Autorunning Css-change

I know there are solutions out there to solve that; but I want to get this done on my 'own' (you got to know your limitations: Hello stackoverflow) path. So I want a sort of carous

Solution 1:

You can use .clearQueue() to empty the queue array at .hover(), .stop() to stop animation at li element, .slice() to reset the queue from current index of functions in queue array; .promise(), .then() to perform task when all animations completed

$(document).ready(function() {
  var ul = $("ul").data("index", 0)
  , li = $("li", ul)
    // set duration
  , d = 1200// create `q` array of functions to call// in sequential order, where `el` is current `li` element
  , q = $.map(li, function(el, index) {
          returnfunction(next) {
            // set `ul` `data-index` to current `li` index:`q` function index 
            ul.data("index", index)
            // do stuff, call next function in `q` queue
            .find(el).fadeIn(d).delay(d).fadeOut(d, next);
          }
        });
  ul.hover(
    // handle at `ul` `mouseenter` eventfunction() {
    // clear `ul` queue; clear, stop `li` animation queue
    ul.clearQueue("_fx").find(li).stop(true);
  }
    // handle at `ul` `mouseleave` event
  , function() {
      // reset `ul` queue at current `li` using `index`// set at last function called in queue
      ul.queue("_fx", q.slice(ul.data().index)).dequeue("_fx");
  })
  .delay(d, "_fx").queue("_fx", q).dequeue("_fx").promise("_fx")
  .then(function() {
    // do stuff when `ul` queue completes   
    $(this).hide(function(){
      alert("slideshow complete");
    })
  })
});

ul {
  border: 1px solid blue;
}
ul:hover {
  cursor: wait;
  border: 2px solid sienna;
}
ulli {
  display: none;
}

Solution 2:

I would recommend you to put this in a function, set a global variable that you will set with setTimeout(function(){yourFunctionName();}, givenTime) at the end of your function.

That way your function is called at regular interval, and you can call a clearTimeout(yourTimeoutGlobalVariable); on event hover.

PS: I didn't wrote the whole script so you can do it your "own way", tell me if you're still stuck.
