Hello All,
I have same issue with BANNER_ROTATOR_with_Auto_Delay_Time_V3_new from Flasden and wordpress theme TheOrderOfTheWeb developed by Web Hosting Fan.
I can't succeed with installation it just do not show up on the header. There are few main files for the flash slide show (banner.swf; data.xml; swfobject.js; index.html). If I run swf or HTML file which is in package everything works perfectly. But when I am trying to hardcode in to my wordpress header.php file it just doesn't show anything.
Pasting some code from files with which ones I'm playing.
>>>data.xml<<<
