Hi
I got some errors and would like to have some hints on how to best implement a virtual tour inside a joomla article.

I tried

Code: Select all

 <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8">

		<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.luxmap.lu/scripts/p2q_embed_object.js">
		</script>
		<style type="text/css" title="Default">

				font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
				color: #000000; 
			}
			body {
			  font-size: 10pt;
			  background : #ffffff; 
			}
			table,tr,td {
				font-size: 10pt;
				border-color : #777777;
				background : #dddddd; 
				color: #000000; 
				border-style : solid;
				border-width : 1px;
			}
			h1 {
				font-size: 18pt;
			}
			h2 {
				font-size: 14pt;
			}
			.warning {
				font-weight: bold;
			}
		</style>	
	</head>
	<body>
		<h1>Parc Le&apos;h Adventures</h1>
		<p>
		<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
			if ((window.p2q_Version) && (window.p2q_Version>=2.0)) {
				var flashvars="";
				p2q_EmbedFlash('images/stories/videos/U1334-1.1.1_fs.swf','640','360','allowFullScreen','true','FlashVars',flashvars);
				
				// Check to see if the version meets the requirements for playback
				if (!DetectFlashVer(9,0,0)) {
					document.write('<p class="warning">This content requires Adobe Flash Player Version 9 or higher. '
								 + '<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflash/">Get Flash<\/a><\/p>');
				}
			} else {
				document.writeln('<p class="warning">p2q_embed_object.js is not included or it is too old! Please copy this file into your html directory.<\/p>');
			}
//-->

	</body>
</html>
This is the normal template ggk File. the problem I ran into: The links inside the pano can't be followed.
The VT is defined without a path structure to allow finding independant of client directory structure.

It works here
http://aventure.lu/images/stories/video ... .1_fs.html

I already changed in the code in the joomla article to find the basic swf file

Code: Select all

p2q_EmbedFlash('images/stories/videos/U1334-1.1.1_fs.swf';
It works but he can't find my other panos if not inside a html body

How to get this result inside a joomla article.
I would really appreciate any support.

PS. the javascript is not a must have. Its just that I used the basic pano2vr template as a beginning point.

Hi back

Thanks for all those already having looked at this. Here my solution : IFRAMES

Code: Select all

<iframe src ="http://www.aventure.lu/images/stories/videos/U1334-1.1.1_fs.swf" width="100%" height="100%" SCROLLING=NO FRAMEBORDER=0>
  <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
Alternatively on can input the html page

Code: Select all

<iframe src ="http://www.aventure.lu/images/stories/videos/U1334-1.1.1_fs.html" width="100%" height="100%" SCROLLING=NO FRAMEBORDER=0>
  <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
But beside all
I needed to integrate the COMPLETE path, not just part of it.
Works now. http://www.aventure.lu

I use the following and ignore the script altogether

Code: Select all

<!--Begin Virtual Tour Code-->
<object id="unique_id" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="375" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" align="middle"> 
<param name="movie" value="http://www.linktoyourtour/tour.swf" /> 
<param name="quality" value="high" /> 
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /> 
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object id="unique_id" width="500" height="375" data="http://www.linktoyourtour/tour.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" align="middle"> 
<param name="pluginurl" value="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" /> 
<param name="quality" value="high" /> 
<param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /> 
<!--<![endif]--> 
<img src="http://www.linktoyourtourimagefornonflash/tourpic.jpg" alt="Adobe Flash Required to view Tours" title="Adobe Flash Required to view Tours" />
<p style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" target="_blank">Adobe Flash required to view Tours - Download here</a>
<!--[if !IE]>--> </object> <!--<![endif]--> </object> 
<!--End Virtual Tour Code--> 
Change the width/height attributes to fit and use full paths within templates and links. The alternate image and link to flash download will be shown if there is no flash plugin in the browser.

Hi
Try this:

Code: Select all

<iframe width="800" height="600" src="http://www.hopkimedia.co.uk/bis" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>
	<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>
Replace the Url with your own and set the correct size for your panorama.

Thank you for the replay Hopki.

Has anyone had any success in trying to add HTML5 to a Joomla article? I've been pulling my hair out trying to get this to work.

I have tried the code from ambientlight which is great for a normal .swf but I'm wanting HTML5 and .swf so it can be viewed on PC and ipad/iphones.

I have also tried iFrames which work but have heard that ipads don't like iFrames.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Craig

Hi,
When using an iFrame use this:

Code: Select all

<iframe src="pano.html" name="panorama" width="640" height="480" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" frameborder="0" style="float:left; margin-left:0px" allowfullscreen="true" webkitallowfullscreen="true" mozallowfullscreen="true"></iframe>
Replace pano.html with your own html page and set the name and size.
The scrolling=no will stop the iPad iframe problem and the webkit fullscreen code will allow the panorama or Object to brake out of the webpage. Desktop only as iDevice does not support the fullscreen API.
Regards,
Hopki
