Adding bottom arrow/triangle to a hovered active element - javascript

I have a <ul> that is displayed inline-block and I need it to have a arrow appear when the element is active, see screenshot:
And here is what I have currently:
I already have the functionality with activating the element on hover:
.coffee
$(".solutions-items li").hover ->
$(this).addClass("solutions-items-active").siblings().removeClass "solutions-items-active"
My .html
<div class="text-center">
<ul class="solutions-items">
<li class="solutions-items-active"><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="online shop"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="mobile smartphone"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="couch commerce tablet"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="pos point of sale"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="marketplace"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="wearables"></li>
<li><img class="home-solutions-icon" src="" alt="e-commerce innovations"></li>
</ul>
</div>
And here is my css:
.scss
.solutions-items li {
display: inline-block;
}
.home-solutions-icon {
height: 7em;
padding: 0.5em;
}
.solutions-items-active {
background: $green;
}
Any ideas how I can tackle this? Thanks !

You probably just want to add a bit of CSS to do that. If your image has a fixed size, there is a CSS trick to do that :
.arrow-down {
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-top: 20px solid #f00;
}

Using two instances of Connected Carousels (jCarousel) on the same page

I am using jCarousel, specifically the Connected Carousels that you can see at https://sorgalla.com/jcarousel/examples/connected-carousels/. For an A/B testing experiment, I need to use two instances of the Connected Carousels. The first one works correctly. The second one does not. For the second instance, I click the thumbnail pictures and the big pictures do not change. I do not think the official documentation provides examples for having multiple Connected Carousels on a single page. Any hints about how to achieve it? What I have tried is to investigate how https://sorgalla.com/jcarousel/docs/reference/api.html#reload could be used. I was thinking about maybe incorporating this in my main JavaScript file:
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel('reload', {
animation: 'slow'
});
However, that is not fixing the problem for me. Any hints? Thank you.
UPDATE 1:
See the original code at https://github.com/jsor/jcarousel/blob/master/examples/connected-carousels/index.html. Now see what I am trying to do adding a second instance of the connected carousel:

What happens is that the first row of thumbnails controls both big stage pictures, the one above and the one below. The second row of thumbnails does not work. You click on it and nothing happens:
UPDATE 2:
It seems to me that what I am trying to do is a basic and common thing that the jCarousel library should be able to handle easily. Nonetheless, I am not finding anything in the examples or documentation to achieve what I want and what I am considering is to modify https://github.com/jsor/jcarousel/blob/master/examples/connected-carousels/jcarousel.connected-carousels.js so that for example instead of only
// Setup the carousels. Adjust the options for both carousels here.
var carouselStage = $('.carousel-stage').jcarousel();
var carouselNavigation = $('.carousel-navigation').jcarousel();
I can have for something like this:
// Setup the carousels. Adjust the options for both carousels here.
var carouselStage = $('.carousel-stage').jcarousel();
var carouselNavigation = $('.carousel-navigation').jcarousel();
var carouselStage1 = $('.carousel-stage1').jcarousel();
var carouselNavigation1 = $('.carousel-navigation1').jcarousel();
What do you think about what I am planning to try (carouselStage1, carouselNavigation1, etc.)? I am not finding any other way to have both instances of jCarousel working correctly.
I made it work correctly by modifying all three files at https://github.com/jsor/jcarousel/tree/master/examples/connected-carousels. I am not sure if what I did was the most elegant solution and efficient solution, since as I mentioned in my question, from my point of view what I needed was a basic and common thing that the jCarousel library should be able to handle easily. Nonetheless, I tested my solution and it works correctly. Both jCarousels are now on the same page running correctly and independently from each other. See my solution:

