Its very simple on what you need to do:
Download contentslider.css (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/contentslider.css).
Download contentslider.js (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/contentslider.js).
Downlaod loading.gif (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/loading.gif).
Now that you've got the files need, make a page called "test.html".
In it put this code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="contentslider.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="contentslider.js">

<h2>Example 1</h2>
<!--Inner content DIVs should always carry "contentdiv" CSS class-->

<div id="slider1" class="sliderwrapper">

Now that you have it stalled correctly, open test.html. Now you have a content slider. :)
