Hey everyone  
Well, I finally I my slideshow working with most of the features I wanted. Now I just have 1 thing left to do. All my images will be stored in a database. So I have to change the xml file to a php file. Which I thought would be easy, but its not…once I changed xmlData.load(“images.xml”); to phpData.load(“images.php”); it can no longer read it. What do I need to do to have to read a php file? And then how do I make it look for images.php?slideshow=1 because thats what it would be needed to do. Something that I thought would be easy, isn’t so easy anymore…  
Thanks for any help 🙂
