Example file: http://ischagast.nl/jquery/carousel.html
In the example file you see a slideshow of news items where you can navigate with the arrows. I wanted too add some extra features and that's the pager option on the bottom right. That features works great but now I also want that when news item nr 3 is visible also number 3 in the pager gets an extra class. After some great explanation of Ariel Flesler I thought I could fix it but I don't. My first try was to get the index of the slideshow items with: $('body.domenabled .carousel .carousel_container ul li').each(function(index) {}); And then with: var test = $('body.domenabled .carousel .carousel_container ul li').index(); $('div.carousel_counter_nav ul li a').click(function() { alert (test.index) }); But it al did not what I want...
