Often on webpages, you see scrolling banners with messages. I would like to know how these are created. To make my question more clear, consider this webpage: http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk.

On the top, you see a dynamic banner with changing images and messages. How are these done? I use Dreamweaver, so any information with respect to this software would be greatly helpful.

  • Hi, and welcome to UX. Unfortunately your question isn't about UX, but about the tools used in graphic design. It may be better to post it in the Graphic Design StackExchange site.

This feature is called a slider or carousel.

it can be done with Javascript/jquery (mostly done by huge websites/companies) and it also can be done with css look at littleyang's answer about twitter bootstrap carousel.

a few links of great working javascript/jquery sliders:
