Hi geeks ;)

I'm trying to get this running on a BP site and can't seem to get it to work.

This is the script: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.htm

This is my page: http://www.ultimateweddingdj.co.uk/wrc-test.html - you can see from the source code that the js is there, I've changed the image names, I've uploaded the images and I've added a blank div (< div id="fadeshow1"></div >) as per instructions at the bottom of the page....but it's not working.

Anyone got any ideas?

Cheers,

Giles

Hi Giles,

I am no expert but don't you need to put the full path to where the images are uploaded? ie the /user/image1.jpg etc

Correct, i.e.:


imagearray: [
["/user/image1.jpg", "", "", "image1"],
["/user/image2.jpg", "", "", "image2"] //<--no trailing comma after very last image element!
],

Also:


<script type="text/javascript" src="fadeslideshow.js">

Should be:


<script type="text/javascript" src="/user/fadeslideshow.js">

Hi Giles,

I guess you've fixed it by now, we had to take off our slideshow when it clashed with some hidden code in the Affiliate Window tracking, it caused our checkout to lock up and nobody could complete orders, hope you don't have any similar problems.

I'm looking at using JCarousel if I ever get time to implement it!

D'oh...yes, of course! Funnily enough, I'd remembered to do that yesterday when I was starting the process but forgot today when I was starting again.

That's fixed it...I knew it would be something simple!

@John - it's not an ecommerce site so hopefully will be ok. I'll remember that JCarosel one if I ever need to dump Fadeshow.

Cheers

Giles
