More clear question for slideshow help - Kin?

Question

Hi Kin,
You have been very helpful in getting me this far - I know
this last detail would be a very easy thing for you to do.
I tried to get it to work for the dssmTitle by adding another
dssmTitle.addObserver
http://www.tsgraphics.net/slideshow_test/
The mouseover function is fine the way it is. It's how it
behaves during the slideshow that is a little wierd - it just sits
on the first story. It would be great if it switched to each story
like the small nav at the bottom highlights to each corresponding
nav to its story during the slideshow.
I hope this is more clear.
Thanks!

Hi TS,
So it sounds like you want to change the current row of
dschapters and stop the slide show on mouesover, and then re-enable
the slideshow on mouseout right?
Try something like this:
var gTimerID = 0;
var gInterval = 3000;
function StartSlideShow()
StopSlideShow();
gTimerID = setInterval(function(){
dschapters.setCurrentRowNumber((dschapters.getCurrentRowNumber() +
1) % dschapters.getRowCount()); }, gInterval);
function StopSlideShow()
if (gTimerID)
clearInterval(gTimerID);
gTimerID = 0;
dschapters.addObserver(function(nt,n,d)
if (nt == "onPostLoad")
StartSlideShow();
<div id="nav" spry:detailregion="dschapters"
spry:repeatchildren="dschapters" spry:choose="choose">
<div spry:when="{ds_RowID} == {ds_CurrentRowID}"
id="nav2" class="currentChapter" spry:setrow="dschapters"
spry:hover="hoverRow"><img src="{thPhoto}"
onmouseover="StopSlideShow();
dschapters.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}');"
onmouseout="StartSlideShow();" /> </div>
<div spry:default="default" id="nav2"
spry:setrow="dschapters" spry:hover="hoverRow"><img
src="{thPhoto}" onmouseover="StopSlideShow();
dschapters.setCurrentRow('{ds_RowID}')"
onmouseout="StartSlideShow();" /></div>
</div>
On a side note, if you are trying to bring your question to
the top of the forum again, post a message in your original thread
... that is don't create a new thread each time ... that way the
context of your questions is preserved for others to read. If you
post new threads each time, folks have to search for your previous
posts/threads to get context.
Thanks,
