I am working on this demo. Why am I not able to get the current index number of .carousel-item.active properly?
As you can see when second slide is showing I am still getting the first slide index and so on.
var totalItems = $('.carousel-item').length;
var currentIndex = $('.carousel-item.active').index() + 1;
var myCarousel = document.getElementById('carouselExampleIndicators')
myCarousel.addEventListener('slide.bs.carousel', function() {
currentIndex = $('.carousel-item.active').index() + 1;
$('#slide').text('' + currentIndex + ' / ' + totalItems + '');
});.carousel-item img {
max-height: 200px !important;
}
.carousel-indicators{
top:16px !important;
