Slideshows now recurse into subalbums:
http://www.3e.org/gallery/slideshow.php?set_albumName=GoonPersonal

however, if you click "try the low tech":
http://www.3e.org/gallery/slideshow_low.php?set_albumName=GoonPersonal

You get "This album has no photos to show in a slide show."

----
Gallery version: 1.4.1

From the config wizard:

Quote:
"These settings do not apply to the low tech slideshow."

And how many Gallery users will ever see that config wizard? To the user, it's a bug.

I'm confused. What should we do? Not implement any features that cannot work with the low tech slide show?

That message is correct, if you only have access to the low tech slide show.

There is a bug where some browsers (like Konqueror) are forced to low tech version when they shouldn't be, and this is fixed in 1.4.2 CVS. However, if someone is using an older browser (eg Netscape 4) they should be used to missing certain features on web pages.
