I'm testing anythingslider and everything works (good documentation, thanks!) but I have got a small flaw that's driving me crazy for 2 days now:

When the page is loading for the 1st time or when I do a refresh with IE 8 or ÏE 7, the contents of the 1st slide appears briefly about 40px to the right and then settles where it is supposed to go. In IE8 and IE7 it does this every time, in Firefox 9 it occurs sometimes (mostly not but the 1st time it loads the page or after hitting several times the refresh button)), with Opera 11 and Safari 5 it doesn't occur at all.

So clearly it's a browser issue I guess. But still it drives me crazy.

I have set up a test/demo page with as little as code as possible (so I took the simple.html as the source and modified anythingslider to the size I want and with the 1st slide divided into a picture and text). The url is www.gcs.t15.org/test/simple.html. I've added the anythingslider.css and the html code.

Is there anyone that can point me in the right direction on how to solve this so I can sleep normally once again? I'm curious why this happens and how to prevent it..

Thanks!
