    Hi DPers!

    I'm looking for a script that creates a slideshow much like the ones on:
    http://www.dell.ca/ (the first object under the menu bar)
    &
    http://wwf.ca/

    Please let me know if you know of any! Thanks!

    You can also check out the YUI carousel. There are also a number of Jquery ones out there.

    thanks for posting this
    I would like to ask people if it is better to be using a jquery gallery or flash gallery?
    JQuery is based on javascript so it would turn out bad if someone didn't have java enabled
    but in the same way, you need adobe flash player installed to view flash

    I found a carousel comparative here: www. vivalogo. com/vl-resources/javascript-slideshows-sliders-carousels.htm

    A javascript carousel, always it's based in actual HTML code (A, IMG...) and not displayed by the javascript itself, is always better than flash for search engine indexation purposes. And of course there is still people out there without the flash plugin.

    Thanks @javier.garcia.esteban and @grandpa
    I also thought along the lines of that, I'd agree that most browsers support js (more like all) and not everyone would have flash player
