Client Side Current Index

[Jason]

I'm looking to have a Page X of Y for the rotator.  I'm very close, but can't seem find any documentation on how to get the current index on the client side.

I have the following

<script type="text/javascript">
        function itemShown_handler(sender, args) {
            alert(sender.get_id() + " has changed a frame");
        }
    </script>

What should I be doing to get the index?

Thanks.

Hi Jason Brozek,

You can do this by using args.get_item().get_index() - the code is available in the same example that you have read.

I'm trying to do the same thing as the OP - the suggested solution doesn't work, as this is the OnClientItemShown handler, which returns null for args.get_item()

Is there any way to get the current index from the OnClientItemShown handler?

If not, it would be very useful to be able to, or to have a client-side event for the next/previous button click.

Hi Amanda,

Currently this is not possible, but I logged it in our database and we will do our best to fix that problem for the next update.

Your points were updated for bringing this problem to our attention.

Do you have any temporary solution to this?  Something we could do in Javascript?

Hi Jason,

Unfortunately no, this functionality will be added in the future.
