    help question Currently using flash slideshow on my site, is there a better way?

    The homepage of my site uses a flash slideshow, and it has worked well for me in the past. However, so many people now browse with iPads and iPhones that don't support flash, and it leaves an unattractive gaping hole on the page where the flash is embedded.

    What are my alternatives? Can someone tell me which platform I can use to build a slideshow that is somewhat "user friendly" and that will show up regardless of what people use to browse the web.

    Not looking forward to yet another learning curve, but it must be done.

    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    I DID IT, I actually built a working cart, with the help of so many of you, Stevesh, Schoolboy, RescoCCC, to name a few. I just take one bite out of the elephant at a time and try to keep my sense of humor...

    I don't use sliders, so I have no experience to offer, but you should be able to replace the Flash with one of the available slider mods, There are a few in the Plugins area, and it looks like every template by Picaflor Azul includes slider code. The one I looked at had it embedded in define_main_page.php. You might check one of those for examples.
