I maintain a website for a flower society, www.dahlia.org . I am trying to use a CMS Made Simple plugin called "rotate" to rotate pictures on my home page. This plugin works beautifully on IE, Chrome, and Safari...but on Firefox the rotating pictures stop, hesitate, or hang during the fade portion of the rotation. I always have problems with the rotating pictures on Firefox, but not the exact same problem. You can see the problem on the webpage above.

I have reinstalled Firefox and set all the settings back to default...but no improvement.

Other than setting parameters in the plugin the only other change I made was to add a style parameter on a div:

print '
'."\n"; (line 154 in code below):

Plug in CODE:

<h3>What is Rotate?</h3>
 <p>Rotate is a plugin that creates a slideshow from a directory of images using the <a href="http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/" rel="external">jQuery Cycle Plugin</a>.</p>
<h3>How do I use it?</h3>
 <p>Make sure to include the jQuery script, as well as the Cycle Script. Then just place the following tag in your template or content: <code>{rotate}</code></p>
<h3>What parameters can I use with Rotate?</h3>
 <p>
  <ul>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>path</tt> - Relative URL to pick images from (default is uploads/images/).</li>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>id</tt> - Unique ID for rotating div (default is rotate... must be unique for multiple uses on one page).</li>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>effect</tt> - Transition Effect (default is fade; see <a href="http://malsup.com/jquery/cycle/browser.html" rel="external">Effects Browser</a> for available effects).</li>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>delay</tt> - Interval between images (default is 5 seconds).</li>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>speed</tt> - Transition speed (default is 2 seconds).</li>
   <li><em>(optional)</em> <tt>height</tt> - Image height (default is unspecified, eg. the actual image height).</li>

  </ul>
 </p>
 <p>You can change every parameter default by editing line 20-31 of <em>function.rotate.php</em>.</p>
<h3>Javascript</h3>
 <p>Make sure to include the following scripts before using {rotate}. You need to upload cycle.js to your server and change /PATH/TO/ to it's correct path.</p>
 <ul>

Oops. This is the first time I have tried to use your support...looks like something tried to process the code...it is somewhat garbled...how can I send the code for you to see?
