I am looking to make a slider that holds multple images, its an extremely simple product slider with images that link to their product pages. I want the arrows to be on either side of the slider. I notice that when i also implement my slider it negates the "prettyPhoto" feature i have in the div before.
I am using HTML4 unfortunately. here is a JS fiddle i put together of my slider!
I cant get the arrows to show for some reason... and all the images are on top of eachother. im just not quite sure what im doing wrong with this. i am fairly new at javascript and sliders.
Thanks in advance for all the help.
There a couple of things you must do in order to customize the controls :
You have to have the controls in the first place. By default, the prev/Next
controls are are set to false:
navigation:
true
Next, we will create the actual arrows for the the controls using the navigationText
options to parse the array of strings into real functioning HTML.
navigationText: [ "<i class='fa fa-chevron-left'></i>", "<i class='fa fa-chevron-right'></i>" ]
I almost forgot, when I reviewed your Fiddle, it wasn't functioning at all. There are at least 3 external files that are needed to run Owl Carousel.
