There are still a few problems, but that is a great start and it will soon be an excellent and clever graphic!

The rotation problem is now almost fixed, and the static image is now visible in Firefox.

I have tested this in Firefox 15, IE9, Safari 5.1.7, and Chrome 21. The remaining problems I have spotted so far are:
  • The centre of rotation is about 20px too far to the right. This means the rotation images on the right of the module overlap the frame and the ones on the left are well inside the module.;
  • I can only get the links to work when clicking the header or static image in the information box. I thought it was supposed to work on the rotating image as well, otherwise it is not so obvious that there are links.
  • In Firefox, the associated rotating image disappears during the transition in the information box. In your earlier release it only did this on Fade, now it does it on all transition types.
  • Finally, and most strangely. When I click a link, instead of it taking me to the correct Article, the text of the article appears on the page that includes the module.

Hi Ivan and Milos, thank you for all you hard work. I think we are nearly there!

  • The option to set my own centre works fine. It is probably a bit of a quick workaround, but it does the job. Although you may want to check why the default centre is so far away from the middle of the frame.
  • The links are as before - only working on the information panel - is that what you intended?
  • The disappearing rotating image problem in Firefox 15 has now changed - and is worse. Two of the rotating images now disappear during the information box transition. Not a problem with IE9, Safari, Chrome. I have now checked and find it is also not a problem with Firefox 14 - the release version. Firefox 15 is a beta version, so it is possible it is a browser bug. However, you may want to check it out if you have not yet done so.
  • Finally, there is the problem of the links not taking me to the correct page, but opening the article below the module. Have you any idea why this might be? I must admit Joomla URLs are still a bit of a mystery to me, so it is possible I have done something wrong.

So, as soon as I can get the links to open up a new page I will be a happy man. If you can help with that it would be good. In the meantime I leave the test page running on my site at the URL I gave in the earlier posting.

Best wishes

Hi,
Now realise that I was setting up the wrong URL link details. Interesting effect though, could be useful in some circumstances - if I can remember what I did!

Now moving this to its location on the home page,

Thanks again for all your help in getting this to work for me.

Alan
