RE: * Carousel Slideshow script- © Ger Versluis 2003
when using below calculation / settings I always see on the screen the 'frame' and, in the upper left corner of the placholder frame, a red plus sign of the placeholder object (looks like the placholder Attachment 456 Object doesn't find a picture; see attached picture file - please ignore the dotted line on the picture). Your demo doesn't show that at all! Otherwise the script works fine.
????? How can I make it invisible? perhaps my calculation is wrong!
thanks

My calculation for placeholder:
placeholder width = (274 + 5) * 2.62 = 730.98 = 731
trying
placeholder width = 2.62 * 274 + 5 = 722.88 = 723 does the same thing!
