    I have a xml data source linked to an xml file with contents for 8 images. The rotator always stops at the 2nd last image.
    My setting are:

    Type: AutoAdvance
    Direction: Left
    FrameDuration= 8000
    and ScrollDuration=500

                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# XPath("ImageUrl") %>'  ToolTip='<%# XPath("AlternateText") %>'/>
                                </ItemTemplate>

    XML File:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <Ads>
    <ad>
        <ImageUrl>~/Images/ad1.gif</ImageUrl>
        <AlternateText>1st Ad</AlternateText>
        <Keyword>1st Ad</Keyword>    
      </ad>
      <ad>
        <ImageUrl>~/Images/ad2.gif</ImageUrl>
        <AlternateText>2nd Ad</AlternateText>
        <Keyword>2nd Ad</Keyword>
        <Impressions>50</Impressions>
      </ad>
    ....
    ....
    ...
    </Ads>

    Please help!

    Thanks,
    Sayak

    Hi Sayak,

    I was not able to reproduce the problem by using your setup. Here is the test setup that I used:

    Content of XML file :

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
    <Ads> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image1.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>1st Ad</AlternateText> 
          <Keyword>1st Ad</Keyword> 
       </ad> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image2.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>2nd Ad</AlternateText> 
          <Keyword>2nd Ad</Keyword> 
          <Impressions>50</Impressions> 
       </ad> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image3.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>1st Ad</AlternateText> 
          <Keyword>1st Ad</Keyword> 
       </ad> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image4.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>2nd Ad</AlternateText> 
          <Keyword>2nd Ad</Keyword> 
          <Impressions>50</Impressions> 
       </ad> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image5.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>1st Ad</AlternateText> 
          <Keyword>1st Ad</Keyword> 
       </ad> 
       <ad> 
          <ImageUrl>~/Images/image6.jpg</ImageUrl> 
          <AlternateText>2nd Ad</AlternateText>

          <Keyword>1st Ad</Keyword> 
       </ad>

             runat="server"> 
             <ItemTemplate> 
                <asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" ImageUrl='<%# XPath("ImageUrl") %>' AlternateText="IMAGE" 
                   ToolTip='<%# XPath("AlternateText") %>' /> 
             </ItemTemplate> 
          </telerik:RadRotator> 
          <asp:XmlDataSource ID="XmlDataSource1" runat="server" DataFile="XMLFile.xml"></asp:XmlDataSource> 
          <div> 
          </div> 
       </form> 
    </body> 
    </html> 


    You can examine the code above and if you still cannot get the RadRotator control to work properly please open a support ticket and send us a simple project that reproduce the problem. We will do our best to help.
