Well i have worked it out as far as fixing all the errors, so my sites are HTML passable. It was after I updated to 5 that the errors happened. But now that I have Pro and layers I have an easier time of it. BUT
BUT the carousel is still not working one only one page. IT is a mystery.
On that page, the Action appears to have hiccupped and not attached
valid links to the JavaScript source files. The source calls are
there, but they are empty:
I have never seen this particular bug here. Could you please zip your
file and send it to me using Senduit? Also, try downloading and
installing the newest version of the Carousel action.

Thanks, that was enough. I can’t duplicate the problem here, using
Freeway 5. The page publishes correctly with the proper script
references in place.
One thing you could try, and this is just good general advice when
you see problems that are impossible to explain, is to empty out your
local publish folder or designate a new one. Let Freeway have a clean
whack at generating the entire site.
Find the folder (set in Document Setup) where Freeway is publishing
your site on your hard drive. In the finder, open that folder, delete
everything inside it, and empty the Trash.
Back in Freeway, publish again. Every single page and resource will
publish, and at the end of it, you will have a completely clean new
site. Upload and test again.

Hello Walter
Thx for the help. It is strange isn’t. I thought it was me.
Ok do I send my whole website file to you?

I have the newest version. I made sure I did a few weeks ago,
No, it means that the problem is local to your computer, since I get
correct results here. Now I am publishing into a completely empty
folder, and I also don’t have any of the real files here, only the
versions cached within your Freeway document, so perhaps you have a
corrupted image on your computer that is actually at the root of the
problem.
Another thing that just occurred to me is perhaps you have not
installed the Action in the correct support folder. If you were using
Freeway 4, and then moved over to Freeway 5 with the same document,
then you might be using a cached version of the Action in Freeway 5.
Freeway stashes a copy of every Action applied within your document
in the document itself, as a sort of last resort for when you share
documents with another Freeway user.
Un-zip the Action and drag it over the top of your Freeway 5 icon in
your Dock while Freeway is running. You should see an alert dialog.
If the text of that dialog simply says something like “You are about
to install Actions”, then the real problem is that you had not
installed this Action in Freeway 5. If the dialog says “You are about
to install Actions that replace existing Actions”, then that wasn’t
the problem, but no harm doing this in any case. Go ahead and let it
replace the Action.
I want you to look at the ‘Site folder’ setting in that dialog.
(Right smack in the middle of the Document tab of the Document Setup
dialog.) If you click on Select…, then a standard file dialog will
open, and you can navigate to that folder (to see where it is), or
designate a new empty folder where you would like the local files to
publish.

More or less anything you can draw in Freeway can be part of a
Carousel. The basic rule is to make all of the panes exactly the same
size. Draw an HTML box, then while it’s still selected, draw your
additional content over the top of it. Click once on the first box
before you draw each additional element. Then duplicate the first box,
and change the content so you have your other panes exactly the same
as the first. Apply Carousel to the first one, and put it where you
want the effect to appear on your page. Apply Carousel Pane to all of
the other panes, and you can put them anywhere you like, even on the
pasteboard.

One thing you cannot put in a Carousel is Flash. Some browsers, and
some versions of the Flash plug-in, do not get along with this layout
technique (using overflow:hidden in CSS to mask a larger element). The
Flash tends to “peek out” of the page, as if the hidden part was still
visible.
