I installed the 2006/0714 slideshow module on a freshely installed drupal 4.7.2

copy the folder to module dir and enable it. (I don't know what to do with slideshow.install, does it magically run? Seems to me I have similar problems with other modules have the *.install files)

i post a slide who, attaching sevearl pictures. But no images were displayed. The next bottom works but the body of the post only dislplay a plain text of the picture file names.

i go to drupal /files dir to check if they are properly uploaded. They are, sitting there with auto generated thumbnail like 3B7CDF161FB5A5CA4685C3B049750138.640x480.JPG

damn i am stupid.

i am supposed to install the image module first. Maybe add one line of "this module requires you to install and enable upload AND image" module is better.

your module works perfect! Thank you, thank you.

on minor request if possible, somebody doesn't want to display the picture file names, can we configure that right now?

sorry for being stupid and jumped the gun again.

slideshow.module actually shouldn't require image.module, just upload.module. The image manipulation functions are built into Drupal's core.

Also, you can remove the title of the file (which you can rename, too) by overriding the theme_slideshow() function in your theme.

Title: images are not displayed » when disable image module, slideshow stop working

Thanks for refering me to how to style the slideshow, though I don't fully understand. But that's not a issue of the module.

I　still have 2 questions:

1) when i disable the image module, the slideshow module stop working.

2) the javascript doesn't work on firefox and IE on windowsXP. I tested on several machines. I asked a friend to look at the js source code, he doesn't notice anything wrong. But, we couldn't find how to set the time frame of each photo.

I use the contact at your user page to send you a email with admin passwd of my site. If possbile, would you please look it up at my site.

BTW, could this be a problem of XAMPP, because currently the manchine is runing ubunutu server 5.1 + XAMPP. For example, I can't get mediawiki running on this envoirnment. And buddylist module complaints about it and doesn't work.

Thank you for your time!
