I am looking to implement horizontal scrolling using [jQuery.SerialScroll][1] (based on [jQuery.ScrollTo][2]).
I currently have a continuous horizontal scrolling working with liScroll as I discuss in [this post][3].
However, now I need discrete scrolling and I have SerialScroll working perfectly for vertical scrolling.
For some reason, if the 'axis' property is specified as 'x' nothing happens.
I can't even get the [SerialScroll example for right to left scrolling][4] to work.
I have HTML like this:
Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
I have jQuery like this, that works when axis is 'y'
jQuery(function($) {
var $pane = $('#pane');
$pane.serialScroll({
items: 'div',
next: $pane, // the container itself will get bound
duration: 2100,
force: true,
axis: 'x',
step: 1, //scroll 1 news each time
event: 'showNext' //just a random event name
});
setInterval(function() {//scroll each 12 seconds
$pane.trigger('showNext');
}, 12000);
});
Any ideas?
//Edit (answer accepted)
For those that come along, the accepted answer gets rid of the need for "serialScroll" (just need scrollTo). Heights weren't required. Be sure to change $('scroller') to something like $('mywrap') or $(target.parent().parent()). You can also set up automatic scrolling like this:
var index = 2;
setInterval(function() {//scroll each 5 seconds
index = index > $('#news ul li').length ? 1 : index;
sliderScroll($('#news ul li:nth-child(' + index + ')'));
index ++;
}, 5000);
replacing #news ul li to your appropriate selector.
