anyone know how to add something like this to the featured content slider

I have the pagination working but I would like to display a number for the first slide and one for the last slide

example would be

< You are on slide 3 of 10 >

< > these are the pagination arrows I am using images for them..

any help would be great.

Try using the onChange event handler of the script to do that (see close to end of script page (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/featuredcontentslider.htm)). For example, something like:


onChange: function(previndex, curindex){
var counter=document.getElementById("counter")
counter.innerHTML="You are on slide "+curindex+" of 10"
}

Where "counter" is a blank DIV that will contain the counter.

This worked great.. but where it says 10 is there a way to spit out or count the total number of items in the slider?
thanks

To get the total length of the contents, try accessing the variable setting.contentdivs.length:


counter.innerHTML="You are on slide "+curindex+" of "+setting.contentdivs.length
