Horizontal Slide Show.

I need a script that will do a conveyor belt horizontal slide show.  Looking for something that will slide about 20+ images right to left slowly.

Superm,  I like that one but it does this weird blue box almost like a hyperlink and pauses after a while and reloads?
Mplungjan, Marquis is way too choppy
You're right.  Mplungjan, that does work in Firefox, however non-standard.
Replace all instances of border=1 with border=0
>>pauses after a while and reloads
I'm not seeing that on the demo.  Describe further.
One of the biggest problems is I can not specify a %width on the script

//Specify the slider's width (in pixels)
var sliderwidth="100%"    <------------------------ does not work :(
//Specify the slider's height
var sliderheight="150px"

Right, that's cause it says in pixels, which are different from percent.  Pixels are the smallest unit your screen can display.  Each pixel can have a different color.  Screen distances are measured in them often.  Experiment to find a value you like.
the only problem is when people resize if you don't use % then the size of the element does not resize along with the window which is a big problem in this case.
Not too choppy if you specify scrollAmount

IS There anyway to get the below script to accept 100% or 90% width Points upped
