S5 - Browser Slideshow

Jason Salas posts about S5 (Simple Standards-based Slide Show System), an XHTML, CSS and JavaScript browser-based slideshow. The demo is very impressive - after looking at it stupidly for a few seconds, I realised that clicking in the white area or pressing the space bar starts the slideshow. Hovering over the bottom-right corner reveals navigation controls, and viewing the source shows that authoring can be done on a simple XHTML page by surrounding each slide in a div with the "slide" class - the navigation controls are created dynamically in the JavaScript. Very cool.
