Web photo gallery won't open on internet... why?

I hope someone can help me with this.
I always made slideshows with Photoshop until I got Elements. The newest version of Photoshop does not have that option anymore.
I made a web photo gallery with elements, put it up in Dreamweaver, made a link, tested it on three browsers and it all worked perfectly.
I then uploaded it all to a server.
When I go to the page on internet, the link takes me to the index of the photo gallery but the slideshow does not open. It seems like the index file does not open the resource folder.
I have compared the site on my computer with the site on the server and everything is exactly the same. The photo gallery is on th server with the index file and resource folder.
I can't understand why the photo gallery doesn't behave on internet like it does on my computer.
Can anyone explain this to me?
I really like the way the new photo gallery looks compared with the slideshow made with my older version of Photoshop and would like to use it. Plus the fact that I can control the speed of the slideshow on Elements is a real boon.
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
I will try to be as explicate as possible.
This is a site that I maintain for a marathon. This is the 10th year. The participants contribute a series of photos that I have always made into slide shows.
I have a page that references slideshows from 2009 for example. I made these photos into slideshows using Photoshop CS3. The different folders are called "Slideshow xxx" with the corresponding index file. When I link to the index file in a certain folder the slideshow opens in a blank page and wonderful.
Now, this year, I have done the same thing using Element with the results I mention in my origiinal message: the photo gallery does not open in any browser in spite of being linked to the index file in the web photo gallery I created with Element.
What happens when I go to the index file is simply nothing. I do not get an error message.
You can see for yourself by going to
http://www.el-ocejon.com/fotos%202010.html
and clicking on either of the two last options (the first links to a picasa page that is not a problem).
The solution is simple: create a slideshow using Photoshop CS3 and forget the whole thing. But I would like to know what the problem is here and why I cannot get the photo gallery created with Elements to work on the internet.
Or is this a "two steps forward and one step back" issue with Photoshop?

Cannot see web photo gallery in design in dreamweaver cs3

have made web photo gallery in PS- opens in browser- opens in
dreamweaver cs3- I can see the code all OK can view again in
browser--But I cannot see the thumbnails or tables-yet I know its
there hidden?--How can I make it all visible

Cindy:
If you dig really deeply (10 levels down!) in your Library folder you will find the templates for the new Bridge Galleries. You can also use the Lightroom templates in Bridge CS4.
Library/Applications Support/Adobe/Bridge CS4 Extensions/Adobe output Module/mediagallery/resources/templates/07lightroomgallery/styles
I duplicated one of the enclosed Styles and dragged it to the Desktop;
opened it in GoLive (because I like the way that GL displays html code although any text editor will do);
edited the code to give me the background colors, text and image frames that I wanted; and Saved the file with a new but similar name (starting with next two digits in the series and with the .xml suffix) in the same location as the original.
And it works!
You may be able to put your existing templates in the appropriate areas.
Or, you could install the Optional Plug-ins which let you use the Photoshop/File/Automate
web galleries and put your old templates wherever you kept them for CS3.
WARNING:
You should be perfectly safe doing this but if you screw-up CS4 and have to re-install it I accept no responsibility!!!!!!!

Settings and Web Photo Gallery

I am trying to use the Automate > Web Photo Gallery feature of Photoshop CS4. Why is this not installed with CS5?
I have downloaded the Optional Plug ins only to find it simply refuses to work! I have the same settings on my MacBook and that works fine, but the MacPro refuses to display the Web Photo Gallery in the Autotmate menu.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong? In the mean time I will have to use CS4.
Also - Is there an automated way to import all the settings that were used with CS4 version of Photoshop? (and all the rest of CS5).
Surely this ought to be a brain dead obvious feature to add to the UPGRADE of Photosop. All I want to do is upgrade and carry on using photoshop, not spend days trying to find the previous settings in CS4 then get them imported into CS5.
PS - can someone remind me why I bothered to spend the money to upgdade?

