1) Script Title: Ultimate Fade In Slideshow 1.5

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.htm

3) Describe problem: first of all thank you for that great script..

My question is: where and what code should I put inside the script somewhere in order for it to start when the page has finished loading.. (in the meantime it could display a message like "images loading" or a static image)

thank you

replace <body> with



<body onload = "fadeshow(theimages, fadewidth, fadeheight, borderwidth, delay, pause, displayorder)">


and make sure that you have that script in the <head> section of your page.

thank you for replying..

sorry if but I dont understand smth right..
the "fadeshow" function is set at the point you want the slideshow to be in the page..
i.e. I have it in a table cell in the middle of the page.. it won't stay there if I put it in the <body>

:confused:

page has finished loading

that function wont start until the entire page has been loaded, but I believe you can just do that same thing with the table tag, but I may be wrong :/


<table onload = "fadeshow(theimages, fadewidth, fadeheight, borderwidth, delay, pause, displayorder)">

no sorry.. it doesn't sound good..

I had a mind to insert a pause inside the code of the script somewhere.. I tried already somethings but it didn't work..

Use:

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/swissarmy/index.htm

It loads its images a few at a time and could be set to start onload if the array property (see Configuration Options):

manual_start=1

is set and you could then have an onload event like:


<body onload="iss[0].gostop(iss[0].go('gostp'+0));" . . .

Or, if using with the:

no_controls=1

property, just:


<body onload="iss[0].gostop();" . . .
