I understand that there are many methods to creating a slideshow on a website, but that isn’t my question.
What I really want to know is what is the most mainstream method of creating a slideshow on a website.
What do you recommend?
So far I’ve seen Jquery, Javascript, CSS & DHTML, and Flash. The first thing that comes to mind for me is flash, then second Javascript.
What are your thoughts?
Personally, I would go for jQuery over Flash. It’s likely that a jQuery implementation will be far more lightweight than Flash, and jQuery provides such a rich set of effects it makes it easy to create great-looking slideshows.
Plus, there are literally hundreds of existing jQuery implementations around on the web, so you can just find one that provides all the features you require and drop it in to your site.
