I'm working on a friend's site and have been having some trouble getting a really simple slideshow to work well in MSIE8. It works flawlessly in Firefox/Safari/Chrome. There are four images in the slideshow, each one has a corresponding caption below it (the first and last are the same image with a different caption). In MSIE, the images cycle fine, but the first caption appears, followed by the fourth, then goes blank for all future image changes. The site is built in Wordpress, but I've deactivated all other plugins (to no avail). I'm not great with javascript, so I would really appreciate someone checking out the small bit of code in the header. The site is located here. Many thanks, Mike
Use a cross-browser-compatible slideshow plugin. There are too many possibilities (like your header triggering IE to run in quirks mode or in 7 mode) to debug the problem by remote control like this.
Hi Rukbat...the plugin is browser compatible (as far as the authors description). It was written by Jon Raasch, who I've found to be pretty reliable. Only reason I ask here is because the comments are closed at his blog. I'll make a more concerted effort at debugging it. Thanks, Mike
