Hi,
I have been looking for the above action but cannot find it even on Walters site. Could someone point it out to me please.

Many thanks

Have a look on ActionsForge. That’s where the great majority of all
Actions live – and I’m working on rounding up the rest!

Hi Walter,

Thank you for your reply, but can this be used to show my many youtube movies, if it can, do you know of a site that would show me how it would look.

You can put anything you want in the Carousel, but I also recommend
you test with a wide range of browsers. YouTube videos are expressed
as Flash movies, and some browsers (and some versions of Flash) do not
properly hide flash content that is outside of an Overflow:Hidden
container. Since Carousel (and every other implementation of this idea
that I know of) relies on the HTML Overflow property to hide the off-
stage content, you may need to re-think your entire presentation mode
if you find that the browsers that visit your site are the ones that
see the Flash content “peeking through” the blank parts of the page.

My demo page does not feature any Flash, but it does show how the
basic effect will look. Carousel in Freeway

Hi Walter,

I will give it a try in creation terms, then test it out and see where I get to.

Another of Walter’s actions that you might want to consider for this is ScriptyLightbox ScriptyLightbox - ActionsForge

That’s possibly less likely to be affected by the Flash content, since
it’s using display:none to hide the off-stage content rather than
overflow:hidden. That is a MUCH larger hammer to hit Flash with.
