The easiest thing would be to Google "jQuery slideshow". You'll need to download or link to the newest jQuery library and download a plugin library that interests you. jQuery is not easy to learn, but for a lot of these you don't need to learn very much. The real set up is the way you organize your HTML. Any javascript you need can usually be copy/pasted with few changes right from the plugin's homepage.

 

That said, a slideshow is a very good project for teaching yourself javascript. If you show us what you've tried so far, we can help out. If you haven't even started, I would suggest learning how to do this: in a fresh document, put a button and an image. Click the button to execute a function that changes the src attribute of the image. That's not your slideshow, but you'll learn some basic skills that you'll need.
