I just downloaded Opera 7. I thought it was only available for purchase, but see it's available with ads, as 6 is. Tried the slideshow. No transitions, but the slides to move now (is that because you fixed the show)
Since I had only uploaded the fixed JavaScript moments before seeing your response, the answer is no.
--Java and Javascript both enabled out of the box. Went back to retry 6. Still stuck on slide 1.
Since I'm not using Java, its setting shouldn't matter.
The lack of fading is due to lack of opacity support. Firefox supports opacity itself, while Safari and older Geckos support KHTMLOpacity and MozOpacity, respectively, and even IE6 has support through a filter. I had thought IE5.5 did, too, so I'll need to look into it some more.
Regarding staying on the first image, as near as I can tell from Opera's Web site, V6 lacks sufficient DOM support. Even IE 5.01 supports it enough. For shame, Opera, for shame. At least Opera 7 is better.
A note regarding the technique I used: While fading one image from 0% to 100%, the other image goes from 100% to 0%. IMHO, it produces a nicer effect than only fading one of them.
