Hi guys,

I'm attempting to insert a vertical image scroll into customer/home.tpl. It works when I place it directly within home.tpl, but then I obviously have a very large section of javascript on my home page. Hence I have been trying to call upon the file externally, with no luck. I've read all the posts I could find on this topic, but so far nothing seems to work.

script is called scroll.js, and is located skin1/scroll.js

<!--

///////configure the below four variables to change the style of the slider///////
//set the scrollerwidth and scrollerheight to the width/height of the LARGEST image in your slideshow!
var scrollerwidth='103px'
var scrollerheight='106px'
//3000 miliseconds=3 seconds
var pausebetweenimages=3000

//configure the below variable to change the images used in the slideshow. If you wish the images to be clickable, simply wrap the images with the appropriate <a> tag
var slideimages=new Array()
slideimages[0]='[img]PE01805A.gif[/img]'
slideimages[1]='[img]PE01803A.gif[/img]'
slideimages[2]='[img]TN00411A.gif[/img]'
slideimages[3]='[img]PE02054A.gif[/img]'
slideimages[4]='[img]f[/img]'
//extend this list

customer/home.tpl:

{literal}<script language="JavaScript1.2" src="/skin1/scroll.js"></script>{/literal}

I've tried pasting the {literal} tags within scroll.js instead, but that doesn't work either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks .... Chris
