 * Hi all,
 * Iv tried to add the nextgen slideshow, have added the necessary files into the
   correct locations, when i run the page I get the message: **The Flash Player 
   and a browser with Javascript support are needed..**
 * I have checked the source for this and get the following javascript code:
 *     ```
       <script type="text/javascript" defer="defer">
       var so3_1 = {
       	params : {
       		wmode : "opaque",
       		allowfullscreen : "true",
       		bgcolor : "#000000"},
       	flashvars : {
       		file : "http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fwordpress%2Findex.php%3Fcallback%3Dimagerotator%26gid%3D3",
       		shownavigation : "false",
       		overstretch : "true",
       		rotatetime : "10",
       		backcolor : "0x000000",
       		frontcolor : "0xFFFFFF",
       		lightcolor : "0xCC0000",
       		width : "320",
       		height : "240"},
       	attr : {
       		styleclass : "slideshow",
       		name : "so3"},
       	start : function() {
       		swfobject.embedSWF("http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/imagerotator.swf", "so3_1", "320", "240", "7.0.0", false, this.flashvars, this.params , this.attr );
       	}
       }
       so3_1.start();
       </script>
       ```
   
 * were might i be going wrong with this?
 * Thanks in advance
 * Kyle
