Hi there

I have been able to adapt the slideshow template to suit my needs but I am stuck on the last change that I need.

Does anyone know how to change the template to make the slideshow cycle continuously?

I have searched the forum but have had no luck with this change.

best wishes

Hi David

thanks for that. But I am using the standard BB HTML slideshow template.
I am just about up to speed with HTML but not with JavaScript. I was hoping that someone would point me in the direction of some code that I could drop into the template to achieve a continuous slideshow.


All the best

What you need to do is change the following line in fullsize_template.htm from:

if (nextUrl.length
to:

if (nextUrl.length
The first version loads the index page at the end of the slideshow. The second version loads the first page so that it loops around to the start.

Thanks for the information Chris. I can now get the slideshow to return to the first page but it sticks there and the slideshow does not contine from that point. Do I need to make further changes?

Many thanks

Sid,
you need to start it by appending the delay in seconds as argument.

if (nextUrl.length

Thanks very much Peter. That has done the job. I've also learnt a little more about JavaScript.

All the best
