JQuery - a fully featured content slider

Question

I have a content area that goes through a div and shows the content.

I'm having trouble displaying the original content, unfortunately, it waits for 5000 milliseconds before starting the first content area.

Any place is an easy way to make it display the start area, then move on to the next area and execute them for 5,000 milliseconds.

Js

Model.FeatureBar = { current:0, items:{}, init: function init(options){ var me = this; me.triggers = [] me.slides = [] this.container = jQuery('#features'); jQuery('.feature').each(function(i){ me.triggers[i] = {url: jQuery(this).children('.feature-title a').href, title: jQuery(this).children('.feature-title'),description:jQuery(this).children('.feature-description')} me.slides[i] = {image: jQuery(this).children('.feature-image')} }); for(var i in this.slides){ this.slides[i].image.hide(); this.triggers[i].description.hide(); } setInterval(function(){Model.FeatureBar.next()},5000); }, next: function next(){ var i = (this.current+1 < this.triggers.length) ? this.current+1 : 0; this.goToItem(i); }, previous: function previous(){ var i = (this.current-1 > 1) ? this.current-1 : this.triggers.length; this.goToItem(i); }, goToItem: function goToItem(i){ if(!this.slides[i]) throw 'Slide out of range'; this.triggers[this.current].description.slideUp(); this.triggers[i].description.slideDown(); this.slides[this.current].image.hide(); this.slides[i].image.show(); this.current = i; }, 

}

HTML

In your init function, when setting the interval, just call right away, like this:

 setInterval(function(){Model.FeatureBar.next()},5000); Model.FeatureBar.next(); 

In addition, if you call a function without any parameters, you can only pass this function, there is no need for an anonymous method that wraps it, for example:

 setInterval(Model.FeatureBar.next,5000); Model.FeatureBar.next();
