50+ Best jQuery Carousel Roundup

50+ Best jQuery Carousel Roundup
In web design, a jQuery carousel is an element giving visitors easy and visible access to several content items. It is typically a dynamic scrolling list of items in horizontal order where previous and next items are partially visible. The items, consisting of HTML content, images, videos etc. can be scrolled back and forth (with or without animated transitions). Using sliding horizontal panels, known, as Carousels and Sliders, to feature top content, is one of the strongest web design trends over the last couple of years. It is a very effective method to increase the web site usability and engage the user. The reason for this trend is mainly the arrival of jQuery that have made it almost a “walk in the park” to add a jQuery carousel or a jQuery image slider plugin to a web site.

jQuery k3dCarousel plugin I needed a “3D” carousel to rotate images.

Automatically Convert MP3 links to Audio Players with Javascript in Share Yahoo have a nice little snippet of Javascript that will convert all MP3 (and some other) links on your web page into functional flash MP3 players. I’ve sourced some JavaScript code from that will do precisely the same thing… but instead of rendering a large player on your screen, it takes the minimalistic approach and simply creates a play/stop button to the left hand side of an active MP3 link. About a week ago I sent out an email to the mailing list with an enhanced version of what I’m describing below… giving users the option of player, a download link and so on.

Traditionally, this change in image is handled via JavaScript. It’s fairly easy to write a small script that swaps out images on mouseover, but there are a number of disadvantages to this approach that have pushed many web developers toward using a CSS-only method of achieving this exact same effect. This tutorial describes exactly how to implement a pure CSS image hover effect.
