3. Slider Click and Fade Functionality
In this video we'll show you how to change the slides in your jquery slider. We'll be adding the functionality to click between each of slides and fading them in and out. Take a look at the code used below:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
<title>jQuery Slider</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="slider/slider.css">
<script src="slider/slider.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="slider">
<div class="content active" style="background:#99cc00">
Content 1
</div>
<div class="content" style="background:#0099cc">
Content 2
</div>
<div class="content" style="background:#cc9900">
Content 3
</div>
<div class="slider-left"></div>
<div class="slider-right"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
slider.css
.slider{
position:relative;
height:480px;
width:100%;
}
.slider .content{
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0px;
width:100%;
height:100%;
text-align:center;
z-index:1;
opacity:0;
transition:opacity 0.5s linear;
}
.slider .content.active{
z-index:2;
opacity:1;
transition:opacity 0.5s linear;
}
.slider-right{
position:absolute;
right:0px;
top:0px;
width:45px;
height:100%;
background:#333;
cursor:pointer;
z-index:100;
}
.slider-left{
position:absolute;
left:0px;
top:0px;
width:45px;
height:100%;
background:#333;
cursor:pointer;
z-index:100;
}
slider.js (new file)
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.slider-right').click(function(){
active = $(this).parent().find('.content.active');
if( $(active).next('.content').length ){
$(active).next('.content').addClass('active');
} else {
$(this).parent().children('.content').first().addClass('active');
}
$(active).removeClass('active');
});
$('.slider-left').click(function(){
active = $(this).parent().find('.content.active');
if( $(active).prev('.content').length ){
$(active).prev('.content').addClass('active');
} else {
$(this).parent().children('.content').last().addClass('active');
}
$(active).removeClass('active');
});
});
4. Adding the slide functionality
In this video we are going to show you how to add the slide functionality to your slider as opposed to the fade functionality. We will make our slider extendable so that way anytime we want to switch between the slide or fade functionality we can do that by changing the value of a variable.
