Create a slideshow in Dreamweaver

Ever wanted to add a cool looking slide show in Dreamweaver? You know, the type where images fade out and fade in replacing each other. Most people think you need to be a web design expert to create a slide show like this. The truth is dreamweaver makes it real simple.

I’ve a made a short video (around 5 min long) showing you exactly how to create one.

Here it is:

I hope you found it useful. Leave a comment and let me know what you thought about it or let me know what other tutorials you’d like to see. Just like the comment link below…

** Sadly this feature has been removed in Dreamweaver CS4 so will only work with Dreamweaver CS3

    The tutorials that i have viewed are great and are easy to follow.

  2. Vicki Says:

    I’ve already seen this video on YouTube a while back. Unfortunately, this does not work for DW CS4. Any suggestions on how to go about this in CS4?

  3. Debra Says:

    I can not see anything. The video does not show up? Any sugesstions?

  4. Tom Says:

    These tutorials are fantastic!
    However I was a bit disappointed that this particular one didn’t work with DW CS4.

  5. Bob Says:

    Used this tutorial with DW CS3 and it worked great or so I thought. I have a problem where every once in a while the picture seems to zoom to either the upper left or right corner. As the slideshow plays it corrects itself but then sometimes another picture would do the same thing. If I used the player in DW it works all the time.

    Not sure how to correct this. Any idea’s?

    I have a wierd problem. When I try to save the imageviewer in the beginning.. it sais that “image viewer flash element can not be found”. So then I can’t do anything.. I’m working in CS3. What do I need to do?

    Hi, I saw this video on youtube. Really good and easy to setup. I’m having a problem though where the images won’t fit to the exact size of the flash box. They are all scaled down, leaving the image un-aligned with the rest of the page. Any suggestions to get the image to fit the exact space of the flash box much appreciated. Thanks, Mike.

    Have to say that this is a great step by step tutorial. Most tutorials that I have found on the web are way too confusing to follow….

  9. Gibson Says:

    I can’t see any video.

  11. ivan-sama Says:

    well what should people who’re using CS4?

  12. Glados Says:

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I knew there had to be some way to create a slideshow in DW Cs3 that did not require making it in a flash program (Adobe Flash, etc). You have no idea how much aggravation you just saved me. :3

    Dear Mark,

    Thank you very much for the Video,
    Unfortunately, I cannot see how to setup your video so that I can see it,

    My Dreamweaver cs3 does not show the same way as Your Dreamweaver made simple.

    Therefore I cannot see that it will work.

    Do you have a sample of Adobe keyboard standard that i can filch from you or you could send me a copy if you so wish.

    kindest regards

    Nice tutorial, however CS4 is the current version, mind showing us a tip on that?

  15. ravi Says:

    I have a question. Is there any possibility so that we can play with the control bar, i mean to say changing the color of the control bar, creating our own design for it??

    I tried the Flash slideshow on your tutorial and it doesn’t show up on the net. I also tried the timeline feature and I can’t get that one to show as well. Any ideas why?
