Thanks guys. I’ll work on it and post results.

I’m working with the Weaver II Pro template, by the way. Meteor Slides is a great plugin apart from the apparent complications of substituting the slideshow for the header image. Am I missing something obvious?

No, I want the slide show to replace the header image in its normal position below any header widgets (or the title and tagline if visible). In this case it’s appearing above everything. I also can’t get the slide show to replace the header image on a per-page basis, although I’ve tried all the suggested methods. Shouldn’t there be a simple way to substitute the correctly sized slide show for the header image?

The only way I found to solve this problem was:
1. style the title in the interface as though it responded to html — which it does in the preview but not in a browser — and update;
2. take a snapshot of the resulting preview and upload it to the media library;
3. make the new image the header background image;
4. remove previous styling from the title and update;
5. add to the title and tag css: display:none, so it’s still SEO-friendly.
See the result at pr-int-sp-ex.com, with the word “THE” on its own line in caps at a smaller size, and the initial caps of the words on the larger second line in red.

I’m not aware that you can style an element in css to display on two lines breaking between specific words, with initial caps in red. This sort of detail would normally have to be specified in the html. Please explain . . . And does anyone know why the html for the header is not accessible?

Yes, I should have said that this is a child theme based on Twenty Eleven. But the question still stands.
