Implementing Flux Slider in Blogger

At some point in a site you might have used a slider of images for e.g. your featured articles or something. While there are literally hundreds of these out there, Flux goes a step further and while browser support is not the best , have a look at it as it utilizes some really great CSS3 effects. As the author states, you can either use jQuery or Zepto.js. In order to view the demo you need a browser that supports CSS3 transitions (Chrome or Safari ). It utilizes hardware acceleration wherever possible to improve performace on less powerful devices, such as mobiles & tablets making it mobile friendly specially iPad/Android.

4.Now for adding the images into this plugin see the following markup:

<section class="container"> 
<div id="slider"> 
    <img src="avatar.jpg" alt="" /> 
    <img src="greenhornet.jpg" alt="" /> 
    <img src="ironman.jpg" alt="" /> 
    <img src="tron.jpg" alt="" /> 
   </div>
</section>

The class container gives the pagination and bordering style to the plugin.

5.Now save the Post/Page.
