Horizontally centering the active image of a bxSlider carousel with a seamless loop?
I want to make a really simple seamlessly-looping carousel and have tried using bxSlider, but am encountering an issue where my images are off-center.
I have 3 x 1000px wide images and all I want to do is ensure the active image is in the middle of the browser, with the other two images infinitely looping on the left/right sides, like so:
I've tried using a negative-margins trick (left: 50% and margin-left: -500px) but it didn't work and bxSlider went kind of crazy.
My code is very simple and I have a fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/j3hgA/
<ul class="bxslider">
<li><img src="http://i.imgur.com/pOh3bXm.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="http://i.imgur.com/VrvQUzu.jpg" /></li>
<li><img src="http://i.imgur.com/pJr77Ee.jpg" /></li>
</ul>
Is there a better way to do this?
