Tiny Fast Image Slider/Carousel Plugin For jQuery - xSlider

xSlider is a simple, lightweight, blazing-fast jQuery plugin used to create a pretty nice, easy-to-style carousel slider from a normal image list.

How to use it:

1. Insert your image list into the carousel container like this:

<div class="slider">
  <div class="slider-img">
    <ul class="slider-img-ul">
      <li><img src="images/slider-5.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-1.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-2.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-3.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-4.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-5.jpg"></li>
      <li><img src="images/slider-1.jpg"></li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</div>

2. Insert jQuery library and the jQuery xSlider plugin's script right before the closing body tag.

<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="xSlider.js"></script>

3. The example CSS to style the carousel slider.

.slider {
  width: 1200px;
  margin: 0 auto;
  position: relative
}

.slider:hover .slider-btn {
  color: #fff;
  text-shadow: 0 0 5px #666
}

.slider .slider-img {
  width: 12000px;
  position: relative
}

.slider .slider-img .slider-img-ul {
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  overflow: hidden
}

.slider .slider-img .slider-img-ul li { float: left }

.slider .slider-img .slider-img-ul li img {
  width: 1200px;
  height: 460px
}

4. The CSS styles for the navigation arrows & pagination bullets.

.slider .slider-dot ul {
  position: absolute;
  right: 50px;
  bottom: 30px
}

.slider .slider-dot ul li {
  cursor: pointer;
  width: 10px;
  height: 10px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  background: #ccc;
  border: 2px solid #fff;
  float: left;
  margin-left: 10px
}

.slider .slider-dot ul li.active, .slider .slider-dot ul li:hover { background: #fff }

.slider .slider-btn {
  position: absolute;
  width: 50px;
  height: 100px;
  top: 50%;
  line-height: 100px;
  text-align: center;
  color: #fff;
  font-size: 28px;
  text-decoration: none;
  color: rgba(255,255,255,0)
}

.slider .slider-btn:hover { background: rgba(125,125,125,.3) }

.slider .slider-btn.slider-btn-left {
  left: 0;
  margin-top: -50px
}

.slider .slider-btn.slider-btn-right {
  right: 0;
  margin-top: -50px
}

5. Config the carousel slider with the following options.

$('.slider').xSlider({

  // slider width
  w: 1200,

  // current slide
  current: 0,

  // animation speed
  speed: 500,

  // autoplay interval
  intervalTime: 5000

})
