Dynamic Fade in Slide show, auto start with controls...

Ultimate Fade-in Slideshow

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeinslideshow.htm

Problem:
When implementing this script with 'auto' start and using custom buttons; is there a way to keep the slideshow going once a user has chosen to use the buttons? Currently; it works perfect on start and works perfect if a person is using the arrows to go forwards or back... but if the user decides to stop hitting the arrows; the slideshow stops where it's at... make sense?

My script:


<script type="text/javascript">

var mygallery=new fadeSlideShow({
wrapperid: "fadeslideshow", //ID of blank DIV on page to house Slideshow
dimensions: [1024, 768], //width/height of gallery in pixels. Should reflect dimensions of largest image
imagearray: [
["images/awesomeness.jpg", "", ""],


["images/dewars-1.jpg", "", ""],
["images/dewars-2.jpg", "", ""],
["images/dewars-3.jpg", "", ""],
["images/logos-1.jpg", "", ""],
["images/peacock-home.jpg", "http://www.peacockhome.com", "_new"],

fadeduration: 500, //transition duration (milliseconds)
descreveal: "always",
togglerid: "slideshowtoggler"
})

</script>

There are a lot options to fulfil this request. You could simply download and add the extra buttons script with no pend option and a pause with nextprevresume true, ex:


<script type="text/javascript" src="fadeslideshow.js">

<script type="text/javascript">
var mygallery=new fadeSlideShow({
wrapperid: "fadeslideshow", //ID of blank DIV on page to house Slideshow
dimensions: [1024, 768], //width/height of gallery in pixels. Should reflect dimensions of largest image
imagearray: [
["images/awesomeness.jpg", "", ""],
["images/ . . .

["images/TAG-2.jpg", "", ""],
["images/TAG-3.jpg", "", ""] //<--no trailing comma after very last image element!
],
displaymode: {type:'auto', pause:2500, cycles:0, wraparound:false},
persist: false, //remember last viewed slide and recall within same session?
fadeduration: 500, //transition duration (milliseconds)
descreveal: "always",
extrabuttons: {pause: 6000, nextprevresume: true},
togglerid: "slideshowtoggler"
})

</script>

But after you see the options available you might want to do it another way. You might prefer that the next/prev buttons still stop the show, but add a pause/resume button, or any of various other possible setups. It's up to you.
