Slideshow 2 is an open source Mootools slideshow class for streaming and animating the presentation of images.

Mootools Slideshow Script

This Mootools slideshow offers impressive features with a great usability like calling it with 1 line of code:

new Slideshow('show', ['1.jpg', '2.jpg', '3.jpg'], { controller: true, hu: ‘images/’ });

When you mouse-over the images a slide-controller appears which lets you control the images. And, there are various transition effects that can be configured.

  • Dynamic resizing - Slideshow can accommodate any size presentation.
  • Thumbnails - intelligent, auto-scrolling, tracking, etc.
  • Full-featured controller - completely style-able with CSS.
  • Animated captions - plain text or formatted with HTML.
  • Fully accessible - Slideshow can be controlled with access keys.
