    Default How can I use Ultimate Fade-in slideshow v2.1 ?

    Anyone using v2.1 of Ultimate Fade-in slideshow with Zen Cart?
    http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...nslideshow.htm

    I am having an issue with errors when navigating away from the page that has the slideshow and I think it has to do with me placing the <head> script code in the wrong file. I am only going to have the slideshow on the main page.


    Here is what I've done so far

    1. I've downloaded and renamed the fadeslideshow.js to jscript_fadeslideshow and placed it into my store root (it wouldn't work when placed in /templates/custom_template/jscript/ folder)

    2. They state to place the script code in the <head> section of the page. I assume "the page" is the page you want the slideshow on, so I initially placed the code into /includes/languages/english/html_includes/custom_template/define_main_page.php, but that didn't work - nothing happened - no slideshow.

    3. I then placed the <head> script code into /includes/templates/custom_template/common/html_header.php and this worked. The slideshow shows up on the main page as expected, BUT as soon as I navigate to another page I receive an error stating:
    Error: DIV with ID "fadeshow1" not found on page.

    That is because the script is looking for <div id="fadeshow1"></div> on every page as the script is in the html_header.php file and gets called on every page.


    I did find a few forum threads from 2007 on folks using an older version 1.5, but it seems that things have changed a bit with the new version as the images are called from a script placed in your <head> section and not the .js file you download from dynamic drive.

    I am a bit perplexed now on how to really setup this version with Zen Cart.
