I am a novice jQuery user and i need some help in implementing a slideshow for a website. The images are to be changed automatically within a specific interval (i know about setInterval). I tried to use this plugin CrossSlide.
However, the images that need to be displayed are actually pulled from a database and they vary from listing to listing. This plugin needs the images to be given as arguments beforehand and this is not possible.
Also, image thumbnails should be displayed so when the user clicks on one, that image will be loaded and the slideshow should continue from that image. If i use clearInterval, i have to start the show from beginning. I am preferring this plugin because it has a Pause() and Resume() extension.
Try the jquery cycle plugin and it has all the features you need and you can try it out from here
