I have an image gallery with thumbnails that you can click on to go to a certain image and it also automatically plays like a slide show. But while the slideshow is playing, if you click on an image, it goes to that image but then the slideshow picks up where it left off (so if the slide show was on image 2 and you click on image 4, it proceeds to image 3 and then 4 again) and I'd like it to start playing from the image that was clicked: so if you clicked on image three, I'd like the slideshow to continue from there and go to image four. I have just modified code that I found from a tutorial and so I can't get it to do exactly what I want. thanks.
see what I have here: http://www.kelliegraphicdesign.com/gallery/com_daybreakgarbett2.html

here is my code:Start Free Trial
