[css-d] Using s5 to present photography slides

2006-06-05 Thread Dan Healy
I modified s5-blank.html to show photography slides.  The goal is to
maximize the screen space for the pictures.

I removed the headers and footers and sized the pictures to fit centered on
the page.

Using FireFox 1.5.0.3 all works as expected.  Using IE 6.0.2800.1106 all of
the pictures don't center, and the controls do not appear in the lower
right-hand corner.  Use resolution of 1024 x 768 and press F11 to maximize
the open space on the screen.

The slides can be seen at:

html

Any ideas on this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Better check Win98, IE6.  Pictures appear on load and then disappear.
And I liked the pictures - at least the couple I did get to see before they
evaporated.

IE 6 appears to be  ignoring the center /center element you are using in 
your modified S5 slide show.

center is not a valid element with the doctype you are using.  Run your 
code past an html validator [1] [2], as you have several other html errors.

As you noted, the slide controls work in Firefox  (1.5.0.4). When I hover my 
cursor at the bottom - right corner of the page it becomes visible.  Eric 
Meyer's original  S5 [3] works similarly in both Firefox and IE 6 on my win 
xp pro sp2 box.   My guess is that this is a scripting problem  and  IE 6 
can't play nice with your code.  Some one with more scripting experience may 
be able to offer advice off list. (also, I noticed that pressing the space 
bar will advance the images once they have loaded)

Hope that helps...
