Spry Image Slideshow - Large gap at top

My page layout has a main div with a left-floating column containing the menu and a few other bits and pieces.
The layout is the same for all pages.
When I insert the Spry Image Slideshow widget into the main div it leaves a space of around 400px above the slideshow. The pause and continue buttons appear in this space when the mouse is hovered over it. There is no other content in the main div on this page.
All other content on other pages, whether text or images or a combination of both start, as expected, just inside the main div top margin.
I'd appreciate any suggestions please?

I am unable to reproduce your problem I inserted Spry Slideshow w/ FilmStrip into a test page with a div with your #bodyCenter id applied to it and it works fine for me. I used BrowserLabs to preview it in 7 different browser on Mac and Windows.
Make sure that you have uploaded all of the dependent .js and .css files to your site. Send a url if you are still having problems.
Here is my working sample with your css div:

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip- Filmstip thumbs loading incorrectly

Hello, I am hoping someone will be able to help me. I loaded the Widget for the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip. After reading several tutorials as that the product did not work correctly, I finally got the corrupted .js fixed (thanks Accustic Gramps for all your posts very helpful when going through looking). First page looks great, now, I put the slideshow on another page and loaded it, but the filmstrip is now loading off placement so the thumbs are all messed up.
Hoping someone can help me.

And now my second apology, I have tried the page in IE7+ and in FF and see no problem. Could you please bear with this old soul and explain the problem a bit further.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip IE8 Play/Back/Forward Arrows Problem

Please help me. I'm using the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip widget on my web page: http://new.radcal.com/accugold2.html#sensoroptabs. In Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer 9 it displays properly but in Internet Explorer 8 the gray Play/Back/Forward Arrows automatically appear on the Viewport (main large slide area) when the page loads and they do not go away, ever. Whereas in the other browsers these arrows only show up when I move my mouse into the viewport area and go away as soon as I take my mouse off the viewport area.
I need the arrows to behave in IE8 like they do in IE9, Firefox, etc. I do not know javascript but I imagine there is some javascript code that could solve this problem. Does anyone know of a solution? Please help me...

At the top of your document you have

Add the DOCTYPE as follows

Without a DOCTYPE on the very first line of the document, IE goes into Quirks Mode

Spry Image Slideshow Thumbnail's do not show properly

Hello World!
This is my first time using the forums here at Adobe.
My problem is that I have inserted a Basic Spry Image slideshow like so:
The size is ~ 250px by 200px
And once I go into live view, the slide show only displays the top right corner and not the whole image itself. I tried downsizing the image in design view to "look" like the same size of the thumbtails below but that did not do anything.
In my local file(not sure if you can see to the left) my images are saved in a file called 'images', and thumbs in a subfolder called 'thumbs'. (I read that images need to have same scr and link names?)
If anyone can help me out that would be great!! Thanks guys!

Okay, so I found my error, my Link photo was super duper big!
I played around with the resizing and it fitted better.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip controls showing ABOVE images?

Hi all,
I've never used these forums before and apologise in advance for my first discussion being a request for help!
I recently added the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip to a page and am not sure which property I need to modify to get the controls to show on top of the image. I think this is an issue with the two column layout I'm using but am not knowledgeable in the least about code and would appreciate your help.

Many many thanks!

Hi folks, any ideas re this issue? Really hope someone can help.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip, thumbnail problem in Safari

I'm adding a spry image slideshow with filmstrip in Dreamweaver CS5 on a Mac. I have a folder of images with a large and small (Thumbnail) version of the photos I'd like to use. I've relinked all of the images that are inserted as placeholders by the widget: Source for thumbnail versions and link for large versions. When I preview in Firefox all is well. When I preview in Safari, the filmstrip has white boxes rather than the thumbnail images. Everything else is fine. (It previews correctly in Safari before I change the links.) What am I doing wrong?

I have a similar problem. I've added a note to reference your problem. I've not got an answer to date.

