Hi all

I am trying to add a slide show into a web page for a customer using dreamweaver CS3

 

Sorry - I code my sites from scratch by hand (only a beginner) and have no experience of dreamweaver or any other package, come to that.

 

However, my own site has a slide show using Jon's smoothgallery 2.0 - free and open source (google for it). This is very easy to use though support is slow if you need help in their forum.

 

Check out my website Sol Classic Car Club. If this is the sort of thing you want to use - post back and I will "tell all". Be aware, though, that the site is up just the last couple of days and may be rough around the edges. In fact I am posting elsewhere for help with ie7 and ie8 that don't seem to like some parts of the site. But anyway, the slide show on the home page should be working OK.

 

See ya later.

Ps - Mine is the yellow Porsche in the slideshow!!

Using an animated gif would probably increase page loading times a lot.

 

Use a Javascript framework like jQuery - there are also many plugins that will quickly get you the effect you want.
