Let's talk about how jquery can achieve seamless carousel effects

Seamless carousel images are a very popular display method in web design now, which can bring a good visual experience to users. jQuery is a very commonly used JavaScript library that can help us easily implement seamless carousels.

1. HTML structure

First you need to create a ul list to display pictures, and there is a corresponding picture inside each li tag.

<div class="slider">
  <ul>
    <li><img src="image1.jpg"></li>
    <li><img src="image2.jpg"></li>
    <li><img src="image3.jpg"></li>
    <li><img src="image4.jpg"></li>
  </ul>
</div>

This is the basic HTML structure. Next we need to add CSS styles to make it look more beautiful.

2. CSS Style

In the CSS file, we need to set the style of ul to display:flex so that the image is displayed in one line. We also need to set the width and height of each li so that all pictures are arranged on the same line. At the same time, we also need to add a mask layer to the outer layer of ul to hide the overflow of the image.

.slider{
  overflow:hidden;
  position:relative;
}
ul{
  display:flex;
  width:400%;
  position:relative;
  left:0;
  margin:0;
  padding:0;
  transition:left 1s;
}
li{
  flex-basis:25%;
  margin:0;
  padding:0;
}

The flex-basis attribute here is used to set the proportion of the width of each li tag to the entire ul list.

3. JavaScript implementation

In the JS file, we need to use jQuery to control the image carousel. First, we need to set a timer to control the carousel interval. Then, add an animation to the timer to decrement the left value of all pictures by a value, causing the entire ul list to move to the left by the width of the picture. When the last picture is reached, it needs to jump to the first picture immediately, that is, adjust the left value of the entire ul list to 0.

$(document).ready(function(){
  var timer=setInterval(autoplay,3000);
  function autoplay(){
    var imgWidth=$("li").width();
    $("ul").animate({left:"-="+imgWidth},1000,function(){
      var firstImg=$("li:first-child");
      $("ul").append(firstImg);
      $("ul").css("left",0);
    });
  }
})

In this code, first we get the width of each image through jQuery's width() method, and then use the animate() method to achieve the animation effect. We set the left value of the ul list minus an image width, then insert the first li tag to the end of the ul list in the callback function, and then adjust the left value of the entire ul list to 0 to achieve a seamless carousel effect.

4. Summary

Through the above steps, we can use jQuery to implement a simple seamless carousel image. Of course, there are many other implementation methods, such as using CSS3 animations or other JavaScript frameworks. However, no matter which method is used, the core of realizing a seamless carousel is to use JS to control the animation of picture movement and handle the logical issues when the carousel reaches the last picture.
