okay, not too familiar with other templates, is it from template monster? Possibly you may have a js conflict, that is there should only be one jscript library file running. now again I'm not entirely sure on this but I had alot of bother with js and sliders etc too and it was trial and error before getting them to work right but one issue was just having the one js library file i.e. jquery 1.4.4 (or whatever it is)? maybe someone else will chip in here with a better explanation.
