How to display dynamically added images in an automatic slideshow which changes every 4 seconds

I am trying to create an automatic slideshow which retrieves the images and links dynamically from a Sharepoint list and shows it in a slideshow. I'm able to retrieve the images and href links but they are coming one below another somewhat like this:-

I want each one in a different slide. Somewhat like this:-

This is the code:-

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">



<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>


$(document).ready(function() {
        // Rest URL
        var listUrl = "/_api/Web/Lists/GetByTitle('Banner_test')/items?$select=Image_for_header,Link_for_header,Id";  //Banner_test is the title of Sharepoint list, Image_for_header, Link_for_header and Id are the column names
        getItem(listUrl) ;     
        });
        
        
        function getItem(listUrl) {  
        $.ajax({  
            url: _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + listUrl,  
            type: "GET",  
            headers: {  
                "accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",  
            },  
            success: function(data) {  
            
                       
               console.log(data.d.results);  
             var items = data.d.results;  
             var demop = document.getElementById("banner");
        for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) { 
        
                 
         
        demop.innerHTML +="<a target=_blank href="+(items[i].Link_for_header).Url+"><img width=100% src="+(items[i].Image_for_header).Url+"></a>";
        
            
              
           
         
           
                                           }  
                                           
                                        
            demop.appendChild(demop)                                                   
                              
                              
                             
               
            },  
            error: function(error) {  
                alert(JSON.stringify(error));  
            }  
        });  
    } 
    
</script>
<style>
* {box-sizing: border-box;}
html, body {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    padding: 0
    font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
    margin:0px;
    }
.mySlides {display: none;}
img {vertical-align: middle;}



/* Slideshow container */
.slideshow-container {
  max-width: 1000px;
  position: relative;
  margin: auto;
}



/* The dots/bullets/indicators */
.dot {
  height: 15px;
  width: 15px;
  margin: 0 2px;
  background-color: #bbb;
  border-radius: 50%;
  display: inline-block;
  transition: background-color 0.6s ease;
}

.active {
  background-color: #717171;
}

/* Fading animation */
.fade {
  -webkit-animation-name: fade;
  -webkit-animation-duration: 0.5s;
  animation-name: fade;
  animation-duration: 0.5s;
  /* /filter: contrast(50%); */
  }

@-webkit-keyframes fade {
  from {opacity: .4} 
  to {opacity: 1}
}

@keyframes fade {
  from {opacity: .4} 
  to {opacity: 1}
}

/* On smaller screens, decrease text size */
@media only screen and (max-width: 300px) {
  .text {font-size: 11px}
}
</style>
</head>
<body>



<div  id = 'banner'>




</div>
<br>

<div style="text-align:center">
  <span class="dot"></span> 
  <span class="dot"></span> 
  <span class="dot"></span> 
</div>

<script>
var slideIndex = 0;
showSlides();

function showSlides() {
  var i;
  var slides = document.getElementsByTagName("a") !important;
  //var slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
  var dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");
  for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
    slides[i].style.display = "none";  
  }
  slideIndex++;
  if (slideIndex > slides.length) {slideIndex = 1}    
  for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
    dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
  }
  slides[slideIndex-1].style.display = "block";  
  dots[slideIndex-1].className += " active";
  setTimeout(showSlides, 4000); // Change image every 4 seconds
  
}
</script>

</body>
</html>

I know that I've probably made some silly mistake but I'm not able to point it out since I'm new to javascript.
