I've been using the jquery cycle plugin (http://malsup.com/jquery/ cycle) and it's doing exactly as I want except that it doesn't seem to recognise the first slide as slide one. I'm using the onAfter function to to turn the next/prev links on and off as appropriate and to display page 1 of ? but the next link persists on its own on page 2 (when you would expect the prev link to have appeared) and, although the pages are counted correctly, page 2 shows up as page 1 of 7 same as the real page one). You can see what I mean at:
http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/~ttzelrn/ma-tesol/module1/unit1/index.php The structure of divs is quite involved but I think it's sound and, as I say, the plugin is counting the divs ok. Code below: $(document).ready(function() { $('#cycle-content').cycle({ fx: 'none', prev: '#prev', next: '#next', after: onAfter, timeout: 0 }); function onAfter(curr, next, opts) { var index = opts.currSlide; $('#prev')[index == 0 ? 'hide' : 'show'](); $('#next')[index == opts.slideCount - 1 ? 'hide' : 'show'](); var caption = 'Page ' + (opts.currSlide + 1) + ' of ' + opts.slideCount; $('#caption').html(caption); } }); I'd be really grateful for any help with this. Matthew
