[Plugin: Frontpage-Slideshow] Frontpage slideshow interfwering with the add/edit post

We are still having problems with this plugin. We are now on a live site. Can you please check:

plugin unique ID is: 2571

The plugin worked again on the front end once I implemnted your advice given here:

But the problem at the admin end in post add/edit pages still persist. The page does not load after the ‘Slide Link’ text. It looks as if something is breaking the code or an additional closing div.

It is not the edit page. It is the output of this plugin in the edit window that is terminating the page from loading further. The html source of any page that I open to edit, ends here:

<table class=”widefat” cellspacing=”0″ width=”100%” id=”inactive-plugins-table”>

<tbody class=”plugins”>

<td width=”100″ align=”center” style=”border-bottom: 1px solid #dfdfdf; overflow: auto;”>

<input type=”text” name=”fs-title” id=”fs-title” value=”” style=”width: 100%” />

NOTHING IS OUTPUTTED AFTER THIS.

Jeff nothing wrong in the code above BUT it should load beyond this also. It suddenly breaks. And it breaks at the html that is being outputted by FS. Have a look at this screen-shot:

Jeff, since no error was coming up, I tried to locate the part which was generating the html that breaks. I tried to remove some code after which the edit page now loads completely. Here is the code I removed during testing to identify the problem:

if ($meta_box['name'] == 'fs-link') {
						$attachments = array_merge(
								get_children(array(
									'post_type' 	=> 'page',
									'post_parent'		=> null,
								)),
								get_children(array(
									'post_type' 	=> 'post',
									'post_parent'		=> null,
								))
								);
						$posts = '';
						foreach ($attachments as $attachment) {
							$permalink = get_permalink($attachment->ID);
							$posts .= '<option value="'.$permalink.'"';
							if (get_post_meta($post->ID, $meta_box['name'], true) != '' && (get_post_meta($post->ID, $meta_box['name'], true) == $attachment->guid || get_post_meta($post->ID, $meta_box['name'], true) == $permalink)) $posts.= ' selected="selected"';
							$posts .= '>'.$attachment->post_title.'</option>';
						}
						if (get_post_meta($post->ID, $meta_box['name'], true) == '')
							$posts = '<option value="" disabled="disabled" selected="selected">'.__('Choose a page on this blog').'</option>'.$posts;
						echo '<select onchange="document.getElementById(\''.$meta_box['name'].'\').value = this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">'.$posts.'</select>';
					}

I still do not know what’s wrong in this code but removing it allows the page to load fully. I hope this helps.
