I have a slide show on my web site that fades from image to image. Before the first image comes in, there is a red x as if it can't find my image. Is there a way to turn off the little red "x", so that nothing shows while the image loads? www.gatewaynaz.com/index1.html is the page that I have the problem with.

Use a completely transparent image as the placeholder.

Would that image be "underneath" the slide show, or as an image inside the java script for the slide show?

Where ever the image is that is missing that currently produces the X.

That's the problem. I don't think there is a missing image. How would I find out where the script thinks the image is missing?

The missing image is not in the slideshow, but associated with the href. Just below the slideshow script there appears img src="../images/bs00825a.gif" - this file does not seem to exist.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I have been trying to troubleshoot this for several days. The site that I copied my code from neglected to tell me that I needed to substitute my own image there. I followed your note, and now my slide show is great.

I really appreciate it. Thanks for taking the time to actually look at my java script and find my problem!
