// This external .js file contains all of the editable 

// configuration data for a jClicker slide show. It is 

// the only file you should edit. Line 17 of your 

// clicker.html file should link to this file as a linked 

// Javascript source file



// Be careful of all items in single quotes; single quotes

// or apostrophes intended for display must be entered as:

//                \'

// All JavaScript command lines must end in a semi-colon





// These are data holders for your slide show; do not touch

var slides = new Array();

var menus = new Array();

var cap = new Array();    

var ic = 0;







//  Below are the 7 sections that are needed to customize

//  the slide show.



//--------------------------------------------------------

// START OF CONFIGURATION AREA

//--------------------------------------------------------



//--------------------------------------------------------

//  (1) SET UP THE SLIDES

//  The slides are set up in order with data stored in

//  arrays. The variable 'ic' is a counter that keeps

//  track of your data. You will need to enter the

//  data for your slide show in sets of 4 lines as

//  explained below. All data must be enclosed in

//  single quotes and end with a semi-colon; if you

//  need a single quote in your menu or caption, use:

//     \'



//  (a) First increase the slide counter:

//      ic++;



//  (b) Each slide needs an associated slide image

//  that is inside the "images" folder, e.g.

//      slides[ic] = 'coolphoto.jpg';

//

//  (c) The menus array holds the text  that will appear in 

//  the lower pop-up menu to identify each slide (these 

//  should be kept to a short length so the menu does not 

//  grow overly wide), e.g.

//      menus[ic] = 'My Cool Menu Name';

//

//  (d) Finally, the cap array holds the text for the image

//  caption (if the slide source is HTML, this string

//  is ignored, so assign blank values of "" to save space):

//      cap[ic] = 'This is the caption for my cool photo.';



//  This a single slide is set up by this group of code:

//      ic++;

//      slides[ic] = 'coolphoto.jpg';

//      menus[ic] = 'My Cool Menu Name';

//      cap[ic] = 'This is the caption for my cool photo.';



//  The order of the slide show is the order in which the 4

//  line data is written below; so you can re-order your slides

//  simply by cutting and pasting the 4 lines of code.
