Hi,

I am in dire need of assistance, and you seem very talented when it comes to js! I am using this image rotator, and want it to stop from looping! (It should stop on the last image). Do you happen to know what changes I need to make to achieve this?

Also, there seems to be a stutter/pop effect when the images rotate (I see this effect on FF,Safari, and Chrome (don’t have IE to test).

Please help if you can! I am happy to compensate you for your time.

Tony,

I sent the following to Marco but could the bug be in your patch? (Thanks for providing that, Marco is crazy to think the world will switch away from IE just because he says so)

Marco,

Found an interesting bug.
Using;
Wordpress 2.8
Plugin version 1.0.0 plus Tony’s fix
php 5.2.9
MySQL 5.1.30

I have set the swap rate to “seconds”. If I use 2 then all 26 header images rotate. If 5 secs, only the first 12. If 15 secs, only the first 4. If 25 secs, only the first 3. If 31 secs, only the first 2. See the pattern?

After 60 seconds the script goes back and starts at header 1.

All 26 headers use the same naming convention and are all exactly the same size.

Your help would be appreciated, Thanks.

Unfortunately I don’t have IE 6. If I can find a computer with IE6 to test against then I’ll post an update with the IE6 fix.

I agree that IE is crap, but is there a solution to stop the flicker in IE6? A lot of the families in our district still use IE6 and I don’t want to create ill will by putting something out there that causes complaints. Have implemented your solution, but the problem remains in IE6.

Thanks.

Just read your comment on Cimy and this post on your site.

Wish your solution had appeared, sooner, for me.

Might try Cimy on another site, soon.

Thanks, for the input and solution to a problem.

Claude.
