Mike, any reason why FireFox wouldn't show the slide show? (IE works fine)

Works perfect for me in Firefox... Also, got curious and tried your page in Safari 2 and 3 (Mac), and Firefox (Mac) and was pleasantly surprised to see that it also worked in all of these as well. Nice.

So it appears that, if you do not have Silverlight installed, there is no indication that anything is missing from the page. As in Flash, or Quicktime, a question mark would appear, or when <a href="Flip4Mac'>http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_download.htm">Flip4Mac</a> activates, I see the custom background color I set up in it's prefs......but, on this blog, I don't see a thing that shows there is media missing.

hi,Mike.I developed silverlight slideshow for Photo Gallery.In that i created Data.xml for all albums from database.But My problem is that the size of Data.xml is too Large and it takes too much time to load.So i think that it's possible to create individual data.xml for each Album.Basically i created individual folder and in that i created 2 folders named Large and Thumb

in which i stored Large and thumbnail photos.Each Photo album have their own Folder based on their ID.

thanks

This is looking like a possible solution for me - except that I've downloaded Silverlight on my Mac and using Firefox 3.0.3 all I get is the box (link) for silverlight download. - Works fine on vertigo's site - but not in your blog.

I'm also a bit concerened that people will click away from my website if they're required to install new software just to view my images - I suspect that means I'll either do a standard (non-scaling) version and have a button that will take you to the scaling version but require silverlight - need to think about this more.

I have tried everything I can think of and I just don't see what I am doing wrong. It is either server side or my XMLconfigurationprivider setup. I also get the blank page after following the steps. Any help would be great.

Hi Mike,

Do you know of a users manual for slide.show? I really love the control and I am trying to teach it to 16 yr old programmers.

Thanks

Actually I have put the Slide.Show 2 to good use, and I have created an eventhandler for a document library in SharePoint that automatically populates a Data.xml file based on the image files present in the current directory. The only problem I am having with this nice silverlight app, is the ability to edit the waiting time between the slides. After looking through the code it appears that it uses the command <i>WaitTime = DefaultOptions.Transition.WaitTime;</i> to indicate the amount of waiting time between transitions. Allthough I was unable to find the DefaultOptions it appears from the source that you are able to configure this waiting time using the keyword "Transition" and option "WaitTime" though it is unclear exactly where and which values to use. Anyone have any experience with these settings?

I have tried everything I can think of and I just don't see what I am doing wrong. I GOT ONE black screen, WITH NO IMAGES.

Can anybody tell me why?

Thanks.
