hi,

finally managed to logged in again. took like the whole night to reset my password. lol.

anyway, so i’ve followed the tutorial for the xml-based flash slideshow here and it was awesome. now i’ve been trying to implement at least 5 or more slideshows in the site im making. i have 5 links in my swf file and each link loads a seperate slideshow into a single movieclip. my problem is that after i move from one slideshow to another, the delay in the slideshows goes crazy. i set the delay for each slideshows at 5000 so that should show the image 5 seconds. but after i go through 5 slideshows the images just rapidly changes. and the more i click on each link the faster the images change.

what do you think is the problem???

tnx
