slideshow "stop" command

[ilpimp]

i have taken the code for this slideshow (http://javascript.internet.com/miscellaneous/fading-slide-show.html) and altered it a little, but is there anyway that i can get it to stop after one cycle, or after a certain amount of time?

Hi!

One simple example to stop the slideshow after one cycle (other options are possible too).

function runSlideShow() {
if (document.all) {
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=2)";
document.images.SlideShow.style.filter="blendTrans(duration=crossFadeDuration)";
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Apply();
}
document.images.SlideShow.src = preLoad[j].src;
if (document.all) {
document.images.SlideShow.filters.blendTrans.Play();
}
j = j + 1;
if (j <= (p - 1)) t = setTimeout('runSlideShow()', slideShowSpeed);
}

Just change the runSlideShow function like above; the rest remains untouched...

Hi!

You're welcome! Hope, this option does it for you. Adding some more code (for which I don't have time right now:() it would easily be possible to specify a number of cycles to be gone through as well...