How to create horizontal scroll bar for a div

I have the following items.
left arrow slide1 slide2 slide3 slide4 slide5... right arrow
I want to be able to have horizontal scroll bar in my div.
I have something like this
<section id='slide-container'>
<div id='left-nav'><a href='#'><img src='images/left-nav.png'/></a></div>
<ul id='slide-list'>
<li><img src='images/slide1.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide2.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide3.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide4.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide5.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide1.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide2.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide3.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide4.png' /></li>
<li><img src='images/slide5.png' /></li>
</ul>
</section>
css
#slide-container{
width: 970px;
height: 190px;
line-height: 190px;
border:solid 1px #EEEEEE;
position: relative;
overflow: scroll;
}
I can only see the vertical scroll bar and my slides are vertically aligned. I was hoping someone here can help me to keep my slides aligned horizontally and show a scroll bar for it.
My brain is fried...
Thanks a lot!
To #slide-container add white-space: nowrap; overflow: auto;.
For #slide-list li add display: inline-block;.
Please replace your style with this
#slide-container{
width: 970px;
height: 190px;
line-height: 190px;
border:solid 1px #EEEEEE;
position: relative;
overflow-y:hidden;
overflow-x: scroll;
display:block;
}
#slide-list
{
width:1500px; /*i put this for see the scrolling/*
}

How to make combination of images responsive in twitter bootstrap?

I want the above five different images joined as this is header part of a webpage.
I used the lavalamp plugin and it works, but the webpage loses its responsiveness. On different devices, the header is not displayed in one line.
I tried to insert it in bootstrap. I inserted the lines of code of lavalamp CSS in bootstrap CSS file, shown here:
.lavaLampWithImage {
margin-top:10px;
position: relative;
height: 55px;
/* width: 734px;*/
/*width:780px;*/
}
.lavaLampWithImage li {
float: left;
list-style: none;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li.back {
background: url("res/arrow.png") no-repeat right -30px;
z-index: 0;
padding-top:59px;
padding-left:40px;
position: absolute;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li.back .left {
background: url("res/arrow.png") no-repeat top left;
height: 30px;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li a {
z-index: 20;
display: block;
float: left;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.mm {
border:0px;
}
#navbar {
/*margin-left:152px;*/
/*padding-top:60px;*/
padding-top:1px;
/*width:727px;*/
}
And the relevant HTML code part is as follows:
<div class="span6">
<div id="navbar">
<ul class="lavaLampWithImage" id="1">
<li><img class="mm" src="res/1.png" width="300" height="60" alt="home" onClick="location.href='index.html'"/></li>
<li class="current"><img class="mm" src="res/Home-n.png" width="120" height="60" alt="home" onClick="location.href='index.html'"/></li>
<li><img class="mm" src="res/blog.png" width="120" height="60" alt="contact us" onClick="location.href='http://eywaz.com/sit2/'"/></li>
<li><img class="mm" src="res/Help-n.png" width="120" height="60" alt="about us" onClick="location.href='help.html'"/></li>
<li><img class="mm" src="res/Contact_us-n.png" width="120" height="60" alt="contact us" onClick="location.href='contactus.html'"/></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
How to make it responsive?
Please reply as early as possible.
Thanks in advance.
First remove specific width and height from your image tag like bellow :
<li><img class="mm" src="res/Home-n.png" alt="home" onClick="location.href='index.html'"/></li>
Then write in css :
#media only screen and (max-width:720px){
.lavaLampWithImage li img {
max-width:100%;
}
}
and give a specific width of li element in percentage in this media query.
I am not 100% sure what you mean with responsive images. But if you just want to resize the images according to the screen width, you could try something like this:
.lavaLampWithImage {
margin:10px 0 0;
padding:0;
display:block;
position: relative;
width:100%;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li {
display:inline-block;
list-style: none;
background-color:green;
width:15.38%;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li:first-child {
width:38.45%;
}
.lavaLampWithImage li a, .lavaLampWithImage li a img {
display:block;
width:100%;
}
and the html:
<div class="span6">
<div id="navbar">
<ul class="lavaLampWithImage" id="nav1">
<li><img class="mm" src="http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/img/ban_300x60.png" alt="home" onClick="location.href='index.html'"/></li><li class="current"><img class="mm" src="http://www.motive.co.nz/glossary/img/banner-120x60.gif" alt="home" onClick="location.href='index.html'"/></li><li><img class="mm" src="http://www.motive.co.nz/glossary/img/banner-120x60.gif" alt="contact us" onClick="location.href='http://eywaz.com/sit2/'"/></li><li><img class="mm" src="http://www.motive.co.nz/glossary/img/banner-120x60.gif" alt="about us" onClick="location.href='help.html'"/></li><li><img class="mm" src="http://www.motive.co.nz/glossary/img/banner-120x60.gif" alt="contact us" onClick="location.href='contactus.html'"/></li>

