Hi Dynamic Drive friends ...


Coming here for years (deluxe site) but never asked something,
but now I must ask
I,m not coder - more a kind of pigfarmer code exchanger :)
- -

1.)
Wished to make a cross browser ,fancy, slideshow with music,
and come up with this result:
.

- -

2.)
But... No way I can get it to work proberly, ?
- Looong load time (would like to have min 150 imgs in each show)
- suddenly dropout of shown imgs (no steady rules for that)
- etc - etc
I,m naturally knowing it,s ,me, and my mixture of scripts,
but I cant figure out Where./.What to do. - And then I give up :confused:
- -

3.)
I then download the PhpSlideshow from: http://www.ericphelps.com/
and it pleasant me - because it makes the slide on the fly on the
server - but again:
It dont have the transitions - and I ,fear, the music combination !
(but the show from server on the fly - _is_ a damed good option)
- -

4.)
So my question goes something like this:
Based on my idea from my-give-up-attempt
- Fancy img show (like DHTML Slide Show Script)
- Combined with background music
- And 100% cross browser friendly
.
Did any of you have seen something who ,can-do, this ?
or any proposals how I can come further with my idea.

Have a nice day./Sven :) :cool: :)

There's numerous options out there to accomplish what you want to do. I think some of the best solutions for your desires are written in flash.

They tend to be the most user friendly and can be easily configured. Here's one:

I think something similar to that is what you are looking for? It's also very easy to stream music with flash, which cuts down on the load times exponentially.
