News Slider

[13rad]

I've been editing a cms decided to add the new News slider but I'm having an issue the Promo Bullets don't seem to show up nor does the slideshow work it does load up all the news articles but yet again Promo Bullets don't show up nor does it move.

Image:

Slider Code:

<div id="promo-box">

    <div id="promo-bullets"></div>

<?php
$to5 = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM cms_news ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 5") or die(mysql_error());
?>

<?php $i = 0; while($newsobject = mysql_fetch_assoc($to5)){ $i++; ?>

        <div class="promo-container" style="background-image: url(%www%/Top_Story_Images/<?php echo $newsobject['image']; ?>)<?php if($i != '1'){ ?>; display: none<?php } ?>">
            <div class="promo-content-container">
                <div class="promo-content">
                    <div class="title"><?php echo $newsobject['title']; ?></div>
                    <div class="body"><?php echo $newsobject['shortstory']; ?></div>
                </div>
            </div>
            <div class="promo-link-container">
<div class="enter-hotel-btn">
<div class="open enter-btn">
             <a href="%www%/index.php?p=news&id=<?php echo $newsobject['id']; ?>">Read the full article &raquo;</a>
        <b></b>
    </div>
</div>
<div style="color:#FFF;margin-top:25px;margin-left:-210px;">Posted on: <b><?php echo date('F d, Y', $newsobject['published']); ?></b></div>
            </div>
        </div>
        <?php }?>

</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.observe("dom:loaded", function()
{
    PromoSlideShow.init();
});
</script>

Thanks for any suggestions!

How do you expect the javascript to work? It doesn't seem to even be calling to the script and the script doesn't change images?

 

[13rad]

No it does not it just sticks on one single image. It basically ignores the script.

 

[JayC]

When is it suppose to change? When something is clicked or after a certain amount of seconds

 

[13rad]

Its suppose to change after an amount of seconds I would say. Here is a gif of how it should be

 

[JayC]

They are different? One is longer (but that could just be the column size on your cms) but one has a date, was this a release or an edit you did

 

[13rad]

That gif is from Habboon but that was just an example of what my slider is meant to do but yet again it doesn't do that only sticks on one page.

Do you have more than 1 news article?

 

[13rad]

Yes there is. It has loaded them but the script is basically being ignored.
