Fantastic script! Thank you a lot for your work.

There is something that i just can’t figure out and any help would be much appreciated!

I am creating a 5 page portfolio carousel consisting of an introducing page and 4 category pages. The introducing page is the first tab-div (“tab-1″), the one you see when loading the site.

Here’s the headache: I put links on this “tab-1″ intro page to connect to the 4 follow tab-divs using the same html formatting (ul class=”tabs” …) as used in YOUR main tab-style menu on top of the page. I am actually using the same layout of your demo but giving to the user 2 different possibilities (YOUR top “tab” menu and MY links inside of the first tab container) to reach the other carousel contents. It works: the pages slide to the correct position when i click on my links that i created INSIDE of the first tab. That’s really cool!

But, when I click on one of MY links inside the first page the main (YOUR) top “tabs” MENU does not change style of the selected tab menu item as it does when you click directly on it. Did I get the issue clear?

My question is now, is there inside of carousel.js a kind of css style switcher which you use and which I just have to learn to use or do I need some extra js to do this? I admit, I tried several solutions that I found on the web, but I just don’t get it to work. I am a bad programmer, actually I am not a programmer at all, but until now I was able to figure out things quite well. I am stuck here.

Thanks for ideas or eventually some help on resolving!

Thanks so much for your work on this carousel! It’s been great. I did discover one issue in Opera. The fade effect in your example 3 reverts back to the first image after the fade is complete.

Great great great job. I’ve been looking for something similar with the scroller on sortfolio.com for a long time. Also providing a lightweight unobtrusive version makes it even gr8er. Keep up the good work!

it is a nice work and very attractive look.

i tried the same example using HTML DIR=RTL
it got missed up.

the problem with using CSS values based on page direction is somehow painful.

i would like to use this extension if there is an easy way to switch between LTR and RTL pages without the need to change the javascript/css code.

thanks.
