Controls not showing

Hi there - transferring my site to Weebly. Code that worked on my previous site, to have the controls in the heading, are not working on my new Weebly site. The controls are missing. I have overridden the default graphics directory, but it's a no-go. Both my old site and the new one do not allow for uploads to go into folders. All of the uploads go into one general area. So the js, css, and all graphics and outlines are all in the same location. So I don't understand why my code works on one site, but not the other, when the situation is exactly the same. I'm so confused, and appreciate your help. Thanks!

The page in question is http://co-mastersingers.weebly.com/past-concerts.html

Don't know if this is necessary, but the old page is http://www.co-mastersingers.com/Pages/PastConcerts.aspx

Re: Controls not showing

As I see you have missing 3 files:

Code: Select all

Re: Controls not showing

I have set the graphics folder to http://co-mastersingers.weebly.com/1/1/6/7/11671533/

I am unable to make a graphics folder beneath that directory. So it seems that overriding the default graphics directory doesn't really work, and that I must go through the css and manually override each reference. That's a bummer. I guess I don't understand what overriding the default directory does then. Can someone explain it to me?

Re: Controls not showing

Well, okay. I haven't had a clear explanation, but I'm guessing that overriding the default directory will not work in my case because I cannot make sub-folders. Thus I will have to manually change the css file. I wish understood better. But it will be easier to just go in and change it. Thank you so much for your time.

Re: Controls not showing

I think the real answer is that you should dump any web host that doesn't allow you to create subdirectories. This is something that's supported by virtually any general-purpose web host.

Highslide JS is difficult to modify so that all of its supporting files can be in one location, and it's certainly not the only such script. Lots of manual fiddling and tweaking required.
