Hi All;
What I would like to do:
use a single container to load
images.
As it is now:
I have eleven (11) containers in HTML mark-up each with its own div.
each container holds 4
images (2
images side by side top and bottom)
when link in anchor tag is clicked div with
images fades in.
/*-- Jquery accordion is used for navigation typical example is below --*/
<li>
<a class="head" href="#">commercial/hospitality</a>
<ul>
<li><a href="#" projectName="project1" projectType="hospitality1"
image1="images/testImage1.jpg"
image2="images/testImage2.jpg"
image3="images/testImage3.jpg"
image4="images/testImage4.jpg">hospitality project number 1</a>
</li>
<li><a href="#" projectName="project2" projectType="hospitality2"
image1="images/testImage1.jpg"
image2="images/testImage2.jpg"
image3="images/testImage3.jpg"
image4="images/testImage4.jpg">hospitality project number 2</a>
</li>
<li><a href="#" projectName="project3" projectType="hospitality3"
image1="images/testImage1.jpg"
image2="images/testImage2.jpg"
image3="images/testImage3.jpg"
image4="images/testImage4.jpg">hospitality project number 3</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
Typical <div> container used for image insertion currently there are 11 of them:
<div id="hospitality1" class="current">
<div id="image1"><img src="images/testImage.jpg"/></div>
<div id="image2"><img src="images/testImage.jpg"/></div>
<div id="image3"><img src="images/testImage.jpg"/></div>
<div id="image4"><img src="images/testImage.jpg"/></div>
</div>
Here is the code I am using at this point, it does work, but is there a better way
to do this that will only re-use a single div container for loading the images?
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#navigation a').click(function (selected) {
var projectType = $(this).attr("projectType"); //projectType
var projectName = $(this).attr("projectName"); //projectName
var image1 = $(this).attr("image1"); //anchor tag for image number 1
var image2 = $(this).attr("image2"); //anchor tag for image number 2
var image3 = $(this).attr("image3"); //anchor tag for image number 3
var image4 = $(this).attr("image4"); //anchor tag for image number 4
console.log(projectType); //returns type of project
console.log(projectName); //returns name of project
console.log(image1); //returns 1st image
console.log(image2); //returns 2nd image
console.log(image3); //returns 3rd image
console.log(image4); //returns 4th image
$(function() {
$(".current").hide(); // hides previous selected image
$("#" + projectType ).fadeIn("normal").addClass("current");
});
});
As you can, see the mark up getting quite large.
Any help is appreciated.
