I have an "jpeg slideshow" on a HTML page created using Javascript. It works fine in Firefox, Chrome & Safari but loads slowly in Seamonkey and does not load at all in Internet Explorer. The slideshow does have 46 images .... Is that a problem ?


Here is the page on the website:
Here is the code with the Javascript enabled "jpeg slideshow":

Assuming your issue is just with IE8, remove the "," after your last image, and it should work there.

Code:
...
		["[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.victorrossi.com/44.jpg"[/URL]],
		["[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.victorrossi.com/45.jpg"[/URL]],
		["[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.victorrossi.com/46.jpg"[/URL]][COLOR=yellow red][b],[/b][/color]
],
displaymode: {type:'auto', pause:500, cycles:0, wraparound:false},
persist: false,
fadeduration: 500,

...

By the way: I got the tip from a thread over at Dynamic Drive the publishers of the Fade script:

As far as Seamonkey goes, it is possible its having trouble with the many images. Try removing some, and see if it loads any faster.

Thanks Vacunita !

I tend to always add / delete a comma somewhere or accidentally add / delete a [.

thanks ! It works now in all browsers :)
