Slideshow problems

[davidjsullivan]

Environment: Using Firefox/3.5.2 and IE 8 Using JSON file with references to local images

• Problem 1: Each image is loaded twice.(happens 100% time)
• Problem 2: The images are not loaded until they are needed. I have autoLoad set to true. (happens 100% time)
• Problem 3: Every other image will display for only a very short time regardless of what I have the slideshowInterval set to. For example. In the log below I have slideshowInterval set to 10 seconds. You can see that images 1,3,5 appear 10 seconds after their previous image. However, images 2,4,6 appear for less than 1 second. (happens 70% time)
• Problem 4: The slideshow does not display at all on IE. not sure if this is a bug in the test coe or not.

(In [20285]) Refs #9758 Fixes a number of issues with the dojox.image.SlideShow?. Load notifications were firing twice, now firing just once. Autoload was not working, it is now. The reported issue with IE8 is a problem with the test case, as there is a trailing comma in the test JSON data. The reported issue of images displaying for different lengths of time was not reproducible. AutoStart? would cause the first image to be skipped, this has also been rectified.

[Shane O'Sullivan]

I've checked in fixes to these issues. The problem with IE8 is an error in the test data, as there is a trailing comma in the JSON
