ANNOUNCE: yet another Slideshow (beta)

[neilw]

Works for me fine on Chrome 17 and IE8 on Win7. We use it widely on our internal wiki, and I've never heard a single complaint.

Which exact browser versions and OSes are causing you problems, and what are the exact problems?

It isn't working with IE9 in my environment. It is working in Firefox and Chrome. The Highcharts Extension also does not work with IE9, so I think it is an IE9 thing...

[neilw]

I can believe an IE9 issue. I am sadly aware of the problem with Highcharts and IE9, and just haven't had a chance to look into that.

I am still unclear how the previous poster had a problem with Chrome.

I continue to be unable to keep up with IE-related issues. I recall encountering a case in the past where the Mindtouch code was triggering a compatibility mode in IE9, and that was causing all sorts of interesting side effects. In that sort of situation I haven't figured out how to prevent the browser from activating those modes.

*sigh*

Not sure if it's just me but the navigation controls are not working with the latest version of Core on Chrome.

Clear your browser cache and try again. Sometimes between releases, the browser doesn't see that some js files have changed.

I like the plugin a lot (show on the mindtouch dev-site) but I have no clue about how to install or add the jquery cycle plugin. I have jquery installed (I think) since it is 'running' in the extensions list in the Control Panel. But I do know how to install the cycle plugin locally. The slideshow script has some references to jquery.cycle.all.min.js while the javascripts I found at alsup.com are missing the 'min' bit. I changed the reference to the loaction where I saved the js-files but this does not work. All I get to see, is some empty space. How shoud I proceed?

The slideshow is working now, it turnes out jquery etc was already installed correctly, but the picture were too large (5Mb). Now I compressed the picture to unde 2Mb and all is working. Thanks.
