When I click on the slideshow button, the message about
clicking ESC to return to normal mode pops up. My slideshow
images never do however. I have seen this periodically before.
Is the slideshow broken right now (Thursday night)?

I'm on Vista 64.
It "works" in Internet Explorer but not Firefox 3.0.15 and not
Safari 4.0.3

In IE, the slideshow runs within a maximized window, but this is
inferior to the normal "uncluttered" appearance of the properly operating
slideshow under Firefox.

Same here. None of my full-screen slideshows are working in either Firefox 3.5 or IE7.

Same here.

It Is?
Hmmm - wonder what I may have done wrong? NOT working yet for me.
If I click on Slideshow from my Gallery, the first picture shows up, without its caption, but it never changes.
If I set my gallery to be in Slideshow mode, it works, unless I click on Full Screen, in which case it just stops on the first picture & does not continue the slideshow.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

Which gallery do you see this in. I see a long pause on the first image, but then it starts advancing.

Thanks for the response.
That "long pause" you refer to has lasted thus far about 10 minutes - I assume the slideshow is not going to start up any time soon. Just that one picture without caption.
And it does that with Every gallery.

Using Mac with Firefox 3.0.15

Also experiencing slideshow death, was messing around with my bio text for a while until I found this thread. So far running firefox 3.5 or IE 6 it is still quite dead.

You have a number of javascript errors that you need to fix before we can see what else might be causing a problem:

Remove the %0 at the end of your top javascript and then get a fresh copy of the whole code for InsertStretchySlideshow. You are missing some of the code.

Interesting. It's working on IE8, Firefox 3.0.15 and Safari 4.0.3 on
my Vista 64 machine.

Thanks! Completely replaced the contents of the Top Javascript box and that appears to have resurrected it!

Any idea what would have caused this to happen? I don't exactly just go and start typing randomly on my advanced customization page (at least as far as I know )
