jquery simple image slideshow tutorial [closed]

Answer 1

Here is my adaptation of Michael Soriano's tutorial. See below or in JSBin.

$(function() {
  var theImage = $('ul#ss li img');
  var theWidth = theImage.width();
  //wrap into mother div
  $('ul#ss').wrap('
');
  //assign height width and overflow hidden to mother
  $('#mother').css({
    width: function() {
      return theWidth;
    },
    height: function() {
      return theImage.height();
    },
    position: 'relative',
    overflow: 'hidden'
  });
  //get total of image sizes and set as width for ul 
  var totalWidth = theImage.length * theWidth;
  $('ul').css({
    width: function() {
      return totalWidth;
    }
  });

  var ss_timer = setInterval(function() {
    ss_next();
  }, 3000);

  function ss_next() {
    var a = $(".active");
    a.removeClass('active');

    if (a.hasClass('last')) {
      //last element -- loop
      a.parent('ul').animate({
        "margin-left": (0)
      }, 1000);
      a.siblings(":first").addClass('active');
    } else {
      a.parent('ul').animate({
        "margin-left": (-(a.index() + 1) * theWidth)
      }, 1000);
      a.next().addClass('active');
    }
  }

  // Cancel slideshow and move next manually on click
  $('ul#ss li img').on('click', function() {
    clearInterval(ss_timer);
    ss_next();
  });

});

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}
#ss {
  list-style: none;
}
#ss li {
  float: left;
}
#ss img {
  width: 200px;
  height: 100px;
}
