Hi,

I am trying the slideshow folder 4.0 with Plone-3.3.1 and it works fine on Firefox.

However, on Safari nothing is displayed and I can not access the content of my folder.

Browsers client are on Mac Os (Leopard - 10.5).

Thanks

I just upgraded to Plone 3.3.1 and have the same issue: slideshows look ok in every browser except for Safari.

BUT... looking a little bit closely, I found that Safari did complained about a JS error in the "Debug" window, while other browsers didn't. So it turns out that I'm also using JQuery in the same Plone web site for an image cycle with fading effect. That JQuery function is used assigning a class named "slideshow" to an element. For example:
<div class="slideshow">few images here</div>

The class name is the problem: probably the same name is used by the Slideshow product and it causes ambiguity.

I just changed the class name (in the DIV element and in the JS for JQuery) and everything is back to normal now.

Had the same issue with Safari when upgrading to Plone 3.3.

The solution for me was to reinstall the package and then clear out the javascript cache.

No responses can be added.