I think the matter has come up in other threads, but I don’t know if a 64bit-version is in the books; you could try doing a Forum Search and/or looking in the Feature Request Section if you can add your support to such a request or start a thread.

Can't open Web Photo Gallery in CS4

In my CS2 version of PS Web Photo Gallery was already installed. In CS4 it is not. I downloaded the plugin from Adobe but it won't appear when I state PS / File / automate. The address to where I placed the folder is:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Presets\Web Photo Gallery
Does anyone have an idea as to why I can't access it through PS4, version 11? Do I have to "turn it on" somehow in PS?
Thanks, Airpix

You installed the presets for the web gallery, but you also need to install the plugin:
WebContactSheet II in the plugins/automate folder
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\Automate
Make sure you install the 64 bit version of the WebContactSheet II plugin.
Added: Included in the download is a pdf file that explains the exact places
where the different stuff goes.

Flash-driven web photo gallery in Contribute

I created a flash-driven web photo gallery in LightRoom. I'm
trying to insert it in Contribute to post on my website but
Contribute won't recognize the file. Any suggestions as to how to
insert this photo gallery on Contribute?

From what I understand on the internet, a lightroom gallerie
is build with more files than just one swf. Have you checked this
and made sure that these are on the server?

Updating a web photo gallery

Hi,
I have created a website using Dreamweaver CS6. On one of my pages I have a web photo gallery which I created in Adobe Bridge and then embedded onto the web page by using iframe in Dreamweaver. If I wanted to add or delete photos in this web gallery, how do I do this?
Thanks, I look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers
Anna

Hi Hans,
Thanks, I managed to work it out. I already have the web gallery incorporated into my website via bridge into dreamweaver cs6 using iframe (http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/gallery/embed1.php) no problem but was wondering how you update this gallery if you wanted to remove or add new photos to this gallery,
This is what you do for anyone out there who may want to do the same and their site is not yet live on the www.
1) Go back to the folder that contains all the photos for your photo gallery on the hard drive in windows explorer. Remove or add photos there in Windows Explorer.
2) Then open Bridge and select that folder. In the panel on the right should contain all the properties for your photo gallery.
3) Check in the main screen that the new photos have been added or the old ones have been deleted.
4)Click save in the right panel. Bridge will then update the Adobe Web Gallery Folder. Then go into that folder and check name of html file. Rename it if you like (make sure it doesnt have the same name as any other html files that's in your website root folder).
5) Then select your new html file and the resources folder in your Adobe Web Gallery folder and right click and copy.
6) Paste both files into your website root folder. You dont need to do anything to your html code in dreamweaver at all as you have somehow already created a link in there when you embedded your gallery originally!!!
7) Then check the page on internet explorer in dreamweaver to test it and bingo it should work!! It worked for me :-)
Hope this helps?
Cheers
Anna

Help! problem displaying Web Photo Gallery in IE and Windows browser

Hi all,
Sorry if this issue is old news but, i have tried to find the answer in the archives first, with no luck.
It's about this;
I am working with Mac OSX 10.4.11 and Photoshop CS2.
Recently i haveust published Web Photo Gallery on my website.
It looks good in Safari and Firefox. But when viewed in Internet Explorer it's totally different layout. Thumbnails are shifted to the middle of the frame, and it is not a pretty sight.
Can't find the way to fix it...
here is the link
http://www.exornocreations.com/html/gallery/pendants/PENDANTSindex.html
If someone here has a clue how to go about it and wants to share a good tip i would be eternally grateful.
Many thanks,
Karmela

>There are more browsers than just IE that will have trouble with this page.
Which ones?
I am currently building a site for a client and I have a page which should play a Movie inside an iFrame.
My HTML includes heights and widths and is as follows (angled brackets have been removed for display purposes in the Forum):
"iframe id="movie_play_iFrame" name="movie_play_iFrame" src="../movie/Movie-screen.gif" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" align="middle" height="269" width="398" /iframe"
This works perfectly in the latest available version of Safari, Firefox, Netscape, AOL, and Opera.
The only one that it does NOT work in is IE.
In IE, the movie plays all right but it does so in a new window and not in the required position on the page (which is inside the iFrame).

