Slideshow not working on website using js-query

I added a js-query slideshow, the instructions I found here on the accepted solution
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/21257327/Picture-Rotator.html

I got it working on my PC fine but it's not working on the web.

The only file I can think that needs copied to the web are fadeslideshow.js (js-query-1.3.2.min.js was already working and still works).

I have no idea why this isn't working on the web, this is kind of a debugging question but I have no clue what could be wrong and where to start debugging.

Here's the site (warning ! pro-Sarah Palin site)

thanks, will review tonight
Yes, please give us more of your html from the page. It is hard to tell what you do have on the page or not. The more you give the more accurate the answers should be.
 
Selvol
selvol, can't you just view the source to see my html ?
selvol, re: 26169036, I did all that, that's why it's working in Chrome.
NO, I don't know how to do that...  
Oh no wait I screwed up with that request.....
I may need help....   Kidding.. I am lookning now.  
 
Be back in 5
First thing I noticed it
 <script type="text/javascript" src="http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/fadeslideshow.js">     <--- bad link
 
Should be

 <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex14/fadeslideshow.js">'
 
 
ANd you Do nOT want Sara Palin?  Correct
You also have a second refrence to
jquery-1.3.2.min.js
Just like I wrote it,
Delete that as it is called in the first
http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/jquery-1.3.2.min.js 
 
It was working earlier for me.
 
Just make sure you have all the inamges uploaded to the site or some where on the net . And that thet script points to them.  
 
 
You slide show images are pointing here
http://www.info-scroll.com/going_rogue_book_tour_phase_i/pics/sarah_all/sarah_family/
So
family_portrait_3.jpg
Need to be in that folder making the address
http://www.info-scroll.com/going_rogue_book_tour_phase_i/pics/sarah_all/sarah_family/family_portrait_3.jpg
 All the other need to be in that folder also for the slide show to work.
I Hope I am on the right track
ok, thanks for the followup, can't work on it until tonight.
selvol, thanks for the tips. Everything works on my machine, I believe it's set up correctly.
It works on Opera, so something must be wrong. My guess is my site has so much broken HTML the slideshow goes kaput.
On this easy site it works in FF, Chrome, and IE (http://www.info-scroll.com/lebron_james4.htm)
well, it works on my machine for all browsers.
but it doesn't work on the web . . . :-(
I've checked and double-checked,
 

web-server-files.jpg
I got it working !
All I did was move the slideshow page to another directory, and it worked  . . .
Have a look, http://www.info-scroll.com/going_rogue_book_tour_phase_i/
- click on Sarah Slideshow top left picture
I just got back.  Not my intension.   
Feels good. Like you finally got the hardest simple thing. 
Web development can be tricky.  I have thing pop up daily. And it always 1 thing causing the problem.    Just   Remember 
 A web page is nothing nut a text file.   That points to all that it is told to .   Every thing must be on the inter net for it to be viewed by the world.
The inter net is every computer that is interconnected in a net.  YOur computer mine and the guy next door are all a piece of the inter net.
Not sure where I am going with the internet story..................


Point it is not as hard as it may look.  
I am Glad you got it yourself............ I hope you are too.
Good job/

it WAS working, then I do something and break it.

I will build it up again tonight and look at your sample as well, thank you.
