   Using version 1.0.5 - the WP error has been fixed, but it looks like the image rotation doesnt work in Safari - it does work in Firefox.

   Anyone else having the same problem?

   Hello,

   Image rotation should work fine in all browsers.
   Please report back if you experience issues with it.

   All the best,
   Antonie

   Image rotation does not work properly in Safari for Windows. When the slideshow is first loaded only the first two thumbnails show up. When the page the slideshow resides on is refreshed, the slideshow then displays correctly.

   I cannot say if it does this on Safari for Mac, so I do not have a Mac here to test it. But I have tested on Safari for Windows on two different PC's, one running XP, the other Vista, and the same issue arises on both.

   It works properly on IE 7 and 8 as well as Firefox.

   I can report that this slideshow does NOT work properly when the slideshow is first loaded under Safari for Mac, either. It works properly on IE 7 and 8 as well as Firefox. But not on Safari for Windows or OS-X.

   This is on a WP 2.9.2 site that runs PHP 5.2.6-1 and the only other plugins that are installed are:

   All in One SEO Pack
   Exec-PHP
   Google XML Sitemaps

   none of which should interfere with the slideshow under Safari.

   The site in question is . Go to the Media page and click either "Friends" or "Publications" and you will see that the slideshow does not load properly under Safari.

   I posted a comment about this issue on the plugin's blog page awhile back, but it was never approved and eventually was deleted. (Actually, no new comments have been approved there since late February). This is the third time I have posted either here or on the plugin's site about this issue and I yet to receive any answer. No offense, but this is very poor support.

   Are you still supporting this plugin and/or is there a fix in the works for this issue? If not, and as much as I hate to, I will need to go with a different plugin, as a good 30%+ of that site's traffic come in from people using Safari.

   I finally got the slideshow thumbs to display properly in Safari.

   The CSS was causing Safari to hiccup when loading the thumbs.

   Changing the last line gallery-css.php from

   #slider img { cursor:pointer; border:1px solid #666; padding:2px; -moz-border-radius:4px; -webkit-border-radius:4px; float:left !important; }

   to

   #slider img { cursor:pointer; width: 55px; border:1px solid #666; padding:2px; }

   resolved it.

   Safari seems to demand a hard-coded width for the thumb image. Setting width to auto or min-width does not seem to work properly. Also, as long as you have a clear at the end of page, (like in footer.php), the float:left does not seem to be needed in the #slider img declaration.
