# Possible Javascript Issues

 * I haven’t been able to track down the source of my problems, but I’m assuming
   it’s javascript related.
 * I’ve been trying to get multiple image galleries working at [http://timdonaldson.com/blogtest/photography/](http://timdonaldson.com/blogtest/photography/)(
   which is based off the html 5 reset theme: [http://html5reset.org/](http://html5reset.org/))
   but I’m not having any luck.
 * If I switch the site’s theme back to the default twentytwelve theme, the slideshows
   show up fine.
 * If I use the default reset theme the galleries don’t load, so I’ve been trying
   to compare twentytwelve with html5 reset, but I can’t seem to track down the 
   cause of the issues.
 * This is the gallery I’m currently trying to work with: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/slideshow-gallery/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/slideshow-gallery/)
 * Any ideas?

 * Deactivate some plug-ins one-by-one to check whether they’re the culprit.

 * The slideshow is the only activated plug-in at the moment. I’ve tried deactivating
   and re-activating it too.

 * Are you sure this page is supposed to have the slideshow? [http://timdonaldson.com/blogtest/photography/](http://timdonaldson.com/blogtest/photography/)
   
   I don’t see it at all or any HTML elements to contain it.

 * I see the div is set to display:none for the slideshow class.
 *     ```
       <p>Here are some sweet pics yo</p>
       <ul id="slideshow" class="slideshow" style="display:none;">
       <div id="slideshow-wrapper-s71w">
       ```
   
 * The first thing is to find out why its not displayed.

 * Thanks for the input guys.
 * I started off trying to _fix_ the display:none problem, but then I realised that
   when I change the theme back to twentytwelve, that div is still set to display:
   none… even though the slideshow is displayed correctly.
 * And also, If I look at the page with firefox and delete that ‘display:none’ through
   firebug, the slideshow is displayed, but without any images or content.
 * So this is what makes me think it must be a problem with how I call the javascript.

 * Just been checking the Error Consol in Firefox and I’ve found these 3 relating
   to jQuery:
