js-slideEngine

Simple, HTML-based presentations - with JavaScript

The target user is a web developer presenting in front of an audience at a conference, meet-up, meeting, etc.

The goals for js-slideengine are (most important first):

• Work in Gecko/FireFox (done)
• PageUp/PageDown slide navigation (done)
• Allow in-slide editing and execution of JavaScript (done)
• Resolution independence (done)
• HTML simplicity (done)
• Look good (working on it)
• Work in WebKit/Safari/Chrome (tested in Chrome)
• Work in IE (not even close - oh well)

Instructions for Use

1. Copy or rename template.html
2. Edit the HTML file, giving each slide the "slide" class
3. <jeffgoldblum>There's no step three</jeffgoldblum>

Little Details

• Use textareas for your JavaScript code.
• To avoid strange browser behavior on page reload, give each textarea a unique name.
• Aforementioned text areas are automatically formatted to take the top half of the screen and are given "Go" buttons that will eval() their contents.
• Any slide that contains just one element will have that element automatically centered.
