Was trying some other options and basically figured out the indexing/
setting the id issue: .attr('id', 'pane-' + ((LENGTH - startingPane) +
i) % LENGTH ). I am still curious about this codes performance though
and any suggestions as to how it could be made better. Thanks,

I would also be interested in comments/suggestions about how this code
or even approach could be simplified/improved. It seems pretty
lightweight and simple to me, but I have very little idea about it's
performance and am curious if I am doing something that is unnecessary
or just plain pointless.

Hello,
Below is a script I am working on for a slideshow for a set of 5 divs.
I am generating a random number to represent the index of the starting
div, i.e. the one that gets displayed in the middle. All of the other
4 divs get relative indexes so that they appear either to the left or
right of the starting div. When the forward or backward buttons get
clicked, 4 of the 5 divs animate and the 5th gets positioned to the
oppossite far side as it should. My problem is that when I am
performing my initial $.getJson call, I need to set an id on each 5
(to the formula of pane-0, pane-1, etc.). This ID determines the
initial positioning of the divs. My issue is that I am trying to set
that ID in relationship to the variable startingPane, and something
isn't getting set right when the starting pane is either the 4th or
5th div.
Once the arrow buttons are clicked, my two functions set everything
right and it all works great from there...I am just having an issue
with the initial injection and how to set those IDs correctly such
that they take my startingPane variable into account and maintain the
correct ordering (i.e., the relational order of the panes should
always be middle, right, farRight, farLeft, Left and then middle again
and so on).
Anyone have any suggestions? The jQuery file is viewable

Thanks for any help/input you can give.
