issues with slide show in JavaScript

I have this issues where the images can't display or javascript code is not working
The console show this
Uncaught ReferenceError: settimeout is not defined
at changeimage (carousel2.html:22)
The output is hello
var i = 0;
var images = [];
var time = 4000;
images[0] = 'images/cake.jpg';
images[1] = 'images/cake1.jpg';
images[2] = 'images/cake2.jpg';
images[3] = 'images/cake3.jpg';
images[4] = 'images/cake4.jpg';
function changeimage() {
document.src = images[1];
if (i < images.length - 1) {
i++;
} else {
i = 0;
}
settimeout("changeimage()", time);
}
window.onload = changeimage;
<title>carouse slide button</title>
<P>hello</P>

Issues in your code
Misspelled setTimeout
missing image tag
using images[1] over and over
You want to study this
const time = 4000;
const images = [
"https://picsum.photos/id/231/200/300",
"https://picsum.photos/id/232/200/300",
"https://picsum.photos/id/233/200/300",
"https://picsum.photos/id/234/200/300",
"https://picsum.photos/id/235/200/300"
];
let cnt = 0;
const changeImage = function() {
document.getElementById("img1").src = images[cnt];
cnt++;
if (cnt >= images.length) cnt = 0;
};
window.addEventListener("load", function() { // when the page loads
setInterval(changeImage, time); // call every 4 seconds
changeImage(); // but call it now too so we do not have to wait
});
<img id="img1" />

The function settimeout is not correctly written. Should be:
setTimeout(changeimage, time);

setInterval into Infinity loops

Her is my new code with setinternal of 4 images. However, I am trying to have an infinite loops of the same images. Can you help me to understands how to create a setInterval loop.
<script type="text/javascript" >
var OpenWindow = window.open("","","top=100, left=400,resizable=yes,height=550,width=550,menubar=yes,location=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes");
var imgURLS = ['Oculus.jpg', 'future-vr.jpg', 'morpheus.jpg', 'samsungvr.jpg'];
var imgIndex = 0;
var timer = setInterval(function() {
for (var imgIndex = 0; j < imgURLS.length; j++)
{
for (var imgIndex = 0; i < imgURLS.length; i++)
{
clearInterval(timer);
} else {
OpenWindow.document.write("<div class='css-slideshow'>");
OpenWindow.document.write("<figure>");
OpenWindow.document.write('<img src ="' + imgURLS[imgIndex++] + '">');
OpenWindow.document.write("</figure>");
OpenWindow.document.write("</div>");
}
}, 3000);
</script>
I just figure out how to make longer loops. However, my images are showing broke?
<script type="text/javascript" >
var OpenWindow = window.open("","","top=100, left=400,resizable=yes,height=550,width=550,menubar=yes,location=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes");
var imgURLS = ['Oculus.jpg', 'future-vr.jpg', 'morpheus.jpg', 'samsungvr.jpg'];
var imgIndex = 0;
var i = setInterval(function() {
imgIndex++;
if(imgIndex === 20) {
clearInterval(i);
} else {
OpenWindow.document.write("<div class='images-1'>");
OpenWindow.document.write('<img src ="' + imgURLS.length + '">');
OpenWindow.document.write("</div>");
}
}, 3000);
</script>
I figure out why the image were broke. it was missing this imgURLS[imgIndex]
new code is:
OpenWindow.document.write('<img src ="' + imgURLS[imgIndex] + '">');
OpenWindow.document.write('<img src ="' + imgURLS.length + '">');

Here's a simple way with setTimeout.
1) Add an id to your containing div and target it.
var image = document.querySelector('#css-slideshow img');
2) Use setTimeout to repeatedly call the same loop function with increments of count. If count equals the length of the images array, set it to zero.
function carousel() {
var timer, count = 0;
var loop = function loop(count) {
if (count === imgURLS.length) count = 0;
image.src = imgURLS[count];
timer = setTimeout(loop, 2000, ++count);
}
loop(count);
}
carousel();

