Question

I have got “slides” div and “slidecontrols” div. slidecontrols div contains thumbnail and title of slides and it’s displaying title and raising opacity when activate one slide.

slides and slidecontrols are in array on javascript and appending to page with jquery.

I need to randomize sorting of slides every page refresh but when randomizing slides and slidecontrols there is problem appears..

think like :

slides : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

slidecontrols : 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a

after randomizing :

slides : 3, 2, 1, 5, 4

slidecontrols : 4a, 2a, 5a, 1a, 3a

but I want this sorting after randomizing :

slides : 3, 2, 1, 5, 4

slidecontrols : 3a, 2a, 1a, 5a, 4a

Answer 1

Try this, though there are some temp variabls

var a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var b = ['1a', '2a', '3a', '4a', '5a'];
var temp = [];
var i = 0;
a.sort(function() { return temp[temp.length] = (Math.random() - 0.5); });
b.sort(function() { return temp[i++]; });
