I recently started to work with other JS framework such as MooTools and Juery. I must admit that they are far superior both in quality and quantity of additional modules that can be easily added in your projects.

One of those really useful elements is ‘jcarousel’, wich you should know [I mean, if you came here from google searching for a 'working circular carousel'!!!] but lack of a full support for circular carousel.
The example in the official document needs the content loaded on-the-fly, not covering the most usual case, where the content is put into the markup [<ul> <li> sequence] and I found nowere a working example for such case. Since I had to figure i out how to make it work for a project I recently come across, here you go.

The idea is quite basic: you use the callback functions to create on the fly elements that you put in the hidden area before starting the animation; the only thing I changed respect the original example is that i use the jcarousel.get() method to get the content from the existing list instead of getting it from WWW, I also added auto start, pager and other nice features, but of course your need may be different.

make good use of this one!!
