album list xml?

amyg

Hi all,
thanks to the developers of the Simpleviewer themes, I was able to attach a flash slideshow/gallery to my album pages.
Now, I'm trying to pull xml from the album list as well (and insert it into a flash menu)
I've been hacking away to no avail.
I understand how to change the xml variables to suit my needs - I just can't figure out how to create 2 seperate xml files.
- I hope this makes some sort of sense - my brain is numb at this point ;-)

Any thoughts, anyone? I'll be happy to share the final results - I think this would be something that others would appreciate.
Thanks in advance!

I worked it out - sort of...

So, what did you do?

I took a break! When I came back it was obvious.
I just adjusted the theme index page to output the xml - just like the album page, but I changed the variables to suit the needs of the swf file I was trying to use.
(found here http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=266583)

Now - it would be nice if I could add the gallery menu to the same page as the albums - but that's probably way beyond me.
At this point, i just want to finish this!

Oh - fyi - this is the code I changed:
`<?php<br />
} else {

header ('Content-Type: application/xml');

echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

'; ?>

<?php while (next_album()): ?>



<?php echo getAlbumThumb();?>

<?php echo getAlbumTitle();?>

<?php echo getAlbumLinkURL(); ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>



<?php <br />
}

?>`
