Tried now (and live on the aforementioned url), but zero effect whatsoever. :-(

You must insert the statement on DOM Ready. I've edited my answer.

Simeon 2010-04-14 13:46:04

Uhm, I did.I put it last in my -existing- on document.ready function. Unless I'm even less sane than I thought :-/

Agrajag 2010-04-14 13:49:55

It seem to be working now?

Simeon 2010-04-14 14:01:44

Sorry, I was wrong. Where on the page, or in which JS file, is this included?

Simeon 2010-04-14 14:07:08

Line 78. I even added it for "gallery" too, since I've used that as the class for the ul, not "galleria", but neither made any difference.(nor did replacing the complex galleria-invocation with the trivial one on line 56) Thanks a lot for taking the time for looking into this, I appreciate it !

I've just been trying to work this out myself, and the problem with this (I think) is that it first requires the DOM changes that Galleria makes to be done. Therefore, putting this inside the `.ready` doesn't work, but calling it later (say, with Firebug) does. However, the other solution (`<li class="active">`) works perfectly. Thanks.

Answer 2

+2 A:

I think I've found the problem. Add <li class="active"> instead of <img class="active" ... /> and your first image will load automatically.

/facepalm. That was kinda embarassing. I don't entirely get why the .click() method didn't work though, but this works, as it should. Thanks a lot !

Agrajag 2010-04-15 11:21:19

@Agrajag the `.click()` method doesn't work because the DOM for Galleria isn't completely loaded when `.click()` is called. If you call the `.click()` method slightly later (say, with Firebug) it works as you would expect. I know this because I've been struggling with this exact question over the past couple of days :-)
