[TYPO3-templavoila] FYI: Severe bug in current version of kb_tv_cont_slide

[Joerg Wagner [DigiLog]]

I just tested the new version kb_tv_cont_slide 0.4.2.
It works flawlessly now!


The test on the hidden status of sliding records (that caused the 
problem with sliding non-record fields like images) has been made 
dependent on the existence of a new parameter "table", which must only 
be used with content fields. Thus image fields are not touched and work 
again as expected.

Cheers, Jörg.
