Power Slider Not Sliding

Permalink Browser Info Environment
The power slider will not "slide", and if I can get it to slide than either the links for the images don't work OR my autonav dropdown is hidden by the slider. I tried clearing the cache. The only thing that "works" to fix one of the problems is deleting the block entirely and starting a new one, which only creates one of the other problems I mentioned.

Did the block get edited for some reason? It's not writing out a critical piece of code..

I don't know any code and I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to edit the block, so as far as I know the block has not been edited. What do you suggest I do?

Got this issue too in Chrome, Safari and Firefox. ie8 is fine.
Something to do with z-index?

It does have to do with the z-index, but it's usually fine if you don't have a ton of slides.

I stick to 5 or less. Why? because they're not effective if you have a lot of them. The goal of the power slider is to lead your site visitors through to the important parts of your website. Those are the parts that help your visitors meet your business goals (buy a product, contact you, fill out a form..etc..). If you overload them with slides, they won't stick around, and they're less meaningful.

I'll probably release an update that fixes this issues, but in the meantime, consider the above.

Okay, I cut it down to 5 images and it's working fine. Thanks for your help!

Great advice, cut to 5 and all is fine.
Cheers for prompt response.

I just had this problem, and I found out that 7 slides is the magic number. Anything after this and it seems the z-index goes crazy.
