Slideshow on home page in my new web site will not work in Firefox on my machine but works in Safari and on external machines.
The slideshow starts automatically on wife's machine and mine with Safari but not Firefox (don't know about other machines with Firefox) Concerned that clients with Firefox may not be able to see slideshow on my home page.

Make sure that you do not block JavaScript
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to make sure to get the latest versions of all files.
- Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
- Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

It cured itself by the next afternoon. I did not take any of the steps in the email as it had cured itself. I wondered if it was the 24 to 48 to fully shift a web site from server to another server.
Items stored in the cache may have expired and made Firefox retrieve new data from the server.
If you make changes to the code or files on your own website or suspect that some one else did on their website then always first try to reload the page and bypass the cache like I wrote above to refresh al files.
In case of some media files you may need to clear the cache to make it work.
