Hi,

I started to build a website on JA Uvite.
This is what I did:

1. I put a slide show from Sanidine II and put it instead of “JA-NEWS” everything works fine.

2. I put 2 external links under “our gallery”

However, if I leave the website running without touching for about 10 – 15 min. the thumbs on the slide show disappear and one of the external links disappear as well. But if I refresh the website everything goes back to being normal.

What could be the problem?

using joomla 1.5.8

Thank you.

This is possibly caused by the slideshow using up too much memory on your PC.

Let it happen again and this time before you refresh press CTRL+ALT+DEL and see how big your browser process is. FIrefox can sometimes go over 300,000K on me if I leave a page open with flash or javascript running. When this happens the animation on the page can become very unstable and can pause and jitter. A simple page refresh dumps the memory and start new again.

It’s not really something to worry about. Visitors almost never stay on a webpage more than 30 seconds nevermind 10 minutes.

This must be some “bug” in FF, when you use other browsers this does not happen, “strangely”. Generally my FF always goes over 300,000 and this is the reason I do not use it no more. Wonderful tools like Firebug but this memory issue is making it bad at all. Using Google Chrome, nothing like this happens, but therefore Chrome has some caching issues that are bad when you just work on the site and want to see changes, often the cache is cleared only when you restart the computer, also with Joomla cache off completely.

When you watch the cartoon about how Chrome works you will see what is done different to FF…http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html

To use IE is sometimes still the best when you work on a site, you will always make everything right, to work in IE and so it will also work in FF and other browsers correctly, most of the time. 😉

It will happen to a certain extent in all browsers. The reason it doesn’t happen in Google chrome so much is because chrome uses a separate processes for each tab.
