title: What is the name of this interface element? Indicates position of slide / page
body: <p>I'm building a user interface and I'm using 'dots' to indicate how many elements there are. They can be used for navigation, but that is optional. I would like to describe this element, but I don't know how this type of element is called. 'Dots or bullets' sound weird and it is more than 'navigation' only.</p>
  
  <p>I've included some examples of this type of user interface element (in other applications). This is a carousel:

  <p>This is a magazine app on an iPad:</p>

  <p>Another app (mobile website?)</p>

  <p><strong>How is this element called?</strong> I'm looking for the right name for the Technical Design Document / other documentation. I'm programming it in JavaScript.</p>
