Hi Pirvan,

The forums are a great place to look for assistance, but I can tell you that it will benefit you and other forum members tremendously if you share your code along with your post, that way other members can more effectively troubleshoot the issue and help you work toward a solution. If you aren't sure how to post code, the Markdown Cheatsheet will walk you through it. This thread is also very helpful for posting on the forum: https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/howto-guide-markdown-within-posts

[Code] - JS //Problem: User when clicking on image goes to a dead end //Solution: Create an overlay with the large image - Lightbox

var interval = undefined; $(document).ready(function () { interval = setInterval(getNext, 2000); // milliseconds $('#next').on('click', getNext); $('#prev').on('click', getPrev); });

function getNext() { var $curr = $('.slideshow img:visible'), $next = ($curr.next().length) ? $curr.next() : $('.slideshow img').first();

transition($curr, $next);

}

function getPrev() { var $curr = $('.slideshow img:visible'), $next = ($curr.prev().length) ? $curr.prev() : $('.slideshow img').last(); transition($curr, $next); }

function transition($curr, $next) { clearInterval(interval);

$next.css('z-index', 2).fadeIn('slow', function () {
    $curr.hide().css('z-index', 0);
    $next.css('z-index', 1);
});

}

var $overlay = $('<div id="overlay"></div>'); var $image = $("<img>"); var $caption = $("<p></p>");

//An image to overlay $overlay.append($image);

//A caption to overlay $overlay.append($caption);

//Add overlay $("body").append($overlay);

//Capture the click event on a link to an image $("#imageGallery a").click(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); var imageLocation = $(this).attr("href"); //Update overlay with the image linked in the link $image.attr("src", imageLocation);

//Show the overlay. $overlay.show();

//Get child's alt attribute and set caption var captionText = $(this).children("img").attr("alt"); $caption.text(captionText); });

//When overlay is clicked $overlay.click(function(){ //Hide the overlay $overlay.hide(); });
