridge, and even installed the entire CS4 anew.
No help.
I'm at a loss here. Might be something simple I'm missing, but I don't see it...
Guess I'll just have to use LR to build web galleries.
OSX 10.4.11
G5 2x2GHz
5.5Gb Ram
31Gb free on an 160Gb HDD

I discovered a way to create a Bridge CS4 gallery that works in all browsers.
The flash gallery worked great on most browsers - but does not work on the iPhone. My google analytics show that many people are looking at my site via an iPhone.
Take 2 was making an .html gallery. Was able to preview it and it looked great on my computer, but when uploaded to my site the images did not appear, only the names. This indicated the image files had not uploaded. I located the "content" folder within the photo gallery and tried uploading it separately, receiving the error that there was an illegal file name so it couldn't be uploaded.
Take 3 - looked at the file names in the folder "content" and realized the sub folder name "bin" was probably causing the problem to solve it (it is assumed that you manage your site with Dreamweaver CS4):
Open Dreamweaver CS4
Locate the "bin" file in the "files" palatte and select it
In the drop-down menu in the upper right of the files pallet choose
>file
>rename
>then rename the file, I used "source"
Dreamweaver will ask you permission to update linked files - say YES
The gallery will now work on all browsers.

Photoshop CS4 web gallery template in Lightroom?

Hi,
I have a custom web gallery template set up in Photoshop CS4. I would like to use it in Lightroom, but it appears the Lightroom web gallery templates are in a different format (and not so customisable). Is there a way I can use my CS template in LR??

Thanks Ian,
I am trying out Lightroom to see if it can replace PS for my needs. So far its not looking good! Looks like I might have to upgrade PS instead. I am preffy proficient with PS and have several custom functions set up. My web gallery integrates with my website and has been developed over a time to get it just how I like it. I can also drop in and edit the HTML to tweak it as I go.

Colours in Bridge/Photoshop CS3

After editing images in Photoshop CS3 (using a calibrated Eizo monitor S2231W) and viewing them in Bridge (whether PSD or JPG) in the presentation modus, the colours change a bit and become oversaturated when I change the presentation from "fit in" to 100%(by scrolling the mouse wheel). The same oversaturated colours appear also in other Windows viewers (e.g. Magix, irfanview). Of course I can use a different custom preset on the monitor when viewing the images on the monitor and reduce the saturation there, but the colour change will remain. So how can I see in Photoshop when editing and be sure what the colours will be like in a Windows presentation?
(PS- changing the colour settings in Photoshop did not help)
Thank you for helping! - Jochen

I'm also working on a stable calibrated system which I believe I understand, and I see the same colour shift when zooming a Bridge CS3 slideshow from "fit" to 100%, latest version, Windows Vista SP1 etc. It looks like the slideshow program is arbitrarily assigning Adobe RGB as a colour space for the RAW image which it's displaying, but only at 100%. That's odd as my working spaces are all sRGB on this machine.
I've tried various combinations of Bridge settings including the factory defaults. It makes no difference what the ACR colour space (in the XMP recipe) for that image is: I get the same effect for sRGB and Adobe RGB XMP settings.
The second post here seems to be about PS colour management in general; that's not the issue here, this is quite specific to the 100% zoom in Bridge Slideshow.
Looking at various jpeg test charts I can't make the shift happen; I get it only with RAW files (CR2, various different Canon bodies, all the same problem).
More investigation suggests that my Bridge's colour management is slightly broken more generally. That is, if I have an sRGB JPEG file without an explicit embedded profile tag, Bridge should display it as sRGB (see explicit section 2 from the sRGB standard here:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/Color/sRGB.html). This isn't happening with a test image: it's apparently not colour managed at all. If I assign sRGB explicitly to the image and save as JPEG or PNG it displays correctly however.
Perhaps that's a clue to the 100% problem... does anyone else have any idea what may be going on here?

Iphoto 6 and web gallery question

I'm a newbie, so please excuse me if this sounds stupid. I have iphoto 6 and have successfully made photo pages, but I can't figure out how to start a web gallery. (I want other people to be able to upload their photos.) I've tried looking at tutorials & stuff but they all have to do with iphoto '08. Am I just blind? I haven't subscribed yet to .mac, I'm still in the trial, does that make a difference? I'd appreciate any help,

I was referring to the customer reviews of ilife '08 on the Apple website. You're right though, most of the negativity was regarding iMovie 7, and the majority of the iPhoto complaints were about their current published photo pages being "all messed up". That doesn't bother me so much because I want to start over with a new web gallery anyway. Also, a guy I talked to said that he was having trouble with iPhoto 7 and his photoshop work. (Like I said, I'm new to this, so my feeble brain lost the exact terminology he used.) I think I will trust what you say though and go ahead and buy it just because it looks so **** pretty. Thank you for your help!

Bridge CS5 HTML Web Gallery renames images.

When creating an HTML Web Gallery (using ‘Lightroom’ template), Bridge CS5 renames the thumbs and large images to an arbitrary number. The caption reads as the original file name, but the actual image has a new name. This is problematic, as my clients will right-click selected images from my galleries to save and forward for approval, but the file name is not the same as the original.
Is there any way to fix this little (for me--BIG) problem?

No way to change it, it's a "feature." (Not!)
File a bug report. It makes web galleries useless for me.

A few Web Gallery Questions

1) I have an Event with 49 photos I'm trying to upload to the Web Gallery. It seems it will upload only one & then stop. I see nothing that says pending or indicates it's still uploading. I've tried a few times with the same results
2) The one picture it does upload, uploads at the same high res quality in the event. Is there a simple way to upload resized pictures like 800x600. Especially if I'm not concerned with viewers downloading for reprint

Do you mind posting up what your solution was? I'm curious.
