Hi Mark,
Your CSS code above for the slideshow perfectly resolved an issue i was having so thank you very much for that.
I wondered if anyone else was having problems with getting this code to work in Internet Explorer 11?
My knowledge of CSS isn't too bad but i have little to no understanding on browser specific prefixes. I have checked, double checked and triple checked my code and cannot see any errors.
The slideshow runs beautifully in Chrome but doesn't even show in Internet Explorer.
Your thoughts would be very much appreciated.

@DvDj I had the same problem; remove the quotes from line 117 and it works.

Also changed line 57-59 to be 100/100/1 instead of 0s so it didn't fade through white the first time through the slides.

Actually, since IE has only ever supported the unprefixed CSS animations, this can be simplified quite a bit. Suspect the same is true with killing the -moz and -o prefixes as well.

Hi,
Thank you so much for the demo! This is excellent!
The only problem I am having is that although I have got the slideshows working perfectly now on the web and on iPads and iPhones running IOS 7, it does not work in IOS 8. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thank you.

Before adding the prefix code above, it worked fine in Firefox 36 and IE 11, but not in Chrome, Android tablet/phone, or iPad (don't know the IOS version of the iPad.) After adding the prefix code above get exact same results. Works fine in Firefox 36 and IE 11, but not in Chrome, Android tablet/phone, nor iPad. Any ideas?

ok it worked.. thnx

Thank you it was helpful.

Hi, thanks for this nice slideshow version. Unfortunately, I am trying to make it responsive, and not succeeding. I have set max-width: 500px; and max-height: 450px; for the slideshow, and set the slideshow figure to max-width:100%; but they do not resize in smaller windows. Can you please help me figure out what I am missing? Many thanks!
