Trying to get jquery_slideshow working on a dev site:
http://dev.lakecountryjournal.com/node/159
Instead of getting a slideshow, I'm just getting the images stacked one after the other.
Using:
- jquery_slideshow 5.x-1.2,
- imagecache 5.x-2.2,
- imagefield 5.x-2.1,
- jquery_plugins 5.x-1.3,
- jquery_update 5.x-2.0 (jquery version 1.2.6),
- drupal 5.14.
Made imagecache preset for images; slideshow settings are set to use preset.
Content type display field configuration set to "JQuery Slideshow" for full page view.
What am I missing? Any ideas?
Thanks

jquery_plugins 5.x-1.3 does not include the cycle plugin by default. See http://drupal.org/node/328641 for an explanation.
You need to copy the file
http://www.shanestillwell.com/files/drupal/jquery.cycle.min.js
To your modules/jquery_plugin/ directory.
This should fix the problem. I really like your site, I live in Cloquet.

I have the same issue. I uploaded the missing JS file but it did not fix the problem

ok ... now the issue is that it will not rotate the images and the image that does display is floating as if the CSS were wrong.
UPDATE: It is rotating the images after a few hard refreshes but it floats the image incorrectly. Could this be a CSS issue?
UPDATE: It ended up that there was CSS embedded in the jquery.cycle.min.js file, once I change the position from "absolute" to "relative" it fixed the flotation error but the transition is not smooth like in the example. Note: You do not have to change the CSS anymore if you experience this problem.
Any ideas?
UPDATE: Figured it out ... I had to add a Height in the Imagecache setting for Scale. I did change back the CSS for the JS file to its original setting.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for two weeks with no activity.

I have this problem in Internet Explorer - the images are stacked and there is a javascript error. It works fine in Firefox
I see that one of the example sites on the project page also has this issue, but the one with the motorcycle displays ok in IE.

Alright, same issue as dortez's I guess. I had put in 100% for height for scale in image, and when I looked at the source code of the page I see "100%px" for jquery slideshow's code... setting the height value to a pixel value instead of % in imagecache for the scale option fixed the problem in IE.

Thanks for catching that.

Works for me too, thank you!

I have the same issue (http://www.slangenboren-online.nl/Slideshow-test4) I think I followed the advice:
Now it does rotate in FF, but the other problems persist: In IE, pictures are stacked and don't rotate. Both in FF and IE, images are displayed on top of surrounding text.
Can someone please be a bit more specific? I guess I'm simply overlooking something.
Thanks already!
