Wow Slider problem - Post ID 240026

Since I know that there are quite a few users of Wow Slider here, I'll ask something. Please take a look at the slideshow here: http://www.focaholidays.com/m3.php
You will notice that every time there is an image not wide enough to fill the whole area, there is a grey 'thingie' appearing on the right side. It is, in fact, also appearing on images that are wide enough, but it is not so noticeable.
My settings are fade transition, I've tried different themes, the one I have now is called 'silence' and I have tried both checking and unchecking 'Remove frame and shadow', to no avail.
This grey bar does not appear in preview, only when the slideshow has been published.
Since this is a forum where we actually do get help and advice, I'm trying here before contacting the programme manufacturers.

In your focaholidays.com/css/style.css line 81.
img {
box-shadow: 0 0 10px #000000;
width: 100%;
}
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Thanks, I'll find my way to it then ;)

Yes, once Eric pointed my nose to it, it was a quick fix. I really should have found it myself, maybe I'm getting old...

I was right about one thing though; in these forums you always get the help you need! :D

Hi. I am having trouble publishing a slideshow to my website. I have tried WOWslider and create the slideshow fine but have no idea how to publish it all to the right place. I pasted the header text and pasted the body text but cannot seem to add the remaining files to the right place. There is an engine1 folder and data1 folder. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Kate,

What you want to do is upload those folders to the same location your website is. I have a good tutorial of how to add a wow slider to your website. It shows how to add it to a responsive layout maker website but it is the same steps for any website add.

Hope this helps.

Hi Steve,

I've looked at your video & I'm still having issues. I've also emailed wow & have not received a reply yet.
If you could look at the code & tell me what I'm doing wrong it would greatly appreciated. www.midwestthermal.com/temp/test.html

Thanks

Hi Robin,

It appears that you did not upload the data1 and engine1 folders to your server. That should fix this issue.
