Mootools Slideshow: Slideshow 2
2
Jul
Slideshow 2 is an open source Mootools slideshow class for streaming and animating the presentation of images.
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.
Features of Slideshow 2:
- 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.
- Automagic slideshows – create slideshows from existing HTML images.
- Varied hyperlinking options – allows for mashups with Lightbox, Slimbox, etc.
- CSS slide transitions – designed in stylesheets, not javascript, allow for an infinite combination of effects (plus support for all Robert Penner transitions).
- Unobtrusive and degradable – Slideshow even functions with Javascript turned off!
Several different implementations can be found at Slideshow 2 website.

Pretty nice. I prefer the JQuery slideshow though, seems to run much smoother. Although, if you have Mootools installed, couldn’t hurt to give this a try. Good find.
