I think C5 could use a block that has a slider like on this page.

I'd be willing to try to make this for C5 if someone would be willing to guide me... I'm a newbie...
need to think of a better name than sliders though, cause that had me think of draggable sliders on a form or something. anyone got any suggestions?
on the list already
Looks like that could easily be made in Flash or Swish....could even be done in a javascript.
Which would you think would be the best way to implement that sort of functionality.

what's swish?
Swish is the poor mans Flash. To develop with it, you only can use a pc (biggest draw back). Otherwise, it does almost everything that Flash does.

I would think Jquery is the best option. We have these in the works on some of our sites.
Cool Nolmsheid, do you have an example we could see?

The one posted above looks like a JS/JQuery implementation.
don't really see a reason for using anything besides javascript for something like this... especially consider how fast browsers are now and how flexible jquery is.
I am still learning it. I am old school in a lot of ways and trying to update a lot of my old ways.
But that is what I was figuring too and you don't need any software except a graphics program and text editor.

I guess this sliding panel effect is referred to as Coda Sliders now:

the coda slider is a bit different but its close to the same thing. the code slider is based off of panics coda software

that'd be another cool ad on!!

oh, I see what you mean. the first example you gave acts sorta like throwing new cards on a deck. I think I like the coda effect better if I had to pick one of the two.
Either way I'd be fine with it. maybe there could be a option of tabs at the top to toggle them on and off... just and Idea.
if someone where to guide me in doing blocks I'd love to learn how!! i realize this maybe a nuisance but I would greatly appreciate learning!

there is a link to some cool joomla extensions that I would love to see in the marketplace and I would love to be able to C5 them!
This type of eye candy would be great for C5... Just an Idea!
I like the top panel personally!

jquery has a built in way of doing this and its one of several blocks on our todo list. not sure when its gonna get done, but yes - seems like a great idea.
Those yootheme tools posted above could all be done in concrete5. They are all just Jquery style implementations.
Anyone interested in porting those all over would be great. Although I am not a fan of all of those tools. :-) Some of them are great.

To learn how to work with blocks, just use the other ones as examples. Start with a simple one like the content block.
I'm experimenting with making this coda block... I download the jquery plugin for it and I have all the javascript in the folder and the auto.js(I don't know what that is) and the add.php (I'm assuming i need that) and a db.xml and a edit.php and a view.php
wish me luck everyone if I have a problem can I contact someone for help?

well, the coda might be a bit difficult one to attempt as your first block, so good luck. auto.js is automatically included with the popup/dialog box when the block is being added or edited (I'd personally rather this was just one file so as to prevent code duplication, but you can have them both include the same form if you'd like, as is done on the form block). You need both an add.php and an edit.php for adding and editing the block. The view.php is the display of the block, once it's inserted into a page.
The error message you're getting is because it can't find the controller class for that block. In your controller.php file, the main class there should be class SliderBlockController{}, provided that it's in a folder called slider_block.
It will only create a database table for it during the block's installation if there is a db.xml file there. look at the other db.xml files as example of how this works.

I'm goin to get this somehow hopefully then maybe I can sell if out of the marketplace for some money for all my hard work ;) or hard learning
maybe I should work on a more simple one first... any ideas?! on a good starting point?
How would I go about making the form_setup_html.php?

I'd like to see this slider made into a block. I like it's ease of use and configurations. Check it out:

those would be sweet!
Wow, I love this. A block that does all the things the YOOcarousel does would be great. Just wish I had the technical know-how to do it!!
Has there been any update on this? I would like a block that does something like this page -http://icondock.com/

Hey C5 fellow mates!
I would like to include slider in one of my pages, like on this site: (http://promark.com/)with five slides with picture on the left side and text on right side including option for making link from this text.
Is something like this available somewhere? I am not so much in to programming that's why I am asking for a little help here.
Tnx.
