DHTML Panorama

Came across this site today, when someone said that something like the scrolling panoramic image thingy can’t be done without resorting to Flash or Java. I protested, claiming that it can certainly be done using just plain HTML, CSS and JavaScript, so I worked all evening to get a demonstration running.

Here is the result.

    Can it load multiple images from an array within the script, pan image one from the array once it reaches the end of image one fade to image two from the array. Keep doing this until the array is complete and reload the page so I so I can bring up next tour?

    I ask because your Viewer system run smoother than the Java Applet I am using an this is what it currently does, I do anything to get rid of Java.

    In its current incarnation it’s just a plain single-image scroller, nothing more. Proof of concept, so to say. But I’m sure that, with a little time and determination, it could certainly be expanded to do what you want to — Happy hacking! ;)

    Wow! Now that’s fascinating. I take it I can use it if I want to, right? After all that’s what the Internet is built upon …

    Nice peace of work, keep it up!

    Sure, take it and use it. I wouldn’t complain if some attribution were included, but as I’m too lazy to put this under some license, it’s basically in the public domain.
