Minor update to ImageSlideShow

July 24, 2008 · Filed Under ImageSlideshow, joomla 

Following on from a number of comments left here on the website and some direct email, including helpful hints and tips, I’ve a minor update to ImageSlideShow to share.

It is a minor update but an important one. Unfortunately due to the way ISS has to work and my limited knowledge of Joomla, ISS would fail validation for XHTML due to how the internal CSS and javascript files were loaded.

David sent me a resolution to this demonstrating the use of the addStyleSheet and the addScript functionality of the Joomla JDocument class 

$doc = &Jfactory::getDocument();
$doc->addStyleSheet(JURI::root(true) . '/modules/mod_briaskISS/mod_briaskISS.css');
$doc->addScript(JURI::root(true) . '/modules/mod_briaskISS/mod_briaskISS.js');

So that change has been made, tested and the updated version of ImageSlideShow is available from here .

If you have any questions on ImageSlideShow, please post the question in my ImageSlideShow forum.

    I love this thing!!! It is perfect for dropping in content article items instead of fixed user positions. All you need to do is copy the module… then save a custom position ie: content_example.
    Love it :) Thanks!
