My slideshow comes up blank  if IE8 is not in compatibility mode. if I switch to compatibility mode its fine. Other browsers are fine. The only way I can get slideshow mode to show the images is if I remove the doctype from the page and leave no doctype (quirks mode)...

 

Other modes like gridshow and classic work fine both ways. I currently have the gallery in a page with with no doctype defined and I'm viewing it through an iframe until I can get this resolved.
