Nice simple slider for any HTML content

Nice simple slider. I’ve used it for fancy text, text mixed with images and images with links. All worked in the end. I had quite a bit of HTML and it accepted it all.

I found that the mix of text and images can be tricky – I had to put a few lines of hidden dots (e.g. <p style="color:white;">.</p>) to reserve enough vertical space – images mixed with a small amount of text don’t seem to reserve any vertical space. Another technique I used was framing my slides in a div (e.g. <div style="height:120px;"> bla bla </div>) to get better control of the height.

Once thing I could not figure out is the order of presentation of the slides. It seems to be based on the order you add the slides. This makes it tricky (or at least tedious) to control the order of your slides.

All in all, a pretty good slider that works.
