Step Carousel Viewer navigation buttons

[ic408]

1) Script Title: Step Carousel Viewer

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...epcarousel.htm

3) Describe problem: I would really like it so that when you are on the last panel and click "forward 1 panel" it does not send you to the first panel and vice versa for the "back 1 panel", rather I would like for it to simply not be clickable, or at least not send you away from the current panel. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Find this part in your stepcarousel.js:

stepBy:function(galleryid, steps){
		var config=stepcarousel.configholder[galleryid]
		if (typeof config=="undefined"){
			alert("There's an error with your set up of Carousel Viewer \""+galleryid+ "\"!")
			return
		}
		var direction=(steps>0)? 'forward' : 'back' //If "steps" is negative, that means backwards
		var pindex=config.currentpanel+steps //index of panel to stop at
		pindex=(pindex>config.paneloffsets.length-1 || pindex<0 && pindex-steps>0)? 0 : (pindex<0)? config.paneloffsets.length+steps : pindex //take into account end or starting panel and step direction 
		var endpoint=config.paneloffsets[pindex]+(pindex==0? 0 : config.beltoffset) //left distance for Belt DIV to travel to
		if (pindex==0 && direction=='forward' || config.currentpanel==0 && direction=='back'){ //decide whether to apply "push pull" effect
			config.$belt.animate({left: -config.paneloffsets[config.currentpanel]-(direction=='forward'? 100 : -30)+'px'}, 'normal', function(){
				config.$belt.animate({left: -endpoint+'px'}, 'slow', function(){config.onslideaction(this)})
			})
		}
		else
			config.$belt.animate({left: -endpoint+'px'}, 'slow', function(){config.onslideaction(this)})
		config.currentpanel=pindex
		this.statusreport(galleryid)
	},

Replace highlighted with:

(config.paneloffsets.length-1)

Hope it helps.

Can anyone out there please help. Last friday I DL the script and installed it on a website. I continued to add things to the content and sunddenly the panels are stuck on top of each other. Yesterday I erased the whole page and started from scratch. No matter what I do each panel keeps stacking on each other. I even viewed source on a page that a found that had the script and went line by line. I am sure it is something simple. I just need another pair of eyes. (also I am just a master at copy and paste) I am not the best programmer.

This is the link to the page I am trying to fix.

You should have created a new thread with this since this is relatively unrelated to the current thread. Also, when posting to another thread, see the posting format.
