I just bought a really great skin from dnnskin.net.  I am happy with the design except there is an image rotator that is displayed on the demo site that apparently isn't apart of the site I purchased. ( they never made that clear which is a whole other chestnut I wont' crack here).

Anywho, so I ask them if I can get the image rotator and they give me the file for it. It contains a .js file, some pngs and an html file. I ask them exactly how to install it and they tell me " please try to add the html code through the Text/HTML module, then add the scripts in the Text/HTML module settings/ Advanced Settings/ Header ,thanks."

Well, I created an HTML module on my home page, went in and clicked on "source" copied all the HTML code from the document into the text field within the HTML module saved it off, and then went into the module settings and pasted the .js code (all of it) into the header field. (which is weird).

when I saved the module and took a look at it, it just displays all the javascript. I wrote them back and asked what I was doing wrong and they wrote "

Thank you for your messages, as we declared it's not a module, we just add it through the HTML module such as below:

</div>

I then pasted that code into the module and it still doesn't work. What am I doing wrong? I can't get them to help me at all.

Please help!

If you do paste it make sure you click on source delete everything and then paste. If you paste on HTML mode it adds a <p> tag in the beginning and end and it treats it as text and not script.

I would email dnnskin.net and point them to this post.

Also state what version of DNN you are using.
