vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Wanted Text Slider Widget for Whats New / Hot ???

Not really. Those are image sliders and more for the header. In fact I have the Nivo Slider on my homepage already.

What Im looking for is something to display a set number of recent posts/articles just like the Whats New Widget. But rather then have a widget that displays the top 20 or 30 posts in a big long block I want to look into something that only shows 5 or 10 at a time and the user navigates to the next set of 5 or 10 by clicking a forward of back button. I guess it could be called a widget with pagination animation. (if thats even a term).

Like I said try looking at the eBay homepage and see how they have it setup. Its clean with a set size and can hold allot of information in a small place.

Not automatically animated but rather user controlled.
