So im looking for a good content slider....Like the one on the website: http://mizani-usa.com/

I have looked into the one used in that website. Its called bxslider. But my problem is, it seems like it comes bare boned. No buttons inside the slider with rollovers/sprites etc.

So does anyone recommend any nice, responsive slider that comes pre-made where i can just add my HTML/CSS and go?

I'm not very good with JS/AJAX so thats why im looking for something already made.

I am willing to pay for license. (Unless its like over $100)

I have tried the bxslider and also menucool slider. Both are very good sliders, im just having a hard time adding buttons/ other clickable content using sprites, also wanted to add a <form> in one of the sliders ETC.

all you have to do is look at the source code.

Code
<link href="Style%20Library/Mizani/jquery_bxslider.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="ALL">


here's the exact slider they use http://bxslider.com/

thanks but that is the first thing i did when i saw that website lol

i guess ill make my problem more specific:

I want to know how to add buttons / sprites / forms / etc Inside the slider, above the image being displayed.

Whenever i try to add divs and stuff to the HTML that comes in the slider, it just messes it up. And also if i get it to work, the content i added displays in every slide of the slide show. Like the images change, but the buttons / forms etc carry over to every slide. And i wanted different content.




Edit: but i also dont expect anyone to actually teach me it, hence why i asked if someone knows a Jquery for example that comes with such features, instead of a bare bone like slider that only has the image per say.

I'm surprised you didn't just say "google it" or some clever way of saying it. And no, I didn't read the part about bxslider.

And op,

It says "Slides can contain images, video, or any other HTML content!", so you can put whatever content you want in the slides.

LOL, apparently you are suffering from hubris and think you are better than me and yet it seems like you're worse. At least I read a post before replying to it.

not atm.

im writing from scrach in DW.


Code
<div id="slider">
<img src="images/slider/slider-imgs/img1" alt="caption1" />
<img src="images/slider/slider-imgs/img2" alt="caption2"/>
<img src="images/slider/slider-imgs/img3" alt="caption3" />

</div>



so that is the basic HTML i have for my slider so far.

This works fine, i have some text that is my caption (alt attribute)

now im having a hard time adding HTML content to the slider. If i add <div> and lets say:
Code
<ul>
<li><a href="https://facebook.com" target="_blank">Facebook</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.twitter.com" target="_blank">Twitter</a></li>
<li><a href="https://youtube.com/" target="_blank">Youtube</a></li>
</ul>


what ends up happening, is that stuff i added either gets carried over to every slide or it just completely messes up the slider in general.

id like to understand how to properly add in some buttons with sprites, maybe a <form> with a newsletter signup and boxes inside each slider with images that are not the main slider background content for example.

This is the trouble im having. And I know time is money so i dont expect anyone to teach me or look into it more deeply. So i asked if anyone know of a good Jquery that already has the HTML set up and i could just change the text / urls and good to go.

Your captions syntax is off: http://bxslider.com/examples/image-slideshow-captions

Maybe read documentation then complain here

Actually the code I posted is for menu cool slider. It was just showing an example of the basic HTML they give you in general. So humm yea what's your point tho. As I mentioned I got the caption to work in both sliders. I just wish to add other HTML content to each slide.
