Slideshow freezes on previous button

Can you please provide steps I can repeat to re-create the problem you are 
seeing?
Also please provide the JS / CSS you are using in your show or a link to an 
example
online.

I sent you an email yesterday with a link to my page with the slideshow
implementation. Did you get it?

I have also noticed that I must sometimes click twice on the thumbnails before 
the
next image is loaded. This happens even when I wait a long period.

I did not receive the email. Also I will need steps to be able to re-create the
effect you are seeing before I will be able to fix it.

Strange, I sent to the address you have listed here.
There is really not much to recreate. Just click on the thumbnails in my 
slideshow or
the prev button until nothing happens.
I will resend the e-mail now. Let me know if you haven't received it.

Thanks!

Did you get it now Aeron?

I went to http://www.electricprism.com/aeron/slideshow/ and the same problem 
appears.

This is what you do:

When you enter the page, click on Pause.
Now click on the prev button. After a few clicks the slideshow will freeze with 
the
loading indicator running endlessly.

The same thing happens by clicking on pause and then clicking backward on the
thumbnails. You will finally enter a state when the loader keeps on going.
You will also notice how very often you must click twice on the thumbnails 
before a
transition is made.

I have tested this with Firefox 3.0b5 and 2.0.14.

Hope this helps!

The problem is found on line 200 of slideshow.js.  If the slideshow is paused 
and the
image is not finished loading, preload isn't called again.  My guess as to why 
the
next button always works is that since the next image is preloaded when the 
current
image finishes loading, it passes the test on line 170.

Haven't looked long enough to know what the best solution is, but changing line 
200 to
   this.timer = this.preload.delay(100, this, fast);
seems to work.
