[Solved] Looking for this…

  • Hello everyone,

    I'm looking for a simple / bare bones jQuery image slider and could use some suggestions. I don't need all the bells and whistles that are packaged with most plugins…but I do have a few specific requirements…

    1.) Hardware accelerated transitions 2.) Touch capabilities for mobile devices 3.) Horizontal or Vertical sliding 4.) Next/Prev navigation buttons

    Below is a list of sliders I've looked into thus far…I would appreciate any recommendations. Thank You!

    Nivo Slider, iOS Slider, Anything Slider, BX slider, Slides.js,

  • I was going to mention Slides.js but I see you already have it there!

    Hey thanks for the suggestion. Think I may have found what I need. I came across the Unslider this morning and it seems to fit the bill. I'm having issues though trying to make it 100% width. Essentially I want to keep the slides a fixed size, but have them slide the full width of the browser. I attempted adjusting the body to 100%, but that didn't seem to do the trick. Would you have an idea on how this can be accomplished?

    Here is the example: http://unslider.com

    EDIT: i posted a direct link to the demo considering it's so simple. Figured firebug/dev tools can be used.

    Thank you
