<div class="text">Three</div>
</div>
<a class="prev" onclick="plusSlides(-1)">?</a>
<a class="next" onclick="plusSlides(1)">?</a>
</div>
<br/>
<div style="text-align: center">
<span class="dot" onclick="currentSlide(1)"></span>
<span class="dot" onclick="currentSlide(2)"></span>
<span class="dot" onclick="currentSlide(3)"></span>
</div>
Example.css
Add CSS style to give the size and effect for look. In this example, we are styling the slideshow.
<style>
/* CSS */
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body {
font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;
margin: 0;
}
.mySlides {
display: none;
}
img {
vertical-align: middle;
width: 100%;
height: 400px;
}
/* Slideshow container */
.slideshow-container {
max-width: 100vw;
position: relative;
margin-top: 5%;
}
/* Next & previous buttons */
.prev,
.next {
cursor: pointer;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
width: auto;
padding: 16px;
margin-top: -22px;
color: white;
font-weight: bold;
font-size: 18px;
transition: 0.6s ease;
border-radius: 0 3px 3px 0;
user-select: none;
}
/* Position the "next button" to the right */
.next {
right: 0;
border-radius: 3px 0 0 3px;
}
/* On hover, add a black background color with a little bit see-through */
.prev:hover,
.next:hover {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
}
/* Caption text */
.text {
color: #ff0000;
font-size: 15px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 8px;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
}
/* Number text (1/3 etc) */
.numbertext {
color: #f2f2f2;
font-size: 12px;
padding: 8px 12px;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
}
/* The dots/bullets/indicators */
.dot {
cursor: pointer;
height: 15px;
width: 15px;
margin: 0 2px;
background-color: #bbb;
border-radius: 50%;
display: inline-block;
transition: background-color 0.6s ease;
}
.active,
.dot:hover {
background-color: #46dc5a;
}
/* Fading animation */
.fade {
animation-name: fade;
animation-duration: 1.5s;
}
@keyframes fade {
from {
opacity: 0.4;
}
to {
opacity: 1;
}
}
/* On smaller screens, decrease text size */
@media only screen and (max-width: 300px) {
.prev,
.next,
.text {
font-size: 11px;
}
}
</style>
Example.js
In this example, creating the slideshow with two buttons prev and next. And passing the length of the image in the JavaScript array to iterate the image from first to last, or we can do forward and backward by clicking the buttons.
<script>
/* javascript Code */
let slideIndex = 1; //set index at images first
showSlides(slideIndex);
function plusSlides(n) {
showSlides((slideIndex += n));
}
function currentSlide(n) {
showSlides((slideIndex = n));
}
function showSlides(n) {
let i;
let slides = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides");
let dots = document.getElementsByClassName("dot");
if (n > slides.length) {
slideIndex = 1;
}
if (n < 1) {
slideIndex = slides.length;
}
for (i = 0; i < slides.length; i++) {
slides[i].style.display = "none";
}
for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) {
dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" active", "");
}
slides[slideIndex - 1].style.display = "block";
dots[slideIndex - 1].className += " active";
}
</script>
