Advanced Slider is a jQuery plugin that allows you to easily create XML -driven sliders, which are much easier to setup and maintain than sliders that use HTML markup. However, you also have the option to use HTML instead of XML . The plugin also provides an easy to use API which will allow to further enhance the functionality of the slider and make it possible to integrate it into your own application. Please take a look at the list of features below.

Features

• XML support which makes this slider very easy to setup and maintain
• 100+ possible transition effects
• optional thumbnail images for previewing
• define a different transition effect for each slide
• fully customizable (preloaders, arrows etc.)
• multiple sliders on the same page
• add captions with simple text or HTML text
• add a link to each slide
• auto slideshow mode supported
• shuffled images
• public methods which allow you to control the slider using outside input (e.g. gotoSlide(3), nextSlide(), previousSlide(), getSlideAt(2) etc.)
• callback functions

If you have any questions or need assistance integrating the slider, please feel free to ask; I will gladly help you. Also, if you like this script, please take a moment to rate it
