When creating an image slider, using a cross fade is one of more popular effects. Various sliders use differing techniques to create such an effect. Two techniques I've found so far are:

  • Use an overlay and underlay <div> and fade in and out each other's visibility.
  • Create a <div> matching the exact size of the slider during initialization, play with its z-index property, and then fade each other.

Is there a better way to create this effect?
