How to add MegaZine3
Step1
First Download the required files and host it.I prefer Dropbox.
Then copy the below code and paste in the html/javascript gadget.thats it your flash page flip is in action.
Make sure that you change the following changes that i have highlighted with red color.
To change the image sources go to mz3v2.0.10\megazine\src.

<div id="megazine">

<h2 style="margin-top: 20px;">
<em>Flash Player 9</em>

  3. sorry for replying late...did you download the files from hotlink.....Just extract the rar file and upload the entire unpacked folder to your server.and copy the following locations megazine.swf,megazine.mz3,swfobject.js,expressinstall.swf

    if you are using blogger means i recommend you to use dropbox(look links that are red highlighted )
    if you have any more problem dont hesitate to ask me ,i will help you mate

  6. ok. all files in same folder. new problem: big red box w/this text in it:

    Could not load XML data

    This means the path to the book's definition is invalid. If you did not define a custom path, the file must be named 'megazine.mz3' and must be located in the same folder as the 'megazine.swf' file. If you did define a custom path, please check again if it is correct.
    If you are using an IIS server, make sure the .mz3 and .asul file extensions are registered, or use the xmlFile and book@asulextension settings to avoid these extensions.

    The actual error was:
    Error #2032



    Can you help me? This is frustrating!

  7. first thing i want to know is,are you trying to install in blogger or some other platform.

    if so you are using blogger try to copy the above code and paste it(the files will be hosted in my dropbox) and tell me is it working for you.

    if you still find problem in installing ask me mate
