Cooliris > Crossdomain.xml Script Prob...WHERE EXACTLY???

Take this Crossdomain.xml file below (save the text below in a file using wordpad, notepad, or other "text" editing program and save the file as Crossdomain.xml) Remove any extension, because your text editor might save it as Crossdomain.xml.txt - normally choose "all files" fixes this but you need to verify your extensions before uploading the file. Upload this file into the root folder of the server on which you have created your feed, with your domains listed in place of the place holders in the file below.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy
SYSTEM "http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd">

<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="www.website1.com" />
<allow-access-from domain="www.website2.com" />
</cross-domain-policy>

If you are creating one feed to access both sites you need the crossdomain.xml file - a simpler solution in your case would be to create individual feeds for each site, as far as I know the Crossdomain.xml is not required if accessing feeds in your own domain.

Not in the template code. It needs to a file physically located in the directory structure of your site. If you are allowed FTP access to your server, you will find a folder called "wwwroot", or whatever they call it - it could even be plain "www" - that would be a good place to put your XML file. If not, ask an administrator to put your XML file there for you. You might even have a sub-folder off the "wwwroot" folder allocated for your blog with a redirect. Check if this is so.

Looking at your site, you also need to fix a couple of things with your feed to make it compliant with all readers. Go to http://www.feedvalidator.org/ and enter the URL to your site/s for recommendations on how to make your feed fully compliant.

I only found this yesterday and I have been looking at all sorts of addons for Joomla to give my site a more polished look. I am not a programmer, or coding expert - but I have more time than most to fiddle with these things. I hope this helps & I am not going to get shouted at by an administrator for passing on my limited knowledge.

It appears the Crossdomain.xml file is required at all times as I deleted mine and my Cooliris stopped working - root is where it goes. We live and learn :)

@MsBurb - have you tried using the Express Builder for Blogger?

I have done some reading & apparently there is a script that needs to be included in your html which will reference a feed on another server, on which your rss feed will also reside. This is specifically for people that have no control over the actual server on which they want to run the application i.e. cooliris. The downside is that there will be a delay as you are essentially calling data from a 3rd domain. You basically need a "friend" who will host the feed on their server, as far as I understand.
