Hi..

Thanks for prompt reply..

I did check the urls to the images...each url opens the respective image! The urls to the images I have taken by going to my live blog and with Right click on the respective image "copy image url". IS THIS THE RIGHT WAY???

My problem is on my Test Blog Page... http://meenasvegcorner.blogspot.in

a. The LHS Box images appear to move in vertical fashion rather than horizontal!!!

b. The RHS Box images just quiver with no movement!!

I checked the HTML at http://jsbin.com/vixaqocobu/edit?html,css,js,console
Here it appears to work fine...But when I paste this as a HTML widget in my test blog ...there is some issue sad.gif

Kindly advice!

Hi....Thanks for your time....but I needed guidance wrt the Conveyor Belt Image slider just below the EAT HEALTHY STAY BLESSED Heading! the conveyor belt slideshow is with DIWALI Sweets and Diwali Snacks heading!

not the part that you mentioned above..that is just a Test Case! smile.gif

Posted by: pandy Nov 3 2015, 07:38 AM

ok. and the problem is it shows the same image allthe time instead of different images i gather. i'll have a look. i'll also move the thead to the js forum.

Posted by: pandy Nov 3 2015, 07:55 AM

fact is that the code you posted does what i think it should. so does the script at your site if i copy it and run it on its own. so it must be something else in that page that interferes. problem is there's 4997 lines of else... sad.gif

Posted by: Frederiek Nov 3 2015, 11:44 AM

And, there are two sliders on that page. You can't use that one script to serve them both. Changes need to be made to distinguish the two sliders from each other.

Besides, I get 18 js errors. The page also has HTML errors (validate at https://validator.w3.org/nu/ ) and check the CSS too at http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ .

Although the domain stays with ".in", I do get a cookie message in my own language.

Posted by: pandy Nov 3 2015, 11:52 AM

hmm. i assumed the script was written for two slides. and it actually works when taken out of the page.

Posted by: Frederiek Nov 4 2015, 05:54 AM

Yeah, maybe. I didn't look that well. Though on the demo page at dynamicdrive, there's only one slider: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/leftrightslide.htm .

Remains that there are errors. And the image in the right slide shakes.

Posted by: masonh928 Nov 9 2015, 07:19 PM

I'm just wondering, but how is this SS Scripting, it seems to be all Client Side Javascript.

Posted by: pandy Nov 9 2015, 07:35 PM

trtue. didn't notice. thanks. wink.gif
