I'd like to do something like what is shown on the homepage here...

Images that will scroll on their own, but if a use clicks a button, it will move the direction they want.

Any suggestions?

No ideas on this? Was it the exclamation point I used in the title? I know, that was annoying. Don't know why I did that.

This is really a very simple little Flash application. Lee Brimelow has a tutorial on doing this on gotoAndLearn(). Link (http://gotoandlearn.com/play?id=22).

Post in the Flash forum if you have any trouble altering it to what you want.

That's a great tutorial. I would need to figure out how to slide the image in as a filmstrip somehow, though.

My other concern was that I thought it might be better to do it with Javascript. I know Flash claims massive market penetration, but this is for a site with folks who may be a few steps behind current technology. Moreover, moving forward, doesn't Flash create issues for mobile access (at least for now, anyway)?
