[SOLVED] DOCTYPE line appears to remove slideshow
 
I couldn't get my slideshow to work in Wordpress using Atahualpa theme but it worked when I created a simple webpage in Notepad.

So I copied the code from the Wordpress page and went through it line by line to see what might be the problem.

It turned out that when I removed the very first line, the one containing DOCTYPE, it started working.

As you can see from the source of these two pages the only difference is that in the one where the slideshow is working I have removed the first line of code. Apart from that they are identical:

http://kitchenquestions.com/galleria/galleria.html

I used a validator tool to check the page and it reported no errors.

Any ideas why this is happening? Is there anything I can do about it?

Thanks! :)

(Note: There is an extra line in the working one at the top i.e.

<script src="/A2EB891D63C8/avg_ls_dom.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

but this isn't in the original, it appears only when displayed in a browser window).

How are you generating you slideshow? Have you tried any WordPress slideshow plugins?

I use Galleria (http://galleria.aino.se/) which I believe is one of the most popular gallery slideshow programs. It uses pretty simple javascript.

I seem to have fixed it now anyway, I fell back on my Flash programming and that seems to have done the trick!

(see here: http://kitchenquestions.com/galleria-2)

Thanks anyway!
