If you need to add a high-quality jQuery image slider to your site, then in this article you will find a description of the necessary plugins. Even though JQuery has made working with JavaScript much easier, we still need plugins to speed up the web design process.

We can make changes to some of these plugins and create new sliders that are much more suitable for the purposes of our site.

For other sliders, you simply add titles, images, and select slide transition effects that come with the slider. All of these plugins are accompanied by detailed documentation, so adding new effects or functions to them will not be difficult. You can even change event-based triggers if you're an experienced JQuery programmer.

Latest trends such as responsive design are very important for web projects, whether you are implementing a plugin or a script. All of these elements make each of these plugins very flexible. Everything that came out in 2014 is included in this list.

Amazing Carousel

Amazing Carousel– adaptive image slider on jQuery. Supports many content management systems such as WordPress, Drupal And Joomla. Also supports Android And iOS and desktop versions of operating systems without any compatibility issues. Built-in amazing carousel templates allow you to use the slider in vertical, horizontal and circular modes.

In this tutorial, we'll create a simple responsive header page decorated with a carousel in which images slide from right to left. Our solution does not use JavaScript, the slideshow is based on CSS3 animations, which are supported in most modern browsers: Firefox 15+, Chrome 22+, Safari 5.1+, Opera 12.1+ and IE10.

Step 1 - Preparatory

We will need 4 large images (in our example the size is 1200px x 390px). For a horizontal slider, we will prepare a 4800px x 390px image in Photoshop, place all our images one after the other horizontally and save the result in a format suitable for the web (“ slider-horizontal.jpg”).

Step 2 - HTML

What we'll actually be doing is animating the background-position property for our header. The header itself has very simple markup:

The complete page code looks like this:

Step 3: Mobile CSS

We'll start defining styles for mobile devices. Let's set the basic design and then add template extensions for larger screens. The text of the lesson provides only the basic properties; the full code can be viewed in the source code:

Body ( width: 90%; min-width: 300px; max-width: 1200px; margin: 0 auto; padding-top: 1em; color: #504331 ) header ( text-align: center; position: relative; ) h1 ( font-size: 2.75em; background: white; padding: 0 10px; margin-bottom: .25em; ; left: 0; top: .5em; border-top: 1px solid #504331; border-bottom: 1px solid #504331; images/map.png) bottom center no-repeat; padding-bottom: 177px )

Step 4. Styles for Large Screens

Sections on large screens .main And .screen should be displayed differently. Section .link will be 300px wide and positioned as the right sidebar, and the section .main will remain on the left. We will also add a double line to separate the sections. We will determine screen width greater than 1024px using the @media query:

@media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) ( .content ( position: relative; ) .main ( margin-right: 320px; padding: .5em 20px .5em 0; /*add a double line */ border-right : 1px solid #504331; box-shadow: 2px 0 white, 3px 0 #504331; .links ( position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; width: 300px; text-align: right; ) )

Step 5: Responsive Header Images

Let's start working on the main part of our lesson: a responsive CSS slider in the header. First, let's make the background image responsive.

Header ( background: url(../images/slider-horizontal.jpg) 0 bottom repeat-x; background-size: 400%; padding-bottom: 32.5%; )

Using two percentage values ​​(400% for property background-size and 32.5% for the bottom margin) the header background will be displayed correctly regardless of the screen size.

Why 400%? We have 4 slides, so the display will be 1/4 of the background image in the header. That is, the background size should be 4 times wider than the header.

Why 32.5%? We position our background at the bottom of the header. The height of the background image is 390px, the width of the individual slide is 1200px, 390/1200 = 0.325, so the height is 32.5% of the width.

Step 6. Animation

We will animate the property background-position. To display the second image property background-position should matter 33.33333% bottom, third - 66.66667% bottom, and the fourth - 100% bottom. The first image is displayed when the property value is background-position equal 0 bottom or 133.33333% bottom(we set the repetitions to repeat-x).

Each image has 25% of the "fame" time. The first is displayed from 0 to 25%, the second from 25% to 50%, the third from 50% to 75%, and the last from 75% to 100%. We set the transitions so that the image starts to slide out a little early (using a value of 5%) before 25% of its rendering time has elapsed. This is what it looks like @keyframes:

@keyframes h_slide ( 0% ( background-position: 0% bottom; ) 20% ( background-position: 0% bottom; ) 25% ( background-position: 33.33333% bottom; ) 45% ( background-position: 33.33333% bottom ; ) 50% ( background-position: 66.66667% bottom; ) 70% ( background-position: 66.66667% bottom; ) 75% ( background-position: 100% bottom; ) 95% ( background-position: 100% bottom; ) 100% ( background-position: 133.33% bottom; ) )

Please note that you need to add browser prefixes: @-webkit-keyframes (for Chrome, Safari, iOS Safari, Android) and @-moz-keyframes (for Firefox 15).

Below is the complete header code. Our “h_slide” animation repeats every 24 seconds (6 seconds for each slide) in an endless loop. Time function matters ease-out, so that each slide slows down at the end of the transition.

Header ( text-align: center; position: relative; background: url(../images/slider-horizontal.jpg) 0 bottom repeat-x; background-size: 400%; padding-bottom: 32.5%; -webkit- animation: h_slide 24s ease-out infinite; -moz-animation: h_slide 24s ease-out infinite; animation: h_slide 24s ease-out infinite)

Time does not stand still and with it progress. This also affected the Internet. You can already see how the appearance of websites is changing; adaptive design is especially popular.
