Issues with Tags not opening in new page and rollover text color

12 years ago

I am trying to use the cloud for my website, and I am having a couple of issues. One of which is that the rollover text color doesn't seem to be working and secondly when I click on one of the tags instead of opening in a new window it opens in the same window. I have the settings set when I made the cloud, but I am not sure why they aren't working. They both work in the cloud editor, but I am having the same issue if I open the cloud in a different window. I'm sorry if its a simple solution, I just started using this. The cloud link is
http://cdn.tagul.com/clouds/32868@2

Any help would be very much appreciated, thank you!

You are using the wrong link. The link you provided is SVG version of your cloud.

Try using this: http://tagul.com/preview?id=32868@2
It is working as intended.

Thank you for the help, that definitely fixes it in when I open it through your site. I've update the link for my website, but the issue is now that the cloud isn't the right dimensions, is there anyway to use the preview so that it takes on the right size, and that it has the rollover and opening in a new page capabilities? Right now I have the cloud set to be 890px by 253px, which are the settings I set up for the cloud, but when I use the http://tagul.com/preview?id=32868@2
The cloud wants to be retains all that black border space above and below, is there anyway I can remove that and resize it?
Sorry for all the questions.

Thank you again for the help.

Under the Cloud editor portion, the section "place on a webpage", and there its set to give the SVG version instead of the http://tagul.com/preview?id=32868@2.

Alex, thanks for the help, but is this just something that I won't be able to do? Should I just accept the lack of rollover text color and tags opening in new page if I want it to be certain dimensions?

Sure not. The link I sent just an example of embedding your cloud. You can see the code behind it and embed into your web page with any dimensions.

I am able to embed it, and I am set whatever dimensions I want for the box that it is in, but the cloud within the box still keeps the black portion above and below, and a scroll bar is added to the window (it is still 600px in height in a 250px box).

Try percentage embedding like below:

<html>
   <head>
      <title>Tagul cloud</title>
   </head>
   <body>
      <script
         type="text/javascript"
         src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.1/swfobject.js"></script>
      <script type="text/javascript">
         swfobject.embedSWF(
            "http://cdn.tagul.com/tagul.swf",
            "myCloud",
            "100%",
            "100%",
            "10.0.0",
            "playerProductInstall.swf",
            {id: "http://cdn.tagul.com/clouds/32868@2", popup: true, openLinksInNewWindow: false},
            {allowscriptaccess: "always"}
         );
      </script>
      <div id="myCloud" width="100%" height="100%">
         <p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer">
            <img
               src="http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif"
               alt="Get Adobe Flash player" />
         </a></p>
      </div>
   </body>
</html>