Spry Image Slideshow

I am having an issue with the widget Spry image slideshow-Basic (1,0), when i preview the slideshow it worked perfectly, once i have uploaded it to the server the slideshow doesn't load, it just loads the images in a line below eachother. When i open it up in I.E it sais there is an error on page.
Error Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
// BeginOAWidget_Instance_2141542: #ImageSlideShow_2
varImageSlideShow_2 = newSpry.Widget.ImageSlideShow("#ImageSlideShow_2", {
      widgetID: "ImageSlideShow_2",
      injectionType: "replace",
      autoPlay: true,
      displayInterval: 4000,
      transitionDuration: 2000,
      componentOrder: ["view"],
      plugIns: [ ]
// EndOAWidget_Instance_2141542
</script>
Your help would be much appreciated

In Dreamweaver CS5, I launch IE and it does show the pictures one on top of the other (when the message about running scripts or Activex controls shows up) and when I allow blocked content, it hangs. Maybe it has to do with your IE configuration.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip (1.0) - strange behavior

I am developing a fairly simple website based on Adobe's fixed two-column, header & footer template. The left column is now 180 px wide, with the right column being 630 px. When I place the Lightbox Gallery Widget into the editable region of the main content area, it works fine. When I place the Wanderlust theme Spry Content Slideshow, it works fine. When I place the Spry Image Slideshow Basic, it works fine. But when I place the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip, it works sorta... The navigation buttons work but are displaced toward the top of the image area and the photos are significantly below them. It works, but it look terrible. (see below) When I place the same widget into a blank HTML page it works fine, there is no displacement. I have tried resizing just about everything including the main content area width, the view port, etc. It does not matter if I use the default or an edited version of the widget. What am I doing wrong? Or what do I need to change? I really like the way the widget looks, but cannot get it to work.
I am doing all of this in CS5 on a Mac (10.6.4).

vw2ureg,
Thanks for your help. I, too, was able to get it to work with a page with the default two-column, fixed template. I must have made an error in resizing the template and/or am resizing the widget incorrectly. I think my dimensions for the template are as follows: left column (180 content, 20 left padding, 10 right padding, 210 total) and main content (210 left margin, because the left column is floated; 630 content, 20 left, 20 right padding, 670 total). Which both fit into a container of 880px. Correct? Yet even when the widget view port is sized to 600, I still get the effect shown in my original post. FYI, in order to reduce sources of error I have stuck with the demo images rather than inserting my own at this point.
Once again, I do appreciate your help. Although I'm very much the newbie at this, I'm finding it very interesting.

Spry image slideshow not displaying as expected

Hoping someone in this forum can help, as I have previously posted this problem in the Spry forum, but I only got one answer and it didn't seem to fix the problem.
I used the widget browser to place a copy of the 'spry image slideshow with filmstrip' widget on to one of my web pages. When this page displays, there is a big gap (like excess padding) above the main image (between the outer frame and the main image frame). I can't see why this is happening or what bit of HTML/CSS to tweak to sort it out.
I have uploaded my test page to the server and you can see it here:

any and all help gratefully received.

The problem lies with stylesheet.css. If you delete that, you will see that the slideshow will display as expected.
When doing a layout for the page, just look at the basics. In your case you have got a header, a sidebar, main content and a footer, all within a width of 960px and centered within the viewport. The basic CSS for the layout would look like
/* CSS Document */
html {
    margin: 0px;
    color: #666;
    font-size: 12px;
    font-family: Arial;
    background: #666 url(images/page_bkgd.jpg) repeat-x;
body {
    width: 960px;
    margin: auto;
    background: #FFF url(images/content_bkgd_tile.jpg) repeat-y;
#header {
    height: 180px;
    background: #4971a2 url(images/banner_bkgd.jpg) no-repeat;
#aside {
    width: 20%;
    float: left;
    /*----for this example only*/
    background: #cfcfcf;
    min-height: 400px;
    /*----end for this example only*/
#article {
    width: 80%;
    float: left;
    min-height: 400px; /*for this example only*/
#footer {
    clear: both;
    height: 88px;
    background: #cfcfcf url(images/footer_bkgd.jpg) no-repeat;
The HTML will look like
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link href="untitled.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
<div id="header">
<h1>My Header</h1>
</div>
<div id="aside">
    My Menu Bar
</div>
<div id="article">
    this is where the slideshow goes
</div>
<div id="footer">
    my copyright etc
</div>
</body>
</html>

How do I link web pages in a Spry Image Slideshow using Dreamweaver CS5?

