Image scroller with text and scroll bar

I like the free gift scroller on this site http://www.directphoneshop.co.uk/

does anyone know where i can get it, or something similar?

You can make your own using the Slider widget of jQuery's UI branch.

Here is a tutorial that walks you through how to mimic Apple's product slider. It's basically the same thing.

Most things that you would use JavaScript for that alter the DOM. jQuery basically applies an easier syntax -- an interface, if you will -- to pure JavaScript.

It's not a substitute of JavaScript, but in most basic to intermediate applications, it can be cleaner to implement than pure JavaScript.
