In deep sh@t = Need Advice Quick !

Hi everyone,

I'm a newbie of a web designer and agreed to edit a website for a friend of a friend.
I have one little problem with the website though.
The guy I'm doing the website for wants a conveyor belt slideshow that "must" have back and forward keys to scroll back n forth through it.
I tried to edit a slideshow I found at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/leftrightslide.htm , but to be honest I can not figure out how to edit/add back forward controls.

:-(

I have looked at other sites, but can't find the right code to help me do it.

The slideshow should like this one on Adobe's portfolio site: http://eportfolio.studio.adobe.com/user/saramoseley/12596

If anyone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it. The guy whose site Im working on has turned out to be a real nutty violent guy and has made threats against my friend if I dont make his site look perfect. Ack.


Thanks,
Becky W. :confused: :confused: :eek:

Hi there Khalid,

Thanks very much for posting that link.
Unfortunately I tried to edit the code and then upload it but am having trouble viewing it.
What directory should I load the slideshow.js and javascripts files in ? cgi-bin ?


argh, I feel like a failure -

[khalidali63]

at the top/root level will be the SlideShow.html
--+images/slideshow/all the images should be at this level
--+scripts/the javascript file should be here

cheers

I know I'm coming into this late, but I was having problems with the conveyor belt script too, and searching for help led me here.

I was wondering if I could use your slideshow script, Khalid. It's very clean, it gives users control over their browsing pace, yet it can show several thumbnails at once--exactly what I was looking for.

If it's OK with you to use it, where can I get the .js files needed to run the script?

Thanks very much.

[Ignatius]

Bump.

(Is Khalid still around?)

[pyro]

Yes he is... Hopefully he'll see the thread.

[Ignatius]

Sorry to keep bumping this thread--still hoping Khalid will see it. I tried emailing him, but he's got his preferences set for no email from the board.

His profile says his last post was in June. Are you sure he's still around?


:confused:

[pyro]

Yes, he is still around, He switched his username to Khalid Ali (http://forums.webdeveloper.com/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=7261), though.

Anyway, the JavaScript file can be found at http://68.145.35.86/skills/javascripts/scripts/slideshow.js

Thank you, Kyro. You're a prince. :)

[pyro]

Kyro?? :p :D

J/K... Happy to help. :)

[Ignatius]

LOL! Sorry. My fingers have a mind of their own at times.

Cheers.
