At a road block with scroll section for my featured items on site

On my site I have a scroll section that will display watches and allow you to scroll on the section similar to what rolex does on their homepage. I created div container for the section and added a wrapper container that I was using to control the items. I also was trying to add arrows that can be used as an option to scroll just like how rolex does on theirs. Nothing is working. The items are there but the functionality isnt. Take a look at Rolex website and scroll down to their watches section on the home page. I want to do exactly that.
I tried adding JavaScript to make it functional but that did nothing for me. I even added a console.log() to see if anything would print in the browser console and got nothing. Please help.
// Select the left and right arrow buttons
const leftButton = document.querySelector('.arrow-button.left');
const rightButton = document.querySelector('.arrow-button.right');
// Select the watch items wrapper element
const watchItemsWrapper = document.querySelector('.watch-items-wrapper');
// Scroll the watch items wrapper element to the left or right when the arrow buttons are clicked
leftButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
watchItemsWrapper.scrollBy({
left: watchItemsWrapper.scrollLeft - 200, // Scroll 200 pixels to the left
behavior: 'smooth' // Use a smooth scroll transition
});
});
rightButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
watchItemsWrapper.scrollBy({
left: watchItemsWrapper.scrollLeft + 200, // Scroll 200 pixels to the right
behavior: 'smooth' // Use a smooth scroll transition
});
});

<!-- End of Watch Reel -->

Add overflow: scroll to your .watch-items-wrapper:
.watch-items-wrapper {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: nowrap;
overflow: scroll;
}
You can remove the overflow: scroll; from your .watch-reel-container, it's not needed. If you want the container to span full width then add overflow: hidden to your .watch-reel-container.
Next adjust both your scroll functions as such:
Left:
leftButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
watchItemsWrapper.scrollBy({
left: -200,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
});
Right:
rightButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
watchItemsWrapper.scrollBy({
left: 200,
behavior: 'smooth'
});
});
I think this will give you the functionality you're looking for.
If you'd like to hide the scrollbar but keep the functionality, check our this doc from w3schools.
I hope this helps!

HTML Select item show div and post problem

I am confused. I want two products to be selected. These products will be open by clicking the button. The selection will be made on the screen that opens. And the selected product will replace the button clicked.
I can show the products by clicking the button. I even got the result I wanted as text with jquery. But I used <select> <option> for this. There will be no drop-down list and only one will be selected. The selected image will replace the clicked area. I couldn't :(

JSFIDDLE example of my codes: https://jsfiddle.net/j5fqhat6/

You can add data attribute to your kutu div this will help us to identify from where click event has been occurred .So, whenever your gosterButonu is been clicked you can use this data-id to add selected images text to your gosterButonu div.
Demo Code :
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".gosterButonu, .gosterButonu img").click(function(event) {
var butonAdi = $(this).attr('id');
console.log(butonAdi)
//if on click of button you want to remove active class
// $("div[data-id="+butonAdi+"]").find("li").removeClass("active")
$("div[data-id=" + butonAdi + "]").fadeIn(300);
});
$(".kapatButonu").click(function() {
var data_id = $(this).closest(".kutu").data("id");
$("#" + data_id).text($(this).closest(".icKutu").find("li.active").text())
$(".kutu").fadeOut(200);
});
$(".kutu").click(function() {
$(".kutu").fadeOut(200);
});
$(".icKutu").click(function() {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
});
//on click of li
$(".images li").click(function() {
//remove active class from other lis
$(this).closest(".images").find("li").not(this).removeClass("active")
//add active class to li which is clicked
$(this).addClass("active");
})
});

Hide() with fadeIn()/fadeOut()

I'm trying to do a fade in and fade out jquery. However, I'm having some issues.
I hide the div when the page loads, but when I hover over it to fade it in, it fades in for a second then disappears. I then have to hover out then hover back in.
My Jquery:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').hide();
$('#showdsl6').hover(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').fadeIn();
}, function(){
$('#hidedsl6').fadeOut();
});
$('#showfttn10').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn15').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn25').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn50').hover(function(){
});
});
My HTML:
<h3 class="DSLLocation" id="showdsl6">DSL 6</h3>
<button class="btn btnblue" id="hidedsl6" type="button">Order Now!</button>

