HTML is below, it cycles through these fine when I click on the prev and next divs but if i click anywhere on the page it resets it back to the first li in the list. Any clue as to how to fix this is appreciated.
<ul id="cycle_services">
<li>
<div class="service_header"><b>front-end web development</b></div>
<div class="service_description">description</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="service_header"><b>back-end web development</b></div>
<div class="service_description">description</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="service_header"><b>web application development</b></div>
<div class="service_description">description</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div id="button_container">
<div id="s_prev"></div>
<div id="s_next"></div>
</div>
JQuery:
$(document.body).click(function () {
$('#cycle_services').cycle({
prev: '#s_prev',
next: '#s_next',
timeout:0
});
});
Replace
$(document.body).click(function () {
with
$(function () {
You are creating a new slide
instance every time you click inside the document
.
It should be created only once inside the document ready handler, but you were binding it to the click event.
