Hi everyone.
I had a views rotator working at http://test.meadowlandsretirement.com.
it was working on the home page. I've added an "overflow: hidden" tag to the main_image div with the two people hugging. That was done so that the views rotator does not show the other 3 images that are loaded before consolidation of the images to rotate.
Now, on the test server here (locally), it was working. And I was developing on Drupal 6.10 I believe, and now I'm on 6.12. We have not done any major changes beyond that, and I never modified a core file from either the module or drupal.
the main image with the white script hovering overtop of it is supposed to rotate. With views slide-show it does, but the slideshow plugin wants to rotate even when there's only one image. Views rotator was working as we wanted it to. Only switching images if there were more than 1.
Now I can't get it to rotate anything. It's currently loading the 4 images into the box. I can see them load down the page, and then get piled up into the same div... but it's just not throwing the fade effect, or doing a "display: none" to the main image, and switching through.
Is there a javascript issue here? The fact that it's importing the 4 images and then consolidating them tells me it's half-way.
Can anyone help? I don't know what went wrong!
I also just noticed that my jQuery scrollbars are not working... HMMMMM.. does this have something to do with it? I think so! what can I check to be sure... I have jQuery Update installed....

Tried updating to 6.13
I remember starting this website at 6.10 drupal, and when I moved to 6.12.... sometime along that transition, something probably happened.
It's loading the images, and no other javascript is being loaded... but it just doesn't want to rotate the images. I tried Views Slideshow, but that has a white-wash effect that I don't think looks good, especially since some pages do rotate, other's don't. It looks unprofessional like that.
Anyone experience 6.12 or 6.13 upgrade problems?

Yep.

gee, thanks. what a warm feeling knowing I'm not alone. lol
really though, has anyone gotten any leads on the offending code conflicts?

Haha, maybe :) I've been looking into it, and I think that it's related to caching, and it only seems to happen to my IE8 users.
I'm using block-by-block caching, and setting the image blocks not to cache (or at least to use page-by-page caching) seems to do the trick, because sometimes the javascript isn't making it into the Drupal.behaviours). I also discovered a jQuery [@ in one of the misc/ files with the new release that was causing me grief (I'm using 1.3), so I don't know if that's related - probably not.
