jQueryforDesigners has added a scrolling carousel that worked in the same way the carousel worked on the Apple Mac ads page. They have published a tutorial which walk through the fundamentals of scrolling carousel, and how they have created jQuery Infinite Carousel.

The trick is building the DOM with the cloned nodes, because we’ve cloned the start of the list to the end of the list, when we scroll off the last items, it looks like we’ve looped back round. Once the animation completes, we change the scrollLeft position back to the real first items.

This scrollLeft isn’t visible to the user since the overflow is hidden, and so it creates the effect of being infinitely sliding from left or right.
