Flash JPG Rotator – Fixing the IE problem
After browsing for a good Flash JPG Roatator on the Internet, I finally found a great one that was created by Jeroen Wijering. The rotator is great! That is until I got numerous reports by people using Internet Explorer that after the first round of rotations, the banner goes blank!
Considering this banner is on a fairly high traffic site (www.calvarycch.org), I couldn’t allow this to be a problem. I went onto the forums for this project and many other people had a similar problem.

I read this article and I have the same problem!
I would appreciate if you could send me repaired .swf file on my e-mail
Thank you!
Sure, I would be happy to. Perhaps I will make it part of this post later on today.
Can I also have the fixed file ?
Ok, I posted the file.
I tried this in firefox and it still will go blank after a bit!!!!!
What Kind of scritp you run your website on? could be the problem..
The link to download file seem to be broken, is it possible to add the file once again please. Thanks!
Ok, Jonas, it looks like I forgot to move the files from the old site to this one. It should be fixed for you now!
Can u send me the updated swf if you wouldn’t mind.
You can actually just click the "Download" link at the bottom of the entry.
Not working in FireFox! Some times does not show any image at start and it also goes blank after a few rotations.
Sadly, I am not using (and haven’t been using) this application in a long time now. I would suggest that any issues you may be having with it to either contact the original developer or to go another route, as there are many. Cheers
I really appreciate the time spent writing this as it is very documented and very easy to understand. This solution also helped me with the same problem I was having with my sideshow. However, it doesn’t seem to work with my showcase images. It’s the exact same code but I did add a preloader that also uses an onLoadStart and onLoadProgress. Niether the preloader shows as it does in all other browsers nor does the image.
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
mclListener.onLoadStart = function(mc:MovieClip) {
_root.bar._visible = true;
_root.border._visible = true;
_root.pText._visible = true;
showcaseOnDeck = true;
};
mclListener.onLoadProgress = function(mc:MovieClip, lBytes, tBytes) {
if (((lBytes/tBytes)*100) > preloader) {
preloader = Math.floor((lBytes/tBytes)*100)
_root.bar._xscale = preloader;
}
};
mclListener.onLoadInit = function (mc:MovieClip) {
//trace(mc);
_root.goAheadShowDisplay = true;
showcaseOnDeck = null;
_root.lockedStocked = false;
_root.border._visible = false;
_root.bar._visible = false;
preloader = 0;
}
var mcDisplay:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcDisplay.addListener(mclListener);
