CSS Transitions!
New in 2.0, SlideShow.CSS has a method to override JS animations with CSS3 animations. Still experimental.
How to use
Simple Example
HTML
SlideShow naturally grabs all children elements of a parent as the slides.
#HTML
<div id=slideshow>
<div>Slide 1</div>
<img src=image.jpg>
<div>Slide 3</div>
</div>
CSS
Most transitions require absolutely positioned slides with top and left set to 0. SlideShow doesn't do this for you, keeping it more flexible for all types of transitions:
#CSS
#slideshow {
width: 500px;
height: 300px;
overflow: hidden;
position: relative; /* not required, slideshow will set this for you */
}
#slideshow > * {
position: absolute; /* required for most transitions */
top: 0; /* ditto */
left: 0; /* ditto */
width: 100%; /* usually required */
height: 100%; /* same */
}
JavaScript
#JS
var slideshow = new SlideShow('slideshow', {
transition: 'fadeThroughBackground',
delay: 5000,
duration: 400,
autoplay: true
});
Declarative Example
HTML
SlideShow can get all of the information it needs from the data-slideshow attribute in your HTML, and allows you to have different transitions for each slide.
#HTML
<div id=slideshow data-slideshow="transition:fade delay:4000 duration:750">
<div data-slideshow="transition:pushUp">Slide 1</div>
<img data-slideshow="transition:slideRight" src=image.jpg>
<div data-slideshow="transition:blindDown duration:1000">Slide 3</div>
</div>
JavaScript
#JS
var slideshow = new SlideShow('slideshow');
CSS Transitions
First include the SlideShow.CSS.js file. You'll then want to verify if the browser supports CSS transitions and transforms, I typically use Modernizr:
#JS
if (Modernizr.csstransitions && Modernizr.csstransforms){
SlideShow.useCSS();
}
Browsers that support transitions and transforms will use the new CSS transitions instead of JavaScript.
Controlling a SlideShow
slideshow.show('next');
slideshow.show('previous');
slideshow.show(2); // shows the third slide
slideshow.play();
Creating a navigation interface
$$('.some-elements-in-the-order-of-the-slides').each(function(item, index){
item.addEvent('click', function(){
slideshow.show(index);
});
});
Extending SlideShow with your own transitions
You can create whatever transitions you need with the SlideShow defineTransition function.
SlideShow.defineTransition('flash', function(data){
data.previous.setStyle('display', 'none');
data.next.setStyle('opacity', 0);
new Fx.Tween(data.next, {
duration: data.duration,
property: 'opacity'
}).start(1);
});
