    I put a link at a blog to a webslide I've made and two folks who are using firefox said they tried several times to access the link but got a try back later message.

    Are webslides still being supported?

    Couldn't find any reference to them on v2 pages.

    Hi,
    I just tested it and it's ok. When did they experience the problem? Does your list is a public list? Can you play it yourself?
  • Energy Net
     
    Yes. there was no problem... He checked several different times and got a "server busy" message.

    I tried to find another example for one of the guys to review, and couldn't seem to find any descriptions from the 2.0 home page that indicated you were still supporting it. I got fearful that because I didn't see it that you might have canceled it as a feature...

    One last question... when linking to an image within a webpage for the slideshow, rather than the whole, page, the server always shows that link as busy... Is think kind of link viable?

    the page is public, and I had no problem running it myself.

    =======> Don't worry, we will support it.

    ====> We use snap.com to provide the slideshow image, however, it refused to work recently. We will look into it.

    I'm also having difficulty with the Webslides. When I try to download the widget, I get an error message that tells me to try returning to Diigo's main page. I can get to the Webslides page from there, but when I grab the code and try to paste it into my wiki, I get an error message on my wiki page that says the HTML is not valid. I have no trouble as long as I'm inserting the Webslides buttons. I only seem to have difficulty when attempting to use the slide show option. Thoughts?

    Sorry, I just realized that "download widget" was a mischaracterization. The alternate text actually says "Get Widget" and it is located at the bottom of this page: http://slides.diigo.com/list/chericem/wiki-examples

    It appears to be working now, and takes me here: http://slides.diigo.com/widget/get_widget?sid=3328

    However, when I grab the code for the Play in Place (600*500) - iframe boder="0" src="http://slides.diigo.com/widget/slides?sid=3328&mode=onfull" marginwidth="0" style="border: 2px solid rgb(195, 217, 255);" marginheight="0" frameborder="no" height="500" width="600" >

    (P.S. I deleted the 1st and last < > so you could see the code b/c it loaded just fine in this message!)

    As to alternative methods, I did get it to work on my wiki, but only by going to someone else's page who had a functioning version of the view I wanted, opening their Webslides slideshow, grabbing the code out of that, and the replacing their link with mine.

    Thanks for your rapid response!
