    Default Porta/Preview Question

    Hello-I'm a new BV user, so far so good. I have created an album with Porta and Simple Viewer then inserted it from BV images folder. It does not appear in BV, when I preview the page I get the box which is empty except the filename. Am I correct that the images album won't show until the pages are published? I have not signed up for VodaHost yet, waiting till I have my website completed (or nearly so).
    Thanks

    Hi Ed
    I used lightbox. Then doubleclick to select images, Lightbox properties, add, "all files" then the file "index.html" then ok. The images are in the file(I checked to make sure). Thanks

    You can't add a viewer inside another viewer. You will have to use an I-Frame to show the slide show you created with porta.

    Ed-
    Is an I- Frame an Inline frame? Newbie question, I know.
    Thanks

    Yes, I should also add that in order to use your viewer you will need to up load that file to the server (so you will need an account). You will have to add another folder to your public_html folder and up load it to there so that the viewer will not try to load as your home page as both are named index.

    Thank you for the help. I believe I have a better idea about the process now, although no guarantees from my end. Appreciate it!
