CCK / Contemplate problems?

The images will show up but there is no transition from one image to the next. I can see the next picture if I hit the next button but the entire page has to be refreshed. Is there something I am doing wrong here?

You speak Japanese Massa? Most people have no idea what hiragana even is so I was shocked to hear you say something about it.

Hello,

I've set up a CCK node where my content contributors can upload multiple images in the "Slideshow Images" field. In my content template I've put the following code where I want the slideshow to apper:

<div class="field field-type-image field-field-primary-image">
  <div class="field-items">
	<?php 
	$images = "";
	$ss_counter = 0;
	foreach ((array)$field_slideshow_images as $item) {
		if($ss_counter) $images .= ",";
		$temp_str = $item['view'];
		$reg_ex = '/http[a-zA-Z0-9\.\:\/_\-]*/';
		preg_match($reg_ex, $temp_str, $img_filepath);
		$images .= "|" . $img_filepath[0] . "|";
		$ss_counter++;
	}
	slideshow_creator_process_text('[slideshow: 2, rotate=2, name=fv_slideshow, img='.$images.'] '); ?>
  </div>
</div>

When I visit the page there is nothing displayed and no JavaScript errors. When I view the source the following line has been added and appears to be correct:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/beta/sites/all/modules/slideshow_creator/slideshow_creator.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">Drupal.extend({ settings: { "ssc": { "1": { "total": 1, "rotate": "2", "name": "fv_slideshow", "1": { "src": "http://www.mydomain.com/files/imagecache/full/files/premium/1_1.jpg", "link": "javascript: void(0);", "title": "", "description": "", "target": "_blank" }, "current": 1, "timeout": {  }, "layout": "default" } } } });</script>

Is there some additional code I need to add to my template to indicate where to display the slideshow?

I'm sorry if I'm doing this the wrong way. I'm not sure what the protocol is for posting to support forums.

One more update, on further inspection the JavaScript code being generated is not adequate. It's only recognizing the first of the multiple images in that Slideshow Images field.

That worked excellently!

Here is the completed code which is in my content template.

<?php 
	$images = "";
	$ss_counter = 0;
	foreach ((array)$field_slideshow_images as $item) {
		if($ss_counter) $images .= ", ";
		$temp_str = $item['view'];
		$reg_ex = '/http[a-zA-Z0-9\.\:\/_\-\%]*/';
		preg_match($reg_ex, $temp_str, $img_filepath);
		$images .= "img=|" . $img_filepath[0] . "|";
		$ss_counter++;
	}
	print slideshow_creator_process_text('[slideshow: 2, rotate=2, name=fv_slideshow, '.$images.'] '); 
?>

Got an error use above code Fatal error: Call to undefined function slideshow_creator_process_text()

i found if I use _slideshow_creator_process_text() , it works (difference is _ in front of it )

btw, I have the latest 6. something version of slideshow.. as I am running drupal 6.8

I am using cck, and contemplate. with the slideshow

i setit up, and I can get the test block to work in a blank page.

so I try to do some test stuff in contemplate using this function: slideshow_creator_process_text

and I completely crash contemplate. Cant even get back in with out using mysqladmin to cut the code that I entered.

I am on a fresh copy of drupal 6.6 with the latest slideshow creator.

I want to create a slide show of my imagesfields... and no luck so far.
is there a document that discusses and API or somethign like that?

also, is there an alternative that turns the imagefield into a slide show?

File: slideshow_creator.admin.inc

$form['layout'] = array(..)

Forgot to add 'none' => t('None'), it leads to many problems, trying to find how to hide those annoying buttons.
