Prototype Slider Extension (Using JSON): Ferdinand.Slider

Wed, Dec 17, 2008

Gallery, Javascript, Scripts

Ferdinand.Slider is a Prototype extension for creating simple image slideshows.

It uses a JSON file at any location as the data source which makes it possible to integrate with Flickr or similar services easily.

The extension has several options to set:

  • duration of effects
  • duration of image transition
  • opacity
  • background
  • prev-next buttons & more.

It is also possible to add more features (like a menu) to the slider as it can be controlled from outside with commands like slider.Next(), slider.Prev().

Requirements: PrototypeJS 1.6.0.3+ & Scriptaculous 1.8.2+
Compatibility: All Major Browsers (except IE7)
