Hello,

I have been working with SWFAddress and Slideshow Pro to create slideshows with deeplinks.

I have most of its working, but I'm still encountering an issue when accessing a image directly from a url. SWFaddress gets the correct value from the url, but then SSP updates with the first image from that album.

here's the example:
http://robertocarroll.com/test/newswfaddress24

It all works well except for when loading from a url, e.g.

http://robertocarroll.com/test/newswfad … content-97

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it loads the first image from that album.

I'm checking if SSP is loaded and if it isn't, using a setstartalbum method to load the correct album, but then it is going through and thinking it is loaded and updating it again. Anyone have any ideas to make this work?

best wishes,
Rob
