Hi,
I would like to create an image scroller on one of our CMS homepages.I have found the following article which has a jQuery for a scroller;
http://cssglobe.com/jquery-plugin-easy-image-or-content-slider/
I have created a UI script for the jQuery code. I have then started to create the script with my images to try to set them to scroll.
Here is my script so far;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<j:jelly trim="false" xmlns:j="jelly:core" xmlns:g="glide" xmlns:j2="null" xmlns:g2="null">
<g:include_script src="easySlider.1.7.js"/>
<div id="slider">
<ul>
<li> <img src="nominate_star_banner.jpgx"/></li>
<li> <img src="open_house_banner.jpgx"/></li>
</ul>
</div>
</j:jelly>
I am struggling with the next steps after adding the <div> code. What do I need to do to get this working?
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Emma

Hi,
I have added the UI Script and the Dynamic Content Block script.
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi Emma,
This is a jquery plugin and to use this you first need to include jquery in your ui page.
Try to include this line before calling your UI Script
<g:requires name="scripts/lib/jquery_includes.js"/> |
Hope this helps.
