Preface

The carousel component


The carousel component is a user interface element, which you'll see on a number of websites. It is essentially a slideshow that cycles through different elements, usually images. The carousel component should be contained inside a <div> element with a class name of carousel and a data-ride attribute with a value of carousel. To use the carousel component in your project, perform the following steps:

  1. The carousel component consists of an ordered list element, <ol>, which renders as small circles in the browser and indicates which slide is currently active. The markup for this element is as follows:

            <ol class="carousel-indicators"> 
                <li data-target="#carousel" data-slide-to="0" 
                class="active"></li> 
                <li data-target="#carousel" data-slide-to="1"></li> 
                <li data-target="#carousel" data-slide-to="2"></li> 
            </ol>