How to upload photoshop Web photo Gallery to iWeb 1.1.2

I have a great iWeb Photography site and it's linked to the web through my domain name only- just thru Forwarding. I want to use the Photoshop CS2Web Gallery feature and have created a sample folder. How do I link it to open in my website?
So far, I created the box, chose to hyperlink it to an external page and typed in page name that the Web Photo Gallery gave it and then I go thru the website- it goes to the gallery home page, but shows no photos, just the little question mark boxes. I'm pretty non-technical about this. Any help is great. I can't find the answers through Adobe help. I thought this was going to be easier...

Hi, I too, am a beginner and I'm trying to create a simple
website and want to include a photo gallery as well. I just
discovered the "Create a Web Photo Gallery" in Photoshop CS3 and I
was just wondering the same thing. How do you get it in into
Dreamweaver and into your site? I hope someone answers this
question.

Automate web photo gallery in PS Elements 7

New user here. I bought Photoshop Elements 7 specifically for the web photo gallery, which works fine in Elements 6 (but I don't own a copy of 6).
My installation of Elements 7 has the Automation tools option in the File menu greyed out. It looks like this option is now a plug-in? If so, where can I get this? Was this option excluded from Elements 7?
Any help will be really useful. Thanks

Thanks for replying, Jim.
In Photoshop CS3, the Automate option in the File menu is active even with no images open. I assumed this is the same in Elements 7, and am told that Elements 6 is the same.
Using Windows XP.
Steps :
1. Open Elements to splash screen, select Edit (This is the only option in the splash screen for which the Automate Tools is listed in the following screen)
2. When the Edit screen loaded, opened File menu, and Automation Tools is listed but is greyed out.
Tried opening images -> no change
No album is (created or) selected.

Web Photo Gallery in CS4

I know the Web Photo Gallery has been removed from PS CS4 and put into Bridge. However, I created a few templates I would like to keep. Is there any way besides using CS3 that I might do this in Bridge? Is there going to be a way in Bridge to create additional web modules?

Cindy:
If you dig really deeply (10 levels down!) in your Library folder you will find the templates for the new Bridge Galleries. You can also use the Lightroom templates in Bridge CS4.
Library/Applications Support/Adobe/Bridge CS4 Extensions/Adobe output Module/mediagallery/resources/templates/07lightroomgallery/styles

Using CS3 Web Photo Gallery Control Panel in Bridge CS4?

I found where the styles are located in the library, and it doesn't look like the old templates will work with the new Output feature of Bridge. I want to use my old templates from CS3 that I have customized, and would like to use them with Bridge. I have installed the extra Goodies, but they will only work through Photoshop, not Bridge.
Is there a way to have Bridge>Tools>Photoshop bring up the legacy version control panel for the Web Photo Gallery?
Thank you:)

Hi Paul,
I'm not a Lightroom user, but the new Web Photo Galleries that come in CS4 are in Bridge. They are Lightroom templates, so there's probably not much difference. I just tried building a gallery in CS4 Bridge with 35 files, and I could not preview more than 10 either through Bridge or in a browser by pressing the preview button. The only way to preview the entire gallery before uploading was by saving the folder, then opening the index file in a browser.
Web Photo Galleries can be created in Photoshop and Bridge CS4 just like they were in previous versions of Photoshop and Bridge. You do need to configure it using the optional Goodies files since it is not part of the initial installation. It's real easy. The link I posted above has more information. Here it is again:
http://generatex.com/cs4.html
If you do that, you'll have the best of both worlds. You'll have the option of creating web photo galleries with html templates in Bridge or Photoshop CS4, previewing them easily (regardless of size), and have the option of using the new Lightroom flash templates in Bridge CS4.