jQuery - Animation flickering? (IE8)

This code does what I need it to but it has an annoying flicker as it's doing it. What it does is at the base I have an inline list contained in a "large" div (navContainer) and on top of the large div is a smaller div (smallNavContainer). As the large div below is moved left or right the the smaller div displays a different part of the list. When I'm using "margin-left" it works but there is an annoying flicker and if I use just "left" there is no flicker but div once the area that was displayed is offscreen none of the rest of the list that is moving in is displayed. Is there any way to get rid of the flicker from marginLeft? or is there a way to make the rest of the list render when I use "left".
jQuery
$('#capeBtnsPrevTab').live("click",function()
{
$("#navContainer").animate({"margin-left": "+=468"}, 1000, function(){
});
});
$('#capeBtnsNextTab').live("click",function()
{
$("#navContainer").animate({"margin-left": "-=468"}, 1000, function(){
});
});
CSS
.floatIt
{
float:left;
}
div#smallNavContainer
{
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
z-index:0;
overflow:hidden;
width: 780px;
height: 88px;
margin-left:-392px;
margin-top: 72px;
}
#navContainer
{
position: relative;
margin-left:-506px;
margin-top:0px;
}
#navlist li
{
display: inline;
list-style-type: none;
padding-right: 0px;
padding-left: 0px;
margin-right: -2px;
margin-left: -2px;
}
HTML
<img class="floatIt" id="capeBtnsPrevTab" src="btn_1.png" alt="Previous"/></a>
<div class="floatIt" id="smallNavContainer">
<div id="navContainer">
<ul id="navlist">
<li><img id="btn9" src="menu_one.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn10" src="menu_two.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn11" src="menu_three.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn1" src="menu_four.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn2" src="menu_five.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn3" src="menu_six.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn4" src="menu_seven.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn5" src="menu_eight.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn6" src="menu_nine.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn7" src="menu_ten.jpg"/></li>
<li><img id="btn8" src="menu_eleven.jpg"/></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<a><img class="floatIt" id="capeBtnsNextTab" src="UI/btnNext_n.png" alt="Next"/></a><br/>
using % instead of += or -= may help but not sure about it
I figured out what the flickering was, it was IE prematurely removing each button when the edge of it crossed off of the rendered div.

slideshow using overlapping transparent images

I have looked at the very helpful suggestions for the css for handling a bunch of exactly overlapping transparent images placed on a non-transparent image (in my case, a map but not a google-type map, just a line drawing). Could someone help me with turning that into a slideshow? I want to progressively stack images directly on top of each other so that the user sees an accumulation of visual information.
Here's a very simplified implementation: http://jsfiddle.net/r7B4n/
JavaScript:
$('#showNext').click(function(e){
e.stopPropagation();
$('#slideShow li:hidden:first').fadeIn();
});
CSS:
#slideShow {
position: relative;
width: 300px;
height: 200px;
border: 1px solid #444;
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: url(http://dummyimage.com/300x200/ccc/fff)
}
#slideShow li {
position: absolute;
left: 0; top: 0;
display: none
}
HTML:
<ul id="slideShow">
<li><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/hCTLO.png" /></li>
<li><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/Zm25l.png" /></li>
<li><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/3Rtc5.png" /></li>
<li><img src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/cg3MF.png" /></li>
</ul>
