Elements conflicting with each other.

I have placed a slideshow onto my (test) site using HTML editor.

It works fine as a stand alone on this page:
http://a4dabble.coffeecup.com/slide_show.html

But as soon as I place it within other elements on a responsive page it stops working.
http://a4dabble.coffeecup.com/index_new.html (it appears as a white bar under the menu at the mo)

I have had this problem in the past with other elements. I am guessing it is something in one of the .css files but what & which one I have no idea. I have tried re-ordering everything in the <head> but that did'nt work either.

Can anyone help please? :/

Sue,
To begin with:
You need a <body> starting tag immediately after the closing </head> tag (line 36), but your <body> tag does not appear until line 136. This and a few other errors are pointed out by the validator:

You should correct those errors and then run the validator again to see if additional errors are picked up...

Hi Per,

The reason I put the <body> tag there was because I was eventualy planning to duplicate this header in the custom HTML part of SCC (where the custom header appears before the <body>)

However I have corrected all those errors, which where caused through copy & pasting :rolleyes:

Still the slideshow does not work.

Think I am going to abandon this template & work on a simpler one where slideshow does work. ;)

You have a little error in your code. Try this.:)
<script>
// Can also be used with $(document).ready()
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.flexslider').flexslider({
animation: "slide",
controlNav: "thumbnails"
});
});
</script>

Thanks Eric, I had already spotted that. The $(document).ready() didn't make any difference.

Its got to be the template I was using as it works OK on another. ;) Probably be easier & quicker than looking for a needle in a haystack - it could be anywhere! Just a bit annoying but haho.