Flash-Web Photo Gallery

I am trying to create a flash web photo galler using the Automate>Web Photo Gallery in CS2.
I want to mix the features of the 2 existing options.
In Flash Gallery 1, the thumbnails are listed as small icons in multiple lines and are magnified when the mouse hovers over them, like the dock in OS X.
In Flash Gallery 2, the meta data listed in the xml file is displayed only if you explicitly click on the info button, and it is below the picture.
I need these 2 options together. The rest of the options are not a problem I can go either way.
Is there another Flash Gallery that will combine these two options?
If not:
Is there a way to modify the flash file to accomodate this?

Google "Flash Gallery Templates", you'll see 2.4M links.
Back to levonk's original question... sounds like you're trying to do what I'm trying to... alter the Flash files used to generate the Web Photo Gallery Flash Gallery 2.
Here's my question, similar to yours:
How do i open the "gallery.swf" file to alter Photoshop Flash Web Photo Gallery?
Built Web Photo Gallery in Photoshop CS2's Automate. It turned out OK, and I made adjustments in the "index.html" and "galleryconfig.xml" files in a text editor (BBE).
Now, I'd like to alter the template's .swf file but can't open it as it's "protected".
It would be nice to be able to set up a new template that does exactly what I intend, without altering the other files. But I can't open the protected "gallery.swf" file to make changes. Can someone help? Does Adobe have an unprotected copy of that file I can fiddle with? Is there some "trick" to open a copy of that file? I could learn a lot and make it easy to repeat results for a site. Any assistance most appreciated!

Web Photo Gallery Descriptions

I have just started playing with Web Photo Gallery.
I built one with the Slideshow. I couldn't figure out where the descriptions were supposed to come from, I thought I could enter them in Bridge somewhere, but didn't figure that out.
So, I opened them up in Dreamweaver and added descriptions to each of the files. Problem is that as the slideshow goes on, only the first description shows up, the rest, the file number changes, but not the description.
What did I do wrong? What should I do next time?
Thanks,
Kirk
PS, if you are curious, here is the slideshow that isn't working:
http://www.dirt-dog.com/doghouse/

You can enter the descriptions using the "File Info" properties for each photo, using Adobe Bridge or Photoshop. I have encountered a similar problem in that my descriptions were not always showing up in the pages generated by the Web Photo Gallery.
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. This is a bug in the Web Photo Gallery code...you can see it in the Javascript code that it generates for each page.

Web photo gallery mit Photoshop 5.0

Wie erstellt arbeitssparend man eine Web Photo Gallery mit Photoshop 5.0?

SUCCESS!!!! This worked:
I have found this on the Adobe Support site:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402781
Crash when you run Web Photo Gallery on Mac OS X v10.5 (Photoshop CS2, Photoshop Elements 4)
ISSUE
When you attempt to run Web Photo Gallery in Adobe Photoshop CS2 or Adobe Photoshop Elements 4 on Mac OS X v10.5.x (Leopard), the application crashes.
REASON
The Web Photo Gallery plug-in that shipped with Photoshop CS2 and Photoshop Elements 4 is not compatible with Mac OS X v10.5.x.
SOLUTION
Replace the Web Photo Gallery plug-in with the new version.
Quit Photoshop CS2 and Photoshop Elements 4.
Download the new version of the Web Photo Gallery plug-in from the following link:
WebContactSheetIIplugin.zip
If your web browser did not automatically extract the plug-in (WebContactSheetII.plugin) from the downloaded .zip file, double-click the .zip file to extract the plug-in.
In the Finder, navigate to the Automate folder:
For Photoshop CS2, navigate to /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS2/Plug-Ins/Adobe Photoshop Only/Automate.
For Photoshop Elements 4, navigate to /Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0/Plug-Ins/Automate.
Remove the WebContactSheetII plug-in from the Automate folder. You might want to save this plug-in in case you need to revert back to it.
Drag the new WebContactSheetII plug-in that you extracted into the Automate folder.
Re-open Photoshop CS2 or Photoshop Elements and run Web Photo Gallery.
Note: If you are using Photoshop Elements 4, then do not choose File > Create Web Photo Gallery to use this feature after you update the plug-in. Instead, choose File > Automation Tools > Web Photo Gallery.