Just add preventDefault to stop the back and forth fade
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').hide();
$('#showdsl6').hover(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').fadeIn();
}, function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$('#hidedsl6').fadeOut();
});
$('#showfttn10').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn15').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn25').hover(function(){
});
$('#showfttn50').hover(function(){
});
});

Why use jQuery when it can be done with CSS
.products{
display:table;
table-layout:fixed;
width: 100%;
}
.option{
display: table-cell;
position: relative;
text-align: center;
padding: 24px;
background: #C0FFEE;
}
.option button{
position: absolute;
top: 0; left: 0;
width: 100%; height: 100%;
border: 0;
cursor: pointer;
background: #1CEA6E;
transition: 0.3s; -webkit-transition: 0.3s;
opacity: 0;
visibility: hidden;
}
.option:hover button{
opacity: 1;
visibility: visible;
}
<div class="products">
<div class="option">
<h3>DSL 6</h3>
<button>ORDER NOW!</button>
</div>
<div class="option">
<h3>DSL 30</h3>
<button>ORDER NOW!</button>
</div>
<div class="option">
<h3>SUPER DSL 50</h3>
<button>ORDER NOW!</button>
</div>
</div>

$(document).ready(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').hide();
$('#showdsl6').hover(function(){
$('#hidedsl6').fadeIn();});
});

Changing Z-Index Of Another Element On Click

in the code below I am trying to figure out how can I change "content"s z-index relatively to clicked "menu-item". I managed how to do this for menu items, but cannot find solution for the rest. In simple words I need to click #m1 and set Z-Index 10 for #c1 and so on.
HTML
<div id="content" class="container">
<div id="c1" class="content">content1</div>
<div id="c2" class="content">content2</div>
<div id="c3" class="content">content3</div>
<div id="c4" class="content">content4</div>
</div>
<div id="menu" class="container">
<div id="m1" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m2" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m3" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m4" class="menu-item"></div>
</div>
CSS
/*global*/
.container{
position: absolute;
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
}
/*content*/
.content{
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 75%;
right: 0;
background: #354458;
text-align: center;
color: #fff;
line-height: 95px;
}
/*menu*/
.menu-item{
position: absolute;
width: 25%;
height: 100%;
background: green;
cursor: pointer;
transition: left 200ms ease-in-out;
}
.menu-item.closed{
left: 0 !important;
}
#m1{
left:0;
background: #DB3340;
}
#m2{
left: 25%;
background: #E8B71A;
}
#m3{
left: 50%;
background: #1FDA9A;
}
#m4{
left: 75%;
background: #28ABE3;
}
JQuery
$(document).ready(function(){
var menu = $('.menu-item');
menu.click(function(){
$(this).siblings(menu).css('z-index', "initial");
$(this).css('z-index', 11);
});
menu.click(function(){
menu.toggleClass("closed");
});
});
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/8a3vqy5v/

No need to register multiple click events for the same element, they serve for your case same as a single binding.
You can hide and show the background content based on the menu index as follows within the click event, you can check the code snippet for full code:
var index = $(this).index();
$('.content').hide();
$('.content').eq(index).show();
Snippet :
$(document).ready(function(){
var menu = $('.menu-item');
menu.click(function(){
$(this).siblings(menu).css('z-index', "initial");
$(this).css('z-index', 11);
menu.toggleClass("closed");
var index = $(this).index();
$('.content').hide();
$('.content').eq(index).show();
});
});
/*global*/
.container{
position: absolute;
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
}
/*content*/
.content{
position: absolute;
height: 100%;
width: 75%;
right: 0;
background: #354458;
text-align: center;
color: #fff;
line-height: 95px;
}
/*menu*/
.menu-item{
position: absolute;
width: 25%;
height: 100%;
background: green;
cursor: pointer;
transition: left 200ms ease-in-out;
}
.menu-item.closed{
left: 0 !important;
}
#m1{
left:0;
background: #DB3340;
}
#m2{
left: 25%;
background: #E8B71A;
}
#m3{
left: 50%;
background: #1FDA9A;
}
#m4{
left: 75%;
background: #28ABE3;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="content" class="container">
<div id="c1" class="content">content1</div>
<div id="c2" class="content">content2</div>
<div id="c3" class="content">content3</div>
<div id="c4" class="content">content4</div>
</div>
<div id="menu" class="container">
<div id="m1" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m2" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m3" class="menu-item"></div>
<div id="m4" class="menu-item"></div>
</div>

