These variables tell Flashblocks a few important things.

flashblocks_path is the one variable that you need to change so that flashblocks works on your server.

If you are uploading to a server:
Open the flashblocks_configuration.txtfile.
make sure this variable looks like this:

Code: :

&flashblocks_path=&

upload all the swf, php and txt files and the flashblocks directory.

If you are running Flashblocks on a local machine with PHP installed:
You may need to change the variable to look something like this:

Code: :

&flashblocks_path=localhost/website/&

Note that you can also set these variables on the _root of Flash and remove the flashblocks_configuration.txt file completely. It would look like this:

Code: :

DataDir = "flashblocks/"; imagesDir = "flashblocks/images/"; imagesResizedDir = "flashblocks/imagesResized/"; flashblocksCache = "false"; flashblocks_path = "";
