JavaScript - I Need To Create Slideshow For My Web Site

hi evey one
I need a slideshow like this website .

zbiddy.com

as you can see , in the top of the page is a slide show . I just need a slideshow that change the content of each slide .

I've made my content for each slide and just need a script that change these content

I need your help very much
Thanks

Code:

var mySlideShow = document.getElementById("slideShow");

var imageArray=new Array(); 
imageArray[0]="url(images/Slide1.JPG)";       
imageArray[1]="url(images/Slide2.JPG)";
imageArray[2]="url(images/Slide3.JPG)";


var imageIndex = 0;

var leftArrow = document.getElementById("left");
var rightArrow = document.getElementById("right");

mySlideShow.style.backgroundImage = "url(images/Slide1.JPG";


function changeRight  () {

mySlideShow.style.backgroundImage = imageArray[imageIndex];
imageIndex++;


	if (imageIndex >= imageArray.length) {
	imageIndex = 1;


	
	}
	
	console.log(imageIndex);
	
}


function changeLeft  () {

mySlideShow.style.backgroundImage = imageArray[imageIndex];
imageIndex--;
console.log(imageIndex);
	
}




rightArrow.onclick = function() {
	
	changeRight();
	
	}
	
leftArrow.onclick = function() {
	
	changeLeft();
	
}

So what I am trying to do here is basically a slideshow. When I click on the left button it goes backwards and when I click the right button it goes forward. The problem arises when I click on the left arrow. It doesn't act as I want it to and I need some help. I want to remove one from the image index but imageindex--; doesn't seem to work.

Any help would be awesome.

Hey im looking to get 3 slide shows on 1 website (coded in php).

I need the slide shows to all show different images however all change images at the exact same time and have the exact same layout... how can i do this?

Hello. I was wondering where I can find something like this:



It's a slideshow. I need one for my site. Thank you.

Hello everybody!

first of all I must specify that I don't know almost anything about javascript... I'm trying to introduce a javascript slideshow (I found a free one) on our website and I have a problem:

As you can see here on the bottom of the page (http://www.comelity.com/en/pages/about-us.php), when the slideshow changes image, it puts a link over the image without any reason and if you click on the image it reloads the page... I would like to remove this link, but I'm not able... Does anyone know how to solve the problem? I can send the javascript slideshow if you want...

Thank you very much!

S.P.

I created a slideshow that displays the 5 images randomly. It is for a college project for a class I am in. Here is the HTML for the area that holds the images

Code:

<div id="imageBox">

                <!-- Random Images -->

                <img src="images/image1.jpg" width="200" height="200" alt="School Images" id="randImage" />

                        </div>

and here is the external .js file for it

Code:

window.onload = pics;

var thisPic = 0;

 

        var schoolImages = new Array("images/image1.jpg", "images/image2.jpg", "images/image3.jpg", "images/image4.jpg", "images/image5.jpg");

 

function pics(){

 

       

        thisPic = Math.floor((Math.random() * schoolImages.length));

       

        document.getElementById('randImage').src = schoolImages[thisPic];      

       

        cycle();

       

       

}

 

function cycle(){

       

        thisPic++;

       

        if(thisPic == schoolImages.length){

                thisPic = 0;

        }

       

        document.getElementById('randImage').src = schoolImages[thisPic];

       

        setTimeout(cycle, 3 * 1000);
               
     
}

I had the slideshow working completely fine... then when i finished the rest of the site and added more pages, it is now not working for me. It just sits at the original image that is loaded when they site loads. Does anyone see any issues to what is making this not work correctly now?

I worked a lot with a friend to change the code, and it's almost there. The next and last buttons still work. The Start buttons is titled 'wri' and the latest button is titled 'end'. The end button does not work. Before I added the end button, the start button worked, but now it sends you to the image alt. Any ideas on what went wrong?