You could get the index of the clicked .menu-item element and then select the corresponding .content element using the index with the .eq() method:
Updated Example
var $menu = $('.menu-item');
$menu.click(function() {
$(this).css('z-index', 11).siblings($menu).add('.content').css('z-index', '');
if (!$(this).hasClass('closed')) {
$('.content').eq($(this).index()).css('z-index', 10);
}
$menu.toggleClass("closed");
});
But since that creates a weird transition bug, you could use the code from this example instead. It essentially listens to the transitionend event.

if there is a fixed number of elements (ie: 4) you could simply throw 4 rules, one for each :
$('#m1').click(function() {
$('.content').css('z-index', '');
$('#c1').css('z-index', '11');
});
$('#m2').click(function() {
$('.content').css('z-index', '');
$('#c2').css('z-index', '11');
});
$('#m3').click(function() {
$('.content').css('z-index', '');
$('#c3').css('z-index', '11');
});
$('#m4').click(function() {
$('.content').css('z-index', '');
$('#c4').css('z-index', '11');
});
if you want a single rule that would apply to any #mx - #cx couple, you could also try to get the id of the element clicked as a string and manipulate the string in order to replace the first letter with a 'c'

Slideshow using background images with navigation and captions

I have a div which currently has a static background image, and I need to create a slideshow of background images and text for this div. I would like to fade the background images and the caption text in and out. Does anyone know of a good way to do this using jQuery? My knowledge of JavaScript and jQuery is very limited. I tried to use some ready-made plugins as the Backstretch, Responsiveslides but I could not understand them enough and edit them for my use.
Here is my current code: http://jsfiddle.net/1zdyh3wo/

Here a visual aid, how I would like the result to be:
Desktop version:
Mobile version:

To keep things really simple:
Make a "wrapper" div for the entire slider
Make an individual "wrapper" div for each individual slide
Put the slider navigation outside of of the individual slides (I put it outside of the slider altogether, but that's your choice based on your desired positioning).
Make a function that will do all the transitions
Here's an example HTML structure, based on yours
<div id="slider">
<div class="content bg-slider active">
<div class="wrapper">
<h1 class="sectionTitle">Image title 1</h1>
<div class="separator white"></div>
<h2 class="sectionDescription">This is the description of the first image. Wanna know more? Click here.</h2>

Here's the functional JavaScript, with comments.
$(document).ready(function(){
// Hide all slides, re-show first:
$(".bg-slider").hide()
$(".bg-slider:first-child").show();
// Prev button click
$(".nav-arrows.prev").click(function(){
slidePrev();
})
// Next button click
$(".nav-arrows.next").click(function(){
slideNext();
})
// "Dots" click
$(".nav-dots div").click(function(){
slideTo($(this).index());
})
});
// "Previous" function must conclude if we are at the FIRST slide
function slidePrev() {
if ($("#slider .active").index() == 0) {
slideTo($("#slider .bg-slider").length - 1);
}
else {
slideTo($("#slider .active").index() - 1);
}
}
// "Next" function must conclude if we are at the LAST slide
function slideNext() {
if ($("#slider .active").index() == $("#slider .bg-slider").length - 1) {
slideTo(0);
}
else {
slideTo($("#slider .active").index() + 1);
}
}
// Slide To will be called for every slide change. This makes it easy to change the animation, or do what you want during the transition.
function slideTo(slide) {
$("#slider .active").fadeOut().removeClass("active");
$("#slider .bg-slider").eq(slide).fadeIn().addClass("active");
$(".nav-dots .current").removeClass("current");
$(".nav-dots div").eq(slide).addClass("current");
}
