Thank you soo much for the prompt response and answer. I usually check that forum post before, but for some reason I neglected to this time. Thanks again. I was hoping to ask you a second question. I'm a coldfusion guy, so I'm still trying to get this javascript stuff down. I'm using the following snippet of code to determine if a next/previous button should be shown and then having it link to the next slide like so...
<cfif theSlidePosition neq 1>
<a href="slideview.cfm?presentation=#presentation#&slide=#ListGetAt(slideNum,(theSlidePosition - 1))#"><img src="../assets/headers/previous.gif" width="81" height="20" border="0" alt="Previous"></a>
<cfelse> </cfif>
<cfif theSlidePosition neq listLen(slideNum)>
<a href="slideview.cfm?presentation=#presentation#&slide=#ListGetAt(slideNum,(theSlidePosition + 1))#"><img src="../assets/headers/next.gif" width="57" height="20" border="0" alt="Next"></a>
<cfelse> </cfif>
so for example, if it's slide 1, you wouldn't see a previous button, but you would see a next button with a link to the next one. Is there a way to accomplish this in javascript, or am I shooting up the wrong tree. Thanks beforehand!!!
