good day everyone... badly needed help how can I trigger the next prev function if I press the left and right arrow keys. this is for the slider/lightbox that I was assign into.
this is the code
$(document).ready(function() {
var currentIndex = 0,
navItems = $(".navindex");
function setSlide(index) {...}
$(".navindex").click(function() {
var index = $(".navindex").index($(this));
currentIndex = index;
setSlide(currentIndex);
});
function next() {
if (currentIndex < navItems.length - 1) {
currentIndex++;
setSlide(currentIndex);
}
}
$(".next").click(function() {
next();
});
function prev() {
if (currentIndex > 0) {
currentIndex--;
setSlide(currentIndex);
}
}
$(".prev").click(function() {
prev();
});
function slide() {
if (currentIndex < navItems.length - 1) {
currentIndex++;
setSlide(currentIndex);
} else {
currentIndex = 0;
setSlide(currentIndex);
}
}
});Juan Pablo Isaza
You want to handle key events. Something along the lines of:
$(document).keyup((evt) => {
if (evt.key === 'ArrowLeft')
return prev();
if (evt.key === 'ArrowRight')
return next();
});
