What gives? Previously my Slideshow was working just fine... All of a sudden I am seeing the default slideshow (Smugmug Default Slideshow).

What is going on?

    Wow.. Very interesting..

    Smugmug pros please look into this:

    Visit: http://www.talerico-photography.com/

    With Firefox... Then Visit with Chrome.. Very weird.

    Confirm that Firefix/Safari works fine.. Firing up my Windows 7 VM to ensure IE works.

    Edit : IE works just fine.. Seems to be a issue with Chrome.

    Perhaps Flash isn't installed properly for Chrome. I'd suggest reinstalling Flash. The slideshow uses flash.

    Flash works just fine. Seems like the request is malformed or isn't being executed correctly for chrome.

    Tried what jfriend mentioned.. Still no Joy with Google Chrome.

    Every other browser works as expected...

    Thoughts?

    Crazy. I'll find out why it's doing this. Stay tuned.

    This is the HTML. It specifies a different AlbumID and AlbumKey in the object part of the HTML vs. the Embed part of the HTML. Since different browsers use one or the other, different browsers would display different galleries. This code needs to be fixed to use the same AlbumID and AlbumKey in both places. I don't have Chrome here, but this is certainly a problem that needs to be fixed.
    <object>
<param name="movie" value="http://www.smugmug.com/ria/ShizamSlides-2007090601.swf">
<param name="flashvars" value="[COLOR=red]AlbumID=2504559&AlbumKey=fO3Dg[/COLOR]&transparent=true&crossFadeSpeed=500&clickUrl=http://www#46;smugmug#46;com">

<param name="allowNetworking" value="all">
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always">
<embed src="[URL="http://www.dgrin.com/view-source:http://www.smugmug.com/ria/ShizamSlides-2007090601.swf"]http://www.smugmug.com/ria/ShizamSlides-2007090601.swf[/URL]" flashvars="[COLOR=red]AlbumID=13513525&AlbumKey=wYogy[/COLOR]&randomize=true&showButtons=false&clickToImage=false&showLogo=false&showThumbs=false&transparent=true&crossFadeSpeed=500" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" allowNetworking="all" width="1024" height="683">
</embed></object>

    And, sure enough, the gallery with AlbumID=2504559 is a cmac gallery. I'm guessing this was a copy/paste from a piece of sample code error.

    I fixed KJT's code. And now Chrome displays his show properly.

    John, how the heck can you be so smart and thorough at 715am on a Sunday morning <img src="https://us.v-cdn.net/6029383/emoji/lol3.gif&quot; border="0" alt="" >

    Thanks!

    That's what got me interested in CSS in the first place, years ago, I've always liked figuring things out. I'm not a programmer, as you know, though :)

    My slideshow on my SmugMug home page is not displaying in the Chrome dev build, and also, the photo badge I have on my personal home page will not load in Chrome either. Both display fine in Firefox.

    SmugMug page: http://dberthia.smugmug.com
    Personal site: http://www.davesden.com

    Looking at the Javascript console on my SmugMug page, I see "Failed to load resource eng_end6.js".

    Chances are, you don't have flash properly installed for that Chrome build. You can go here and see what it says: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html.

    What is even wierd'er is that Chrome use to work just fine! Very weird!

    So there was some more differences.. Figure I would post a little bit more info...

    From what I can tell, the top value is what Chrome looks at (possibly it executes in a procedure fashion and ignores the embed code?) and the embed code is what Firefox,IE and Safari execute ignoring the param elements.
    <!-- Chrome -- >
<param name="movie" value="http://www.smugmug.com/ria/ShizamSlides-2007090601.swf">
<param name="flashvars" value="AlbumID=13513525&AlbumKey=wYogy&randomize=true&showButtons=false&clickToImage=false&showLogo=false&showThumbs=false&transparent=true&crossFadeSpeed=500" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" allowNetworking="all" width="1024" height="683">

<! -- IE/Firefox/Safari -->

    Went there, and ran the Flash uninstaller. Restarted the browser, and now it looks OK. Strange.

    Depending upon how the Chrome and Flash installers work, you may have to reinstall Flash each time you get a new Chrome build.

    Well, to the best of my knowledge, you can't do that. Anytime you try to run a Flash installer in Chrome, you get a message saying the latest version of Flash is already included in the browser.

    Oh, didn't know that. Then, it's probably an issue with Chrome/Flash. Perhaps you should report it.

    I scoured the Chrome bug tracking system and found this workaround, which fixed the problem for me:

    Workaround:
    Use the system version of flash plugin instead of the integrated one.
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/839/cpsid_83950.html#main_I_am_a_developer__designer__or_advanced_user_that_creates_or_tests_Flash_content__How_can_I_run_debugger_or_alternate_versions_of_Flash_Player_in_Google_Chrome_

    Steps:
    1) Type chrome://plugins in the address bar
    2) Click details on the right-hand side
    3) Find Flash in the list
    4) You should see there are two version of flash
    5) Disable the one end with gcswf32.dll in location
    6) Enable the one end with NPSWF32.dll in location
    7) Try accessing the flash site again

    In case there is only the integrated version (gcswf32.dll), disable it and go to
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
    and install the system version
