How to add great featured jQuery content slider to your blogger blog or other website ? Read the instruction given below to add this featured content slider to your blog with in few minutes. Remember to use 307px width and 254px height images for this slider. I recommend to DOWNLOAD java script files and host it yourself.

1. Login to your blogger dashboard--> Design - -> Edit HTML.

2. Scroll down to where you see </head> tag .

3. Copy below code and paste it just before the </head> tag .

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
          jQuery('#mycarousel').jcarousel({
          wrap:"both",
          scroll:2,
          animation:"slow"
  });
          function mycarousel_initCallback(carousel) {
          jQuery('#featured-next-button').bind('click', function() {
                  carousel.next();
                  return false;
          });

          jQuery('#featured-prev-button').bind('click', function() {
                  carousel.prev();
                  return false;
          });
          jQuery('.button-nav span').bind('click', function() {
                  carousel.scroll(jQuery.jcarousel.intval(jQuery(this).text()));
                  return false;
          });
  };
          jQuery('#feature-carousel').jcarousel({
          wrap:"both",
          scroll:1,
          auto:10,
          initCallback: mycarousel_initCallback,
          buttonNextHTML: null,
          buttonPrevHTML: null
  });

});
</script>
