Very Simple Image Slider/Slideshow with left and right button. No autoplay

Question

I\'m trying to make a very, very simple image slider/slideshow with no autoplay please. I only want to go to next or prev image on click. Having some issues as you can read

Answer 1

Why try to reinvent the wheel? There are more lightweight jQuery slideshow solutions out there then you could poke a stick at, and someone has already done the hard work for you and thought about issues that you might run into (cross-browser compatability etc).

jQuery Cycle is one of my favourite light weight libraries.

What you want to achieve could be done in just

    jQuery("#slideshow").cycle({
    timeout:0, // no autoplay
    fx: 'fade', //fade effect, although there are heaps
    next: '#next',
    prev: '#prev'
    });
