I have a slideshow on my page where images are being changed after some time. The slideshow worked great at first until i put in JSON. Now i can see the first image only but they are not changing. Any ideas ?
https://jsfiddle.net/j2qoyk13/ There is a fiddle but as links and everything is on a localhost , it is probably useless.. You can still see the code .
Here it is for the lazy ones :)
[
{
"src" : "./images/slide-1.png",
"alt" : "Slide one"
},
{
"src" : "./images/slide-2.png",
"alt" : "Slide two"
},
{
"src" : "./images/slide-3.png",
"alt" : "Slide three"
},
{
"src" : "./images/slide-4.png",
"alt" : "Slide four"
}
]
//slide show
var slides = $('.sidenav li');
var slideIndex = 0;
var slideTime = animate();
slideTo(slides[0]);
slides.click(function() {
clearInterval(slideTime);
slideTime = animate();
var selectedIndex = $(this).index();
var slide = slides[selectedIndex];
slideTo(slide);
});
function slideTo(slide) {
slides.removeClass("selected");
$(slide).addClass("selected");
slideIndex = jQuery(slide).index();
}
function animate() {
return setInterval(function() {
var slide = slides[slideIndex];
slideTo(slide)
slideIndex++;
if (slideIndex == slides.length) {
slideIndex = 0;
}
}, 500);
}
//Json
var image = $('.sidenav li > img');
$.getJSON('http://localhost:8080/data.json', function(result){
$.each(result, function(i, field){
for (i=0 ; i < image.length ; i++) {
image.attr('src', field.src);
image.attr('alt', field.alt);
}
});
});

The question is , of course, why are the slides not changing now when I added JSON ?
Update your JSON loop logic to this
$.getJSON('http://localhost:8080/data.json', function(result){
var i = 0;
$('.sidenav li').each(function(e){
$(this).find('img').attr('src',result[i].src);
$(this).find('img').attr('alt',result[i].alt);
i++;
});
});
