is it possible the configuration for the block changed?

have you cleared cache?

cleared cache, but that did nothing.

Here is the code that shows up in safari where the description SHOULD be:
</php echo $img['description']?>

Does this mean it is not finding the description in the database?

the configuration of the block could not have changed since it was a new install yesterday and nothing was done to alter it.

Can you send a screenshot or is this online somewhere I can see it?

You may also want to make sure that line 20 of /packages/flash_gallery/blocks/flash_gallery/tools/gallery_data.php looks exactly like this:

<![CDATA[<?php echo $img['description']?>]]>

that did it ryan! I'm not sure why, but that line in my code had "&lt;/" after the CDATA and before the php and not what you had. I put what you told me in it's place and BINGO it worked!

thank you so much!
