I would like to use the carousel, but each slide is a different height. i.e. Slide 1 is a text block 500px high and the 2nd is 1000px high. Can this work? When I try, half the 2nd text box is missing as it is outside the boundaries of the Carousel.

No. The carousel must be the height of its tallest member. The reason for this is quite simple: in order for the effect to work, the outermost box is set to overflow:hidden, so it clips off the rest of the “filmstrip” of additional content and only shows you one pane at a time. What you can do is put your over-long text inside a nested HTML box, and set that box to overflow:auto. This will create a scroll bar in the middle of your screen, but it’s one way to get the layout you want without clipping off part of your content.

Darn
I need to think of something else, the client won’t like the in browser scrolling. The hide/show layer option won’t work either because the browser snaps to the top of the screen each time a tab is clicked.
Is there another show / hide technique that could work that you know of?
Thanks Walter
