This show loads immediately in Firefox, but takes several seconds if the cache is clear in MSIE 7 or 8. What's the fix?rnrnhttp://www.ravecomm.com/xtreme/clients2.html

Hello,

Internet Explorer has some problems with javascript functions inside table tags. Try to move this script just outside of the table (after you close the table tag):
<!-- Banner render begin -->
<script type="text/javascript" > render_xtd_is(); </script>
<!-- Banner render end -->


Regards,

Done, still takes about five seconds to load without cache. After cached, it's OK.

</table>
</div>
<!-- Banner render begin -->
<script type="text/javascript" > render_xtd_is(); </script>
<!-- Banner render end -->

Hello John,

Well, the loading time also depends on the number and size of your images. When it's cached the browser doesn't have to download the pictures and that's why there isn't any loading time. You can place a preloader from the interface if you want. It will notify the users that the banner is loading.

Regards,
Andrei

I understand that. I've resized several of the images from 40k to about 12 with no noticeable effect.

I noticed that your example at http://www.extendstudio.com/samples/Creative_DW_Image_Show/Seaside%20Beauties/ only loads with a mouseover in MSIE.

Can we expect a fix for this? I certainly do not want to place a notification for people to wait.

Hi John,

The MSIE issue is already fixed in the latest version (the sample was probably not updated; we will fix that). I also tested your page on IE 7 and 8 and the slide show seemed to work fine.

Regarding the loading time, that's just a matter of internet connection speed and image size.

Best regards,
Horea RADU
