If mouse is over image when first slide loads, no images load - until mouse-out

1) Script Title: Ultimate Fade-in slideshow (v2.4)

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...nslideshow.htm

3) Describe problem: I notice, with the "Ultimate Fade-in slideshow" (v2.4), that if your mouse cursor is hovering over the slideshow image area just before the first slide loads, then it will stick on the background colour, and no images will load, until you move the mouse cursor away - and then the slideshow starts. I found this to be reproducible with the slideshows on the main page here. This is of course more noticeable or likely to happen when using large, page-sized images. Is this a known issue? Can it be rectified?

Yes, and yes. Use my unofficial update (right click and 'Save As'):

fadeslideshow.js

The browser cache may need to be cleared and/or the page refreshed to see changes.

As far as I can see, your "unofficial update" version appears to have fixed that issue completely. It should be the official version !
