‹‹ cycle homejQuery Cycle Plugin - Frequently Asked Questions

What happened to the plugin file that used to be at http://cloud.github.com/downloads/malsup...
The old download links on github are no longer valid (github is no longer supporting the "downloads" feature).

Please use this link instead:
http://malsup.github.io/jquery.cycle.all.js

Or copy the plugin file to your local server and serve from there.

Is there a minified version of the plugin available?
Yes: http://malsup.github.io/min/jquery.cycle.all.min.js
How do I get support for the Cycle Plugin?
Please post questions to the jQuery Forum: http://forum.jquery.com.
What versions of jQuery is the Cycle Plugin compatible with?
The Cycle Plugin is supported on jQuery v1.7.1 and later.
Does the Cycle Plugin have any dependencies on other plugins?
No, however it can leverage other plugins that are installed, such as the Easing Plugin.
What options are available?
Supported options can be found on the options page.
Why do all my images (slides) display briefly when the page loads?
When a web page depends on JavaScript for DOM manipulation or styling, you may see a "flash of unstyle content" because the browser may render elements before the DOM is fully loaded and before the DOMContentLoaded event is fired. Karl Swedberg wrote a nice article on this problem and how to avoid it. Karl talks about a general purpose solution, but for Cycle the solution is much simpler: just hide all but your first slideshow image using CSS.

For example:

#slideshow img { display: none }
#slideshow img.first { display: block }
...

<div id="slideshow">
	<img src="image1.jpg" width="200" height="200" class="first" />
	<img src="image2.jpg" width="200" height="200" />
	<img src="image3.jpg" width="200" height="200" />
</div>
