Hi Nigel,

The jquery cycle plugin is a very adaptable image slider. You could try changing your current code to something like this demo:


http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/pager2.html


The add-on is very versatile, allowing you to choose various image swapping effects, set how long an image is displayed for, etc. It also allows you to slide between html content if you require.

Thanks
Greg Thomas

Hi, Greg.

I've been trying to follow the link you posted for a few days, but the site seems to be down. Do you know of any other reference points for the jquery cycle plugin, please? I've tried Googling it, but I can't find an easy-to-understand site that has the plugin download and a recipe for implementing it.

Cheers,
Nigel Gordijk

This is the responsive version
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/

This is the base version.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/

I'm using the responsive version all the time now, even when not in a responsive environment - it's simple and light-weight.

Hi Nigel,

It looks as if the jquery cycle page is up and running again now. I've just added a post that might be helpful to you:

If you follow this tutorial and adapt the foreach loop and html in the code section you should be able to get it working with jquery cycle.

Thanks!

Greg
