The sliding images (if I’m reading the source code correctly) is done with a Jquery “Easy Slider 1.7”.
Can something similar be done in FW? I have fairly limited coding capabilities.
I’ve made a few of these…will have to revisit it. Will a carousel start sliding automatically?..I will have to mess around a bit more with them. And yes, Walter did make it easy…Thanks!
There’s an auto-scroll option, which works like this: You set a time
period in seconds, and if the user does not interact with any of the
controls (buttons or tabs) the carousel will automatically scroll to
the next option each time that period elapses. Once the user presses
any of the controls, the auto-scroll behavior stops. There’s a
function in Glider.js to start it up again, but I haven’t figured out
how it works or how to map it to the FW interface.

Glad you found a solution Rich. It’s too bad the carousel can’t do different effects, rather than just left or right, like most of the JQuery stuff can do. Perhaps you’ll get adventurous and take a look at that plug-in from my JQuery screencast.
