Ultimate Fade-in slideshow (v1.5): stop the slide show at the end

[Heinz]

Hello
Can somebody help me? I tried out the Ultimate Fade-in slideshow and I think it is really great. My question is:
Is there a possibility to stop the slideshow automatically as soon as the last picture is displayed?
Thank you in advance for answers.

To preserve the multiple shows feature of this script and have an option for any given one to stop after one time through, make these modifications -

to the function 'fadeshow' (additions red):

function fadeshow(theimages, fadewidth, fadeheight, borderwidth, delay, pause, onetime, displayorder){
this.flag=0
this.onetime=onetime
this.pausecheck=pause
this.mouseovercheck=0
 . . .

to the function 'fadepic' (near its end):

 . . .
obj.tempobj=iebrowser? iebrowser[obj.nextcanvas] : document.getElementById(obj.nextcanvas)
if(obj.flag&&obj.onetime)
return;
if(obj.nextimageindex==obj.postimages.length-1)
obj.flag=1
obj.populateslide(obj.tempobj, obj.nextimageindex)
obj.nextimageindex=(obj.nextimageindex<obj.postimages.length-1)? obj.nextimageindex+1 : 0
setTimeout("fadearray["+obj.slideshowid+"].rotateimage()", obj.delay)
}
}

Now the syntax for invoking any given slideshow instance has an added parameter - 'onetime':

<script type="text/javascript">
//new fadeshow(IMAGES_ARRAY_NAME, slideshow_width, slideshow_height, borderwidth, delay, pause (0=no, 1=yes), onetime (0=continuous, 1=one time), optionalRandomOrder)
new fadeshow(fadeimages, 140, 225, 0, 3000, 1, 1, "R")
 
</script>

In the above example, the slideshow invoked will stop at the last image. If the red 1 were set to 0, it would run continuously.

Dear John
Thank you very much. The modifications work fine.

Hello. I tried the modifications but my slideshow still loops http://www.cffit.com . Here is my fadepic portion and I do have the onetime setting set to '1' as opposed to '0':

function fadepic(obj){
if (obj.degree<100){
obj.degree+=10
if (obj.tempobj.filters&&obj.tempobj.filters[0]){
if (typeof obj.tempobj.filters[0].opacity=="number") //if IE6+
obj.tempobj.filters[0].opacity=obj.degree
else //else if IE5.5-
obj.tempobj.style.filter="alpha(opacity="+obj.degree+")"
if(obj.flag&&obj.onetime)
return;
if(obj.nextimageindex==obj.postimages.length-1)
obj.flag=1
}
else if (obj.tempobj.style.MozOpacity)
obj.tempobj.style.MozOpacity=obj.degree/101
else if (obj.tempobj.style.KhtmlOpacity)
obj.tempobj.style.KhtmlOpacity=obj.degree/100
else if (obj.tempobj.style.opacity&&!obj.tempobj.filters)
obj.tempobj.style.opacity=obj.degree/101
}

Thanks for your help.

Can anyone advise, I want the ultimate fade to run once and then automatically go to another html page, can anyone advise how this can be done. I can alway put a link message anyway.... Skip intro... but I would like it, if the fade slideshow would finish and go automatically to the main homepage

Any help great appreciated.
