Looking for a decent jquery slider that features methods to trigger sliding via code

Any recommendations for开发者_开发技巧 a decent query slider that allows you to call functions via code to allow you to navigate to panels. i.e. $('#mySlider').gotoPanel(3);

The Galleria jQuery plugin can do this. Use .show(index).

Shows the image specified as index. You can call this method anytime and the image will be placed in a transition queue.

jCarousel also supports this via the .scroll(index) method. Use .data('jcarousel') to access the instance directly:

$("#mycarousel").data('jcarousel').scroll(10);

I am a big fan of jquery cycle for its flexibility and use of use. Per your question, $('#div').cycle(3); goes to slide 2.

Take a look a jquery tools scrollable and methode seekTo(index, speed)