I have used the Widget Browser to create the spry image slideshow and would like to link the large image displayed to a webpage? Is there any code or easy way to link the slideshow images to webpages?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hans-G; thanks for the code. I am not sure where to place the code. When I insert the widget spry image slideshow, I get the following below. Where shall I place the code, thanks again:

Spry Image Slideshow does not work in Explorer

My spry image slideshow works fine in Safari and Firefox, but does not work in Explorer.
A small box shows up in IE 8, and absolutely nothing shows up in IE 7.

Any Suggestions?

How did you get your slideshow to play in Internet Explorer? I'm using the same slideshow on my new website and it plays fine in everything but IE versions. Here's a test page I'm working on... http://4034.sandbox.i3dthemes.net/oceankayakbanzai.html
I looked at the code for your page and didn't notice anything different on mine. But yours works... Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

SPRY Image Slideshow, compatibility problems with IE

Hello, i recently used the Spry image slideshow in my website. All works great in every browser except IE. I could actually get it to work when i changed the DOCTYPE from: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> TO: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN">
BUT,
that totally skrewed the rest of my content. also i added the meta tag: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" > and that fixed the slideshow, but again skrewed my content.
Has anyone found a solution? i looked through past discussions but couldnt find one.

I was not talking about body background, but about having markup that screws up your document when using a browser. Body background just happened to be there. Perhaps you would do well to have a look here http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Flittletreats.org%2F.
I have noticed that you ignored my solution; your document still shows two bodies.
Perhaps I should have mentioned that I tested in IE6 through to IE9 using IETester and the above was the only thing stopping IE from performing properly.
How did you determine that the slideshow was not working correctly in IE and which versions of IE?

Why is the Spry image slideshow not showing all of the thumbnails?

Hi, I have a problem with the Spry image slideshow with filmstrip. I downloaded it and inserted all of my pictures and thumbnails. When I load it up in Firefox and IE seems to work perfectly.
However when one scrolls through the images, some of the thumbnails are not displaying. Also, sometimes some of the images won´t display at all. I have double checked the files and they are
all the correct size (100x100 for the thumbnails) and they are all available in the proper slideshow folder on my webpage. I am at a loss as to what the problem is, since it works fine for the other
images. Here is a link to the site:

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

All working OK here. All thumbnails and fullsize images appear OK.

Why are my Spry Image Slideshow slide titles not appearing sometimes?

I inserted a Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip Basic widget using 3 photos to try it out. It is working fine except for the slide titles.The slide titles appear in Firefox and in Opera, but not in Safari. Haven't tried it in IE browsers yet.
Any idea why the titles are not showing up all of the time?
Thanks.

All working OK here. All thumbnails and fullsize images appear OK.

Spry Image Slideshow problems with IE?

I have set up the Spry Image Slideshow widget and it works beautifully in Firefox and Chrome. I'm having the same problems others have had. I've read through the various discussions on here and have sorted some of them but am still stumped on a couple things!
Here is the link to where I have it currently uploaded for testing purposes: www.wohowebdesign.com/sidestrand/gallery.php
My first problem was how the images just would not flow, skip all over and freeze. After I changed the DOCTYPE, this problem was gone.
My Second problem is now the images are blending ok, but when you go to use the controls to pause or click the arrows, a vertical line appears and does not go away. This is still occuring on my local computer tests, but the uploaded version seemed to work itself out... I have no idea how!!
My third problem is the alignment of the whole gallery box will not line up properly on the page. It is shifted to the right and this only happens when I view it in IE8 (not Firefox or Chrome). Unfortunately most of our school uses IE8 so I need to have it working perfectly before I put the new site live.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Debbie
