I am trying to view a slideshow using Google Chrome. The new Beta of Chrome allows for plugins and there is a Cooliris plugin (which I have installed), so the slideshow should open correctly. When I click on slideshow it is blank. Does any know how to get the slideshow module to work in Google Chrome?

Thanks.


Gallery version (not just "2"):
Module / Theme name & version:
PHP version (e.g. 5.1.6):
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ):
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33):
Database (e.g. MySql 5.0.32):
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD):
Operating system (e.g. Linux):
Browser (e.g. Firefox 2.0):


Gallery version = 2.3 core 1.3.0
PHP version = 4.3.11
Webserver = Apache
Database = mysqlt 5.0.67.d7
Toolkits = Exif, Gd, ImageMagick, ArchiveUpload, LinkItemToolkit
Operating system = Linux
Browser = Chrome 4.0.249.30

Does it work properly with other sites? If you have Cooliris installed you can use it by default on Flickr. Check there and see if you can use it to make sure it's working.

It is working with the other site... I also noticed that it does show the "Cooliris" icon on my pictures and I can pull up a 3D slideshow by clicking on that... the problem is when I click on the "View Slideshow" link (on the left side of the standard theme), it just brings up a blank page and does not show the slideshow.

Edit - I just discoved that it works on the Gallery website.. the URL that the Gallery site sends you to when you click "view slideshow" is:
http://gallery.menalto.com/index.php?q=gallery&g2_view=slideshow.Slideshow&g2_itemId=13343
it the automatically routs you to Cooliris.

On my site the URL is:
http://mylesjay.com/gallery2/v/2009_06/slideshow.html?g2_return=%2Fgallery2%2Fv%2F2009_06%2F

I am wondering if there is a setting that is wrong on my site that could cause this? the strange thing is is works correctly in Firefox.

Try making your site so it doesn't require a login to get in and test that.

Thanks for the suggestion... I tried that and it did not work (I cleared the cashe in my browser to make sure that was not the problem also). Very strange that it works in Firefox, but not in Chrome.

Works for me in FF and chromium V0.3.155.0
See screen-shot attached. I clicked the print screen during the transition, that is why you see a background image as well.

It seems to be a problem with the Cooliris extension in Chrome. If I uninstall that extension it works fine, but when it is installed the slideshow does not work. I am going to send an email to their support team and see if I get any feedback.

still doesn't work. And what's more annoying is that when I uninstall cooliris extension from chrome and click on a slideshow, it still launches cooliris control and then complains about some crossdomain.xml file that I need at the root of my web server

@dxm007
If you are using my update you will see my note about the required crossdomain.xml.

I just spent a few minutes and have fixed the chrome issue.
try it here.
get it here.

there was only a small template change for those not upgrading to this latest version(2.1.0), so only need to clear template cache - no version bump.
