I think you want solution like this. below snippet is bxslider caption demo

jQuery('.bxslider').bxSlider({
  nextSelector: '#slider-next',
  prevSelector: '#slider-prev',
  nextText: 'next',
  prevText: 'prev',
  pager: true,
  prependtxt: 'Examples  ',
  pagerType: 'short',
  mode: 'fade',
  auto: true,
  onSliderLoad: function(currentIndex) {
    $(".slider-txt").html($('.bxslider li').eq(currentIndex).find("img").attr("title"));
  },
  onSlideBefore: function($slideElement, oldIndex, newIndex) {
    $(".slider-txt").html($slideElement.find("img").attr("title"));
  }
});

.slider-txt {
  color: red;
}
