Once you have recieved your "product key", copy and paste it into your "config.xml" file in the bottom line entitled <ProductKey>. Save and upload your file.
You're done! The menu has now been installed and is ready to work.

Adding FS2 to a Webpage

Add the following code to any page you would like FS2 on.
Copy and Paste the object code inside this box into the <body> tags in your webpage (html, php, asp, aspx, cfm, etc.):
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,0,0" width="480" height="150" align="top"> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /> <param name="movie" value="fs2.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /> <param name="scale" value="noscale" /> <param name="salign" value="lt" /> <param name="wmode" value="transparent" /> <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> <param name="flashvars" value="frunderXmlFile=config.xml"> <embed src="fs2.swf" FlashVars="frunderXmlFile=config.xml" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="lt" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="480" height="150" align="top" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="https://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /> </object>
That is it! But, there are a couple of things to keep in mind. You have to keep the structure together. In other words the folder where the swf is located also needs to have the xml file and your images.
Use the following object code generator if you need help with your object tag.

Customizing your showcase

Name your showcase images in the following format "showcaseImage1.jpg", "showcaseImage2.jpg", etc. Name the showcase thumbnails in the following format "thumb1.jpg", "thumb2.jpg", etc.

Note: FlashShowcase 2 only supports jpg or jpeg file extensions. This is a limitation of Macromedia Flash, not FlashShowcase 2.
Open your "config.xml" file in your favorite text editor. Change only the information inside of the tags.

Example: <tag>12345</tag> In this example only change the information in bold. If you change anything else, the integrity of the xml file will be lost.
All changes for FlashShowcase 2 are commented inside of the config.xml file. If you have any other questions, feel free to post them on our forums.
