Drop-in Slideshow Script II (hyperlinked)

Author: Dynamic Drive

Description: Version II of the original, slimmer Drop-in slideshow, this one hyperlinks each image, so you can associate a unique URL with each slide. A classic effect that works in both IE4+ and NS6+, with a regular hyperlinked slideshow appearing for other browsers.

Demo: (you can click on each image)

Directions

Simply add the below where you wish the slideshow to appear:

There are a few variables you'll need to define. Please refer to documentation inside the script.

Developer's Note

The "drop-in" effect for this script is archived by setting the outermost DIV to overflow:hidden (supported by both IE4+ and NS6+). This CSS attribute causes contained content that venture outside the DIV to be clipped, allowing for the illusion of content appearing from an "edge".
