I'm not too good at javascript. and hope I can get a bit of help. I'm using Coda Slider 2.0, and have designed it to where the tabs are another slider to the right of the main slider, and each item. Basically like this mootools plugin http://landofcoder.com/demo/mootool/lofslidernews/index2.1.html
Problem is the items will not scroll. How do I make the items (or tabs to the right) scroll down as the slider rotates? Otherwise the slider will show the 4th slide but not scroll to the 4th item on the right, but Thanks everyone.
Here is the Coda-Slider plugin:
// when the DOM is ready...
$(document).ready(function () {
var $panels = $('#slider .scrollContainer > div');
var $container = $('#slider .scrollContainer');
// if false, we'll float all the
panels left and fix the width
// of the container
var horizontal = true;
// float the
panels left if we're going horizontal
if (horizontal) {
$panels.css({
'float' : 'left',
'position' : 'relative' // IE fix to ensure overflow is hidden
});
// calculate a new width for the container (so it holds all panels)
$container.css('width', $panels[0].offsetWidth * $panels.length);
}
// collect the scroll object, at the same time apply the hidden overflow
// to remove the default scrollbars that will appear
var $scroll = $('#slider .scroll').css('overflow', 'hidden');
// apply our left + right buttons
$scroll
.before('<img class="scrollButtons left" src="images/scroll_left.png" />')
.after('<img class="scrollButtons right" src="images/scroll_right.png" />');
// handle nav selection
function selectNav() {
$(this)
.parents('ul:first')
.find('a')
.removeClass('selected')
.end()
.end()
.addClass('selected');
}
$('#slider .navigation').find('a').click(selectNav);
// go find the navigation link that has this target and select the nav
function trigger(data) {
var el = $('#slider .navigation').find('a[href$="' + data.id + '"]').get(0);
selectNav.call(el);
}
if (window.location.hash) {
trigger({ id : window.location.hash.substr(1) });
} else {
$('ul.navigation a:first').click();
}
// offset is used to move to *exactly* the right place, since I'm using
// padding on my example, I need to subtract the amount of padding to
// the offset. Try removing this to get a good idea of the effect
var offset = parseInt((horizontal ?
$container.css('paddingTop') :
$container.css('paddingLeft'))
|| 0) * -1;
var scrollOptions = {
target: $scroll, // the element that has the overflow
// can be a selector which will be relative to the target
items: $panels,
navigation: '.navigation a',
// selectors are NOT relative to document, i.e. make sure they're unique
prev: 'img.left',
next: 'img.right',
// allow the scroll effect to run both directions
axis: 'xy',
onAfter: trigger, // our final callback
offset: offset,
// duration of the sliding effect
duration: 500,
// easing - can be used with the easing plugin:
// http://gsgd.co.uk/sandbox/jquery/easing/
easing: 'swing'
};
// apply serialScroll to the slider - we chose this plugin because it
// supports// the indexed next and previous scroll along with hooking
// in to our navigation.
$('#slider').serialScroll(scrollOptions);
// now apply localScroll to hook any other arbitrary links to trigger
// the effect
$.localScroll(scrollOptions);
// finally, if the URL has a hash, move the slider in to position,
// setting the duration to 1 because I don't want it to scroll in the
// very first page load. We don't always need this, but it ensures
// the positioning is absolutely spot on when the pages loads.
scrollOptions.duration = 1;
$.localScroll.hash(scrollOptions);
