An example of using buttons to indicate how many slides there are in the slideshow, and which slide the user is currently viewing.
var slideIndex = 1; showDivs(slideIndex); function plusDivs(n) { showDivs(slideIndex += n); } function currentDiv(n) { showDivs(slideIndex = n); } function showDivs(n) { var i; var x = document.getElementsByClassName("mySlides"); var dots = document.getElementsByClassName("demo"); if (n > x.length) {slideIndex = 1} if (n < 1) {slideIndex = x.length} for (i = 0; i < x.length; i++) { x[i].style.display = "none"; } for (i = 0; i < dots.length; i++) { dots[i].className = dots[i].className.replace(" w3-red", ""); } x[slideIndex-1].style.display = "block"; dots[slideIndex-1].className += " w3-red"; }
