    Question Ultimate fade - in slide show.

    Hi All, Not sure which section of this forum I should be addressing this to, so if it needs moving please do it. I was impressed with the use of fade in shows. Asked in the Tiscali forum and they put me on to Dynamic Drive. Even more impressed with the different types of fading. I have made a web site for my snooker team, and thought I would brighten it up a bit with the slide show. So as you know a little knowledge is a bad thing, went on to the link to down load the 2 steps. that bit is ok, but now I must change the pic code and the px (to set width / height). Where do I amend the code(fadeimage[])as asked, how much of the code is needed? also I must add the widest / highest image sizes to cover all pic's in px. can't find where to do it. May be more than a little help is needed.

    Warning: Please include a link to the DD script in question in your post. See this thread for the proper posting format when asking a question.


    Replace the red part with your image's filename:

    Code:
    fadeimages[0]=["photo1.jpg", "", ""] //plain image syntax
    If the image isn't in the same folder as the page using the script, you would need to include the path to the image as well (use the actual path, this is just an example):

    Code:
    fadeimages[0]=["http://www.mysite.com/images/photo1.jpg", "", ""] //plain image syntax

    Scrip: DD Tab Menu
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/ddtabmenu.htm

    Sorry jscheuer1, I do belong to many forums and they all have a different way
    of doing things. You started of great with the reply, and then, I still need to know what to fill in.The pic code in my Web folder is th_Doherty97.jpg if I send that pic to the index page it shows as
    <p>img border="0" src="th_Doherty97.jpg width="118" height="152"></p> the other pic's are a different size, so do I leave the dimensions in, do I change all three pic's to the largest sizes or try to find this px thing?
    I did put in the first code and nothing happened
    fadeimage[1]=["th_Doherty97.jpg", "http://www.cssdrive.com", ""]

    I thought so, but I was beginning to wonder. Anyways, if your images are of different dimensions, you need:

    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...army/index.htm

    The whole bit about the path is the same there though. To make things easier, why not just put all the files in the same folder, then you won't have to worry about the path.

    Just right click on it and choose 'save' or 'save as'. It is a text only file with the extension .js - IE, if it tries to open it, will think it is a binary program file and barf or have some other problem - most other browsers will just show it as text.

    Anyways, just save it and put it in the folder with your page.

    Would love to but right click gives me the choice of save to my stuff in Ask
    and that saves the hole thing not just the bit I need.
