Hey all,

Wondering if anyone has a great format/script for a web slide show? I've got about 50 photos I need to put together with a little background music, and have it be accessible to the lowest common denominator audience (primarily AOL users). I know I can do a click through html set up, but would love to go a tad fancier if I could?? I found a nice javascript slideshow (maybe from a link here?)that faded the images in and out but it crashed my brother's computer (tho my mom on AOL 4 saw it, no problem LOL)

Flash learning curve is too high for me right now, though I've tried (and failed) to go through the slideshow template set up in MX. Any thoughts or suggestions most welcome :)) TIA

I used this on a site I made.... you can use it if you'd like:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

//Set up slide show
myPics = new Array ("images/gallery/image001.jpg","images/gallery/image002.jpg","images/gallery/image003.jpg") //add more as needed
thisPic = 0;
imgCt = myPics.length - 1;

function slideshowForward()
{
if (thisPic < imgCt)
{
thisPic ++;
document.myimage.src = myPics[thisPic];
}
}

function slideshowBack()
{
if (thisPic > 0)
{
thisPic --;
document.myimage.src = myPics[thisPic];
}
}
</head>
<body>
<p><img src="images/gallery/image001.jpg" name="myimage"></p>
<p><img src="images/back.gif" width="80" height="16" onmouseover="this.style.cursor = 'pointer';" onclick="slideshowBack();"><img src="images/forward.gif" width="100" height="16" onmouseover="this.style.cursor = 'pointer';" onclick="slideshowForward();"></p>
