How can JavaScript be utilized to create a slideshow with images in PHP?

To create a slideshow with images in PHP, you can use JavaScript to handle the slideshow functionality. You can use PHP to dynamically generate the HTML markup for the images and then use JavaScript to create the slideshow effect by changing the visibility of the images at regular intervals.

<?php
$images = array('image1.jpg', 'image2.jpg', 'image3.jpg');

echo '<div id="slideshow">';
foreach ($images as $image) {
    echo '<img src="' . $image . '" style="display: none;" />';
}
echo '</div>';

echo '<script>
    var images = document.querySelectorAll("#slideshow img");
    var current = 0;

    function showImage(index) {
        images[current].style.display = "none";
        images[index].style.display = "block";
        current = index;
    }

    setInterval(function() {
        var next = (current + 1) % images.length;
        showImage(next);
    }, 3000);
</script>';
?>
