JavaScript Undefined Error

Question

Hi,

I'm getting this JavaScript error with IE explorer:

'Slideshow is undefined'

The error points to this bit of code:

<script type="text/javascript">
new SlideShow('listOfImages');
</script>

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Thanks!

Answer 1

May be you didn't include the required javascripts files for mootools

http://code.google.com/p/slideshow/

for example, include mootools, and slideshow

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/mootools.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/slideshow.js"></script>

Answer 2

SlideShow is a name of an object constructor. It has to be defined prior to its use in the script tag either in the embedded script or in a file loaded by the tag
