iWeb Slideshow Modification

Or revert back to iWeb 3.0.3. However, I don't know what features 3.0.4 has over 3.0.3. All it says is that it fixes a number of minor issues. That's a lot of help.

It was 3.0.3.

About iWeb 3.0.3

This update contains bug fixes and improvements, including the following:

• Addresses an issue when using the iSight Movie widget on certain Macs
• Addresses an issue publishing iWeb sites using FTP
• Improves compatibility with Mac OS X

3.0.4 moved the slideshow icons to the server and created this issue. 👿

There's got to be a way: maybe to build the site with 3.0.3, close 03, open 04 and publish. 😟

Perfect! In Lion and Mt Lion we will have to move the unused application to a folder so the script will use the only iWeb in the Applications folder.

I've followed both Roddy and Old Toads instructions on how to fix the Slideshow show controls so there aren't 3 question marks for controls. But I must be missing something because the controls are still broken.

Here's the link to the slideshow/images folder at the root level of the server. All images are there.

Here are two screen shots of the iWPopUpSlideshow.js file that I modified at the server level. I only found two lines to modify.

Update:

Okay seems to be working. I expected it to work immediately after making the modifications, but it must have taken a few moments to work it way throught the server or something. Thanks to both Roddy and Old Toad for figuring the modifications out.

Hi Roddy and Mr. Old Toad,

I followed the instructions (I think), but my control images aren't showing up. I'm wondering if it's this /1/ that was already part of the code URL (see below) that's not in my hosted file name, which is just http://www.markdotzler.com/slideshow/images ....any help would be appreciated.

// set initial values

var slideWidth;

var slideHeight;

var frameHeight;

var frameWidth;

var scroller;

var slideshow;

var thumbnails;

var hud;

var thumbMatte = 89;

var pickerHeight = 100;

var browser;

var baseURL = "http://www.markdotzler.com/1/slideshow/";

var windowWidth = 800;

var windowHeight = 800;

function initScroller(startPoint) {

var thumbZone = $('thumbnailPicker');

var scrollbar = appendDiv(thumbZone, "scrollbar");

scrollbar.style.top = "84px";

scrollbar.style.left = 0;

scrollbar.style.width = thumbZone.getWidth() - 2 + "px";

scrollbar.style.height = "15px";

var bar = appendDiv(scrollbar, "bar");

bar.style.top = 0;

bar.style.left = 0;

bar.style.width = "100%";

bar.style.height = "13px";

var dragTool = appendDiv(scrollbar, "dragtool");

dragTool.style.top = "1px";

dragTool.style.left = 0;

dragTool.style.width = "26px";

dragTool.style.height = "13px";

dragTool = $(appendImage(dragTool, 'http://www.markdotzler.com/1/slideshow/images/dragger.gif', null, 24,13));

dragTool.setStyle({ margin: '0 1px' });

var ruler = appendDiv(scrollbar, "ruler");

ruler.style.top = 0;

ruler.style.left = 0;

scroller = new Scroller();

if (startPoint != null) {

scroller.jumpTo(startPoint);

Meant that question above for the Old Toad too!!!

Just remove the '1/' and it will work.

And make the slideshow domainname independent by removing http://www.domainname.com

Just

/slideshow/

is enough.

Hi Roger & Wyodor,

Doesn't seem to work...here's one of my slideshows: http://www.markdotzler.com/Mark_Dotzler/art.html

and here's the images: http://markdotzler.com/slideshow/images/ Tried dropping the www ..... should I drop the http:// too?
