Spry Image Slideshow not being nice, please help
Ok, first off, web design novice so please keep it simple for me. I'm trying to set up a portfolio page for a photography website using the Spry Image Slideshow Widget with Film Strip in Dreamweaver CS5.5. The problem occurs when I try to set the width and height as a percentage. Width, no problem, but when I try to set up the height as a percentage, the slideshow disappears and I'm left with just the thumbnail film strip. To clarify here's what I'm doing - in Adobe Widget Browser in the "Frame & View Port" Tab, Change Frame Width to 70% and View Port Height to 70%. In the Live View pane of the Adobe Widget Browser, the slideshow frame changes size with the window as expected, but go to Dreamweaver, open up a blank HTML page, Insert: widget.. and bam, no slideshow, just a row of thumbnails. Thrashing around in the dark here, please help...
Wow, it's like a ghost town on here, think I find a different slideshow.......

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

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:
http://www.hebrideansheep.org.uk/test_gallery.html
any and all help gratefully received.
JohnThe 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>

Spry Image Slideshow not showing if less than 2 photos
I have the
Spry Image Slidshow working properly on my webpage. The problem is that I am dynamically populating a dataset with data from the database using a category id of the photos. If there are at least 3 photos then the control is rendered properly to the page and the photos start showing as a slideshow and all is well.
If there are less than 3 photos the thumbnails render properly but the waiting screen for the viewer just stays black with the image loading going. the Play, Next, and Previous buttons never render either. If I click on any of the thumbnails the picture is shown in the viewer but the slideshow will never play.
I think if there is only one photo it should be able to be displayed as a slideshow as well but not really do anything. I think if there is a limitation of at least 3 photos this needs to be fixed. Thank you for any help anyone can give me on how to get this to work with less than 3 photos.I realize the previous post is a little dated, but I'm having the same problem described above. Does anyone know how to maintain slideshow functionality with fewer than 3 images? Obviously, you don't need a slideshow for just one image, but I have several pages on my website where it would be nice to cycle between 2 images. I'm guessing this would require some modification to the SpryImageSlideshow.js file, but I don't know enough about JavaScript to even tinker around with it. Any insight would be much appreciated.

Shuffle Blinking Orange/Not Being Recognized-- Please Help!
I just got a new iPod Shuffle 2nd generation.
I plugged everything in as stated in the instructions.
The only thing that happens is a folder "IPOD(E:)" pops up. It's empty.
Meanwhile, the shuffle is blinking orange.
So I open iTunes. ITunes tells me that this new ipod only works with ITunes 7.02.
Problem: But I DO have 7.02 running. That IS my current version of iTunes. So this pod SHOULD be working.
I'm not getting any "error" messages. Just an empty "IPOD(E:)" folder and the update message. There is no eject button for the shuffle because iTunes does not recognize any iPod as having been connected.
I have a 1st generation Nano that works fine also on this system. I have a Windows XP.
Help, please!awg2009,
The iPod Shuffle (Second Generation) showing up as the E: drive, and iTunes reporting that you need iTunes 7.0.2 mean that iTunes 7.0.2 is not fully installed.
In iTunes, go to the Help menu, and then About iTunes, what is the version number in the first line of scrolling text?
If it still reports 7.0.1, close iTunes.
Go to www.apple.com/itunes/ and download iTunes 7.0.2.
When prompted to save or run the file, be sure to save the iTunesSetup.exe where you can find it later.
After it has downloaded, trun off your anti-virus software which may prevent the iTunes files that may be running in the background from being changed, and run the iTunesSetup.exe.
Restart the computer after installing.
Then connect the iPod Shuffle (Second Generation).
If that does not resolve the issue this article contains more information on troubleshooting iTunes install errors:

Smooth scrolling page - slideshows not working. Please help!
Hi, I've created a smooth scrolling page with 3 slideshows positioned as you moove down the page. They appear to be working when previewed but not once uploaded. Does anyone know why?
ThanksHi Bob, hi Ross,
I've monitored the same problem. When a slide/MSO in a smooth scrolling article goes over the fold, it'll not play automaticly neither manual by tap.
It has nothing to do with selected running single or multiple times. Seems like the same problem with MSO's go in document bleed.
Seen on DPS v28 on iOS, but also on earlier versions.
Kind regards,

Transparent images are not viewing properly. please help
after the latest update version 25, there is always a white background
even the firefox addon transparent-standalone-imag doesn't workIt seems I found a workaround.
You need to install Greasemonkey, go to this link:
https://userscripts.org/scripts/show/153158
(Standalone Image Background and Transparency) and install script. After that you can change background options of standalone images.
I always thought that dirty gray background, instead of transparency, was something like a bug, but it is just retarded feature =/ -
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 works locally but not live!?!?
I am new to the whole website creation. I used the Spry Image Slideshow widget from the widget browser and everything works perfectly when I tested it locally. However, once i uploaded to the server and tested the links I get errors stating that it cannot locate the .js files. Like stated, I am very much new to this and have no idea how to fix this problem. Has anyone else ran into this or know of a solution?
My website address is www.terranceperdue-architecture.com and the links in question are on the portfolio link.
So more specifically:
http://www.terranceperdue-architecture.com/Design%20Studio%201.html
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am hoping to use this website to gain an internship for the summer. But if it is not working then that is not an option.
Thanks for any and all insight.
-TerranceI see where you have posted that you got your slideshow to work, but I do not see any of the reponses on how you did it. I am having the same problem when I test my slideshow locally on dreamweaver it works, but it does not work when I upload it to the internet. It doesn't give me any error, but all it does is show me a black box with a spinning play button like it is trying to load. It doesn't do anything else. I have tried looking at IE, Safari, and Firefox and I get the same thing on all of them.
Thanks,

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.
www.epaaudio.com
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! -
