I’m using a version of XML Slideshow Photogallery that loads slideshow.swf (and other pages) into master.swf

It plays good the first time through and when I trace myInterval, I can see it increment 1,2,3 … with each slide.

When I go to another page and then come back to the slideshow - the myInterval will skip a couple or I get 2 values at the same time. This causes the slideshow to display every other image (or every 3, etc)

I can see that the problem is from not clearing the myInterval variable properly.

the clearInterval(myInterval); function seems to just clear the last instance created  
Is there a way to clear all instances?
