So which one do you like? I downloaded the slide show examples.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Im trying to work with the one labeled "Standard"

At very first I was trying to work with just the files in the "Source" folder.

I don't know what the "Source" folder is for... You have to choose one of the styles first.

I'm still having trouble (lots of it) but Im just trying different things and slowly getting what I want (and hopefully learning something along the way)

Your page is working fine. Looks like the dots need a little work but other then that it looks good.;)

Hi Rolly,

When looking at the home page of http://slidesjs.com/ near the bottom you'll see "Options"

Where am I supposed to find these variables? (that Ctrl+F would sure come in handy)

Am I Suppossed to change these variables in the slides.min.jquery file??

Any idea why Im getting those extra dots below my pagination icons? (Ive been on this for a while and don't know what gives)

I really appreciate your help as Im trying to get this all dialed in, then I can work on finding some better images...

Thanks again

Here's what you have set for your current options at the head of your page.

<script>
$(function(){
$('#slides').slides({
preload: true,
preloadImage: 'image-files/slide-loading.gif',
play: 2000,
pause: 2500,
hoverPause: false
});
});
</script>


Ctrl + f =???

Hi Rolly,

Thanks for pointing out that the "Options" are handled in the <head> of the actual page. I thought this was something within the JS file.

BTW, Do you have any idea why I am getting the extra dots with my pagination icons?

And about the Ctrl+F... I was talking about the feature I had wrote a post about earlier that wasn't working.

Right now I just wish I could figure out what's up with the extra dots appearing with my Pagination icons... Any ideas??

It's something on the page. I copied your source code and deleted everything but the slide show and the black dots go away.

So you're saying that the problem is not in the CSS file global.css??

Nope I did nothing to the css. I'm hot linking to yours.:)
I get an extra image at the end of my slider.;)

No Matter what I do I can't get those dots to disappear.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "Hotlinking" to me?

Also, What do you mean by you get an extra image at the end of your slider??
