I'm trying to get the Cooliris Photo Wall to work on my webpage, however I get stuck at a particular step regarding a crossdomain.xml. Apparently, I need to put this file in the webserver's root, so I tried putting it in my subdomain, vietknight.x10hosting.com/crossdomain.xml

It didn't work, and it still says that I need the crossdomain.xml file so i'm assuming it has to be under x10hosting.com/crossdomain.xml

I am wondering if you guys support Cooliris, I've tried to do some searching for any related posts on the forum, but not many people have been using Cooliris.

Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Here's the website:

http://developer.cooliris.com/?p=embed

and my test page:

http://vietknight.x10hosting.com/Cooliris.html

Any help is much appreciated.

I am getting page not found error. If you could check up the url and post the correct url, it could be helpful.

Sorry I was doing some further testing. The new URL is:

http://vietknight.x10hosting.com/test.html

I stumbled upon another site that lets you test the Cooliris Wall with any RSS URL's.

http://www.imedstudios.com/labs/cooliris/

For example, I have a link here that would work:

http://picasaweb.google.com/vietknight/BNhYearEndKindergartenPerformance#

After examining, that the imedstudios site, I found that at their domain root, you can find an existing crossdomain.xml file:

http://www.imedstudios.com/crossdomain.xml

Since, the xhosting server lacks this file on the root domain, it doesn't give Cooliris to access my rss links.
(http://x10hosting.com/crossdomain.xml non-existent), however I do have it on my subdomain level (http://vietknight.x10hosting.com/crossdomain.xml)

I'm not familiar with crossdomain.xml's very much other than the fact that you need them for some reason.

Also I found that if you use their Flickr feed, it actually shows your images up without the crossdomain (I'm not sure why this happens, I guess it has something to do with the API feed). The problem I get with this is that flickr has a limit for the amount of photos you can display as well as permission issues even though the photos are set to public.)

Here's the cooliris on my site using flickr rss.
