I've encountered an issue with my Joomla website where my carousel images are disappearing. I have a code snippet from W3 Schools for an automatic banner that works perfectly fine when opened in a browser using Notepad++, but when inserted into a custom module on Joomla, the images turn white and do not display. Strangely enough, I can still switch between them and the CSS for the slider and arrows appear to be functioning correctly. Here is the code I have implemented:
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<style>
* {box-sizing: border-box;}
body {font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;}
.mySlides {display: none;}
img {vertical-align: middle;}
/* Slideshow container */
.slideshow-container {
max-width: 1000px;
position: relative;
margin: auto;
}
/* Caption text */
.text {
color: #f2f2f2;
font-size: 15px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 8px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
/* Number text (1/3 etc) */
.numbertext {
color: #f2f2f2;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
/* The dots/bullets/indicators */
.dot {
height: 15px;
width: 15px;
margin: 0 2px;
background-color: #bbb;
border-radius: 50%;
display: inline-block;
transition: background-color 0.6s ease;
}
.active {
background-color: #717171;
}
/* Fading animation */
.fade {
-webkit-animation-name: fade;
-webkit-animation-duration: 1.5s;
animation-name: fade;
animation-duration: 1.5s;
}
@-webkit-keyframes fade {
from {opacity: .4}
to {opacity: 1}
}
@keyframes fade {
from {opacity: .4}
to {opacity: 1}
}
/* On smaller screens, decrease text size */
@media only screen and (max-width: 300px) {
.text {font-size: 11px}
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h2>Automatic Slideshow</h2>

<script>
var slideIndex = 0;
showSlides();
function showSlides() {
var i;
var slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
var dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");
for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
slides[i].style.display = "none";
}
slideIndex++;
if (slideIndex > slides.length) {slideIndex = 1}
for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active",
"");
}
slides[slideIndex-1].style.display = "block";
dots[slideIndex-1].className += " active";
setTimeout(showSlides, 6000); // Change image every 6 seconds
}