Code:

window.onload = initLinks;

var myPix = new Array("comic/Issue1_Page00.gif","comic/Issue1_Page01.gif","comic/Issue1_Page02.gif");
var thisPic = 0;

function initLinks() {
	document.getElementById("prevLink").onclick = processPrevious;
	document.getElementById("nextLink").onclick = processNext;

}



function processPrevious() {
	if (thisPic == 0) {
		thisPic = myPix.length;
	}
	thisPic--;
	document.getElementById("myPicture").src = myPix[thisPic];
	return false;
}

function processNext() {
	thisPic++;
	if (thisPic == myPix.length) {
		thisPic = 0;
	}
	document.getElementById("myPicture").src = myPix[thisPic];
	return false;
}

// Load Images
if (document.images) {  

  writeImg = new Image();      
  writeImg.src = (comic/Issue1_Page03.gif);
  
}

function imgOn(imgName) {
  if (imgName == 'end') { document.strip.src=eval("writeImg.src"); document.txtwriteImg.src=eval("txtwriteOnImg.src"); return true;}

  return false;
}


// Load Images
if (document.images) {  

  writeImg = new Image();      
  writeImg.src = (comic/Issue1_Page00.gif);
  
}

function imgOn(imgName) {
  if (imgName == 'wri') { document.strip.src=eval("writeImg.src"); document.txtwriteImg.src=eval("txtwriteOnImg.src"); return true;}

  return false;
}

Hi,

I desperately need a javascript slideshow that does the following:

1--shows still images with thumbnails
2--can be played manually or automatically
3--can embed youtube videos
4--audio can accompany slideshows
5--powered by javascript, not Flash so it shows up on iPad

Does anyone know where I can get such a slideshow? Thanks

Solved

I found the code for how to create a basic slideshow on javascript kit. It tells you the code for 3 images. I am adding more images to my slide show, but when I go to preview it, it loops through the first 3 pictures only. Is there something else I need to change in order to get it to loop through all my pictures?

Here is the code I got from the site:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var image1=new Image()
image1.src="firstcar.gif"
var image2=new Image()
image2.src="secondcar"
var image3=new Image()
image3.src="thirdcar.gif"
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<img src="firstcar.gif" name="slide" width="100" height="56" />
<script>
<!--
//variable that will increment through the images
var step=1
function slideit(){
//if browser does not support the image object, exit.
if (!document.images)
return
document.images.slide.src=eval("image"+step+".src")
if (step<3)
step++
else
step=1
//call function "slideit()" every 2.5 seconds
setTimeout("slideit()",2500)
}
slideit()
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>

My code looks like this:

var image20=new Image()

//-->
</script>

slideit()

This is just the code for the slideshow, not any of the code from the rest of my website. It does the same thing when I test it either the code only or the whole webpage.

If I am missing something in the steps, please let me know.
Thanks

I have been working on a picture slideshow w/ a caption, and (due to being an extreme amateur) I cannot get it to work just right. I have the slideshow going, but I can't get the caption to stay on the right side of the photo, while keeping the layout fluid. I would also love to add a pause, forward, and back button, and I have tried several free slideshow generators but either they don't work or they don't produce what I'm after.

Here is my code so far.

Javascript:

var BaseDirectory = 'http://s200.photobucket.com/albums/aa216/Jilldear/';

var intervalAction;

function ShowSlide(slide_num) {
  document.getElementById('mypic').src = BaseDirectory+ImgArray[slide_num][0];
  document.getElementById('mypic').alt = ImgArray[slide_num][1];
  document.getElementById('Caption').innerHTML = ImgArray[slide_num][1];
}

function slideshow() {
  ImgPtr++;
  ImgPtr = ImgPtr % ImgArray.length;

  ShowSlide(ImgPtr);
}
onload = function() {
  slideshow();
  intervalAction = setInterval("slideshow()",5000);
}
</script>

HTML:

Code:

<div style="height:300px;width:398px;">
<div id="divCaption">
<div style="position:absolute; z-index:30; left:-999;" id="Caption"> </div>
<img src="" alt="" border="1" id="mypic" name="mypic" alt="" height="300" width="398">
</div><br />
</div>

I would LOVE for the finished slideshow to look somewhat like the one on this website: http://www.equisearch.com/ but I know this is a lot to ask

Thanks so much in advance!!!

Hello All,

I found lightbox to be very useful for certain things, however I was hoping someone could help me out with the code or point me to a tutorial that could do what I am looking for.

Similar to lightbox (http://lokeshdhakar.com/projects/lightbox2/) how you can click on an image to open a separate window to display a slideshow, however with lightbox you need to display all images that are included in the slideshow, i.e. thumbnails.

I was hoping to find a way to do something similar but without having to display all the images as thumbnails. I want to display only one picture which the user can click on that will open a new window and display a slideshow with multiple images.

If this possible? Can someone help me out with this?

Any tips or tricks or tutorials that can be shared with me I would greatly greatly appreciate it.

Many thanks,
bg

Hello all!

I am trying to make a slideshow with the javascript code found here http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/.../jsslide.shtml

Thanks
