BgSlide is a JavaScript library which turns the background of a webpage into a slideshow, displaying random images with nice transition effects.
Written using the usual Prototype + Scriptaculous combo.
It is currently active on this site, unless I removed it due to bugs. Have a look at the source code of the demo page for implementation details. More documentation coming soon™.
Tested and works on: Firefox (2.0.0.6), Internet Explorer (7.0.600.16512) and Safari (3.0.522.11.3)
Latest Version
v0.03, released on 21/08/2007
Coming Soon™
I plan to make this into a more modular JavaScript class with multiple slideshow instance support. Because this is originally designed for this website’s background effects, the features are a bit limited right now.
