I am using ideal image slider with its extension bullet-nav and I followed their instructions, but I feel it is using an old version of jquery or something because it is giving me errors when I have the following code:

<script src="./bower_components/ideal-image-slider/ideal-image-slider.min.js"></script>
<script src="./src/js/iis-bullet-nav.js"></script>
<script>
    var slider = new IdealImageSlider.Slider('#slider');
    slider.addBulletNav();
    slider.start();
</script>

I am currently also importing earlier jquery, angularjs, and bootstrap using bower, so I am not exactly sure if it is a conflict in one of the libraries, most likely jquery because of the error message. Also VM6628:7 is an html file, so I am not sure why it would be trying to parse that using jquery. Please help me figure out what I need to add to make this work?

Answer 1

Try wrapping your script where you instantiate the slider in a document.ready event from jquery since you are using it, so that you are calling the constructor for the slider when the DOM is loaded.

$( document ).ready(function() {
  var slider = new IdealImageSlider.Slider('#slider');
  slider.addBulletNav();
  slider.start();
});

Never mind, it was a path that seemed to be wrong to my bullet js file. Not sure why it said it was 200 loaded, but when I called it with ./bower_components, it loaded properly.
