Rendering the next image when clicked on the next image?

Question

When user clicked on the next image, I want the next image will take the place of current image in the carousal. Is there a way to do this?

My configuration for the jCarouselLite is as follows:

   var carousalConfig = {
            btnNext: '.corousal-nav .right-arrow',
            btnPrev: '.corousal-nav .left-arrow',
            btnGo:[],
            vertical: false,
            visible: 2,
                        start: 0,
            afterEnd: function(a) {
                             a.next().css({opacity:.35});
                             a.prev().css({opacity:1});
                       }


 $('.carousal-coontainer').jCarouselLite(carousalConfig);

html for the same

<div class="carousal-coontainer">
    <ul>
        <li><img src="image/1.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="image/2.jpg"></li>
        <li><img src="image/3.jpg"></li>
    </ul>
</div>
<div>
    <div class="carousal_left_arrow"> <span class="left-arrow"> </span></div>
    <div class="carousal_right_arrow"> <span class="right-arrow"></span> </div>
</div>

jCarouselLite has an event called 'go' where you can specify the slide you want to go to, or (if used without a number) will go to the next slide. In slider options we can add a class to elements that needs to receive click events and then attach a click event to li elements after initialization.

As a side note: jCarouselLite is old and can not work with jQuery 3.0+. There are many free alternatives that provide the same functionality

• Slick - jQuery plugin
• Glide.js - dependency-free
• Flickty - jQuery plugin or dependency-free

var carousalConfig = {
  btnNext: ".default .next",
  btnPrev: ".default .prev",
  btnGo: [],
  visible: 2,
  start: 0,
  afterEnd: function(a) {
  // add a class to next element so we can attach click events
    a.next().css({
      opacity: .50
    }).addClass("blurred");
    
    // remove class to remove event attachment
    a.prev().css({
      opacity: 1
    }).removeClass("blurred");
  }
};

$(document).ready(function() {
  let carousel = $('.custom-container');
  carousel.jCarouselLite(carousalConfig);
  // Carousel is initatied so attach click event handler to `.blurred` class
  carousel.on("click", ".blurred", function() {
    carousel.trigger('go');
  })
});
