Jquery fading slideshow if statement <p>HI I need to create a if statement for my slide show, if there is only one image I don't want the slideshow to be active;</p> <p>Javascript:</p> <pre><code> &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; function slideSwitch() { var $active = $('#slideshow IMG.active'); if ( $active.length == 0 ) $active = $('#slideshow IMG:last'); // use this to pull the images in the order they appear in the markup var $next = $active.next().length ? $active.next() : $('#slideshow IMG:first'); // uncomment the 3 lines below to pull the images in random order // var $sibs = $active.siblings(); // var rndNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * $sibs.length ); // var $next = $( $sibs[ rndNum ] ); $active.addClass('last-active'); $next.css({opacity: 0.0}) .addClass('active') .animate({opacity: 1.0}, 1000, function() { $active.removeClass('active last-active'); }); } $(function() { setInterval( "slideSwitch()", 5000 ); }); &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>html:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id="slideshow"&gt; &lt;img src="image1.jpg" class="active" /&gt; </code></pre> <p></p> <p>JS is not really my strong suit, any help would be great!</p>