Inserting incremental values into loop array

Right now I am animating an image by stringing multiple images together with setInterval(showNextSlide, 100); and it works really well.
The only thing that I'm running into problems with is adding values dynamically into var slides = [src, ] the while loop just loads the final image.
Also the way the images are saved the increment moves to the next zero so 01009 converts to 01010 whenever I use my loop it will convert to 010010 note the extra zero at the end.
Javascript
window.onload = function() {
var img = 0
while (img < 15) {
img++;
}
var src = 'assets/images/earth/Sequence%0100' + img + '.jpg.';
var slides = [src, ],
index = 0,
timer = 0;
// Show the first slide
showNextSlide();
// Show "next" slide every five seconds
timer = setInterval(showNextSlide, 100);
// The function we call to show the "next" slide
function showNextSlide() {
if (index >= slides.length) {
index = 0;
}
document.getElementById('earth').src = slides[index++];
}
};
JsFiddle

try this:It will keep on changing the image src of earth based on the index value.
Update based on JEES Comment.
<script>
window.onload = function() {
var i = 0
var slides = [];
while (i < 200) {
if(i <= 9){ img= '0100' + i++; }
else if(i <= 99){ img= '010' + i++; }
else{ img= '01' + i++; }
var src = 'assets/images/earth/Sequence%' + img + '.jpg';
slides.push(src);
}
console.log(slides);
index = 0,
timer = 0;
// Show the first slide
showNextSlide();
// Show "next" slide every five seconds
timer = setInterval(showNextSlide, 100);
// The function we call to show the "next" slide
function showNextSlide() {
if (index >= slides.length) {
index = 0;
}
document.getElementById('earth').src = slides[index++];
}
};
</script>
<img src="" id="earth">

Please Try It :
var img = 0;
var slides = new Array();
while (img < 5) {
img++;
var src = 'assets/images/earth/Sequence%0100' + img + '.jpg';
slides.push(src);
}

This is part of the answer and it will fix it when img value is 9 or 99 since he has 200 images, if images number > 1000 he'd need another one when img value 999.. please tell me if i should delete this answer:
UPDATED:
var img = 0;
while(img < 200) {
if (img < 10) { imgURL = '0100' + img; }
else if (img < 100) { imgURL = '010' + img;}
else { imgURL = '01' + img; }
slides.push('assets/images/earth/Sequence%' + imgURL + '.jpg');
img++;
}
check this Fiddle to see it in action..

How do you use increments?

I am not sure how to use increments.
through a function. i can't get the paragraph to show the array words
<p id= "demo"
var Array = ["hello", "goodbye"];
var mimg = document.getElementById(imageArray[0]);
mimg.setAttribute('src', [index]);
//var ArrayIndex = 0;
function change() {
("src", Array[Index]);
imageIndex++;
if (Index >= Array.length) {
Index = 0;
}
}

Don't forget to use your browser's console, read this article Using Your Browser to Diagnose JavaScript Errors.
Don't use setattribute function, use src attribute.
var myImage = document.getElementById("mainImage");
var imageArray = ["http://lorempixel.com/400/200/sports/1/", "http://lorempixel.com/400/200/sports/2/", "http://lorempixel.com/400/200/sports/3/", "http://lorempixel.com/400/200/sports/4/"];
myImage.src = imageArray[0];
var imageIndex = 0;
function changeImage() {
myImage.src = imageArray[imageIndex];
imageIndex++;
if (imageIndex >= imageArray.length)
imageIndex = 0;
}
window.onload = function() {
setInterval(function() {
changeImage();
}, 1000);
};
<img id="mainImage" />

var myImage = document.getElementById("mainImage");
var imageArray = ["images/1.png","images/2.png","images/3.png","images/4.png"];
var mimg=document.getElementById(imageArray[0]);
mimg.setAttribute('src',photos[index]);
You aren't showing your relevant HTML, but I notice in this section you are getting an element with ID "images/1.png" and setting the src of that element to the value of something in photos[index]. You haven't shown how the photos array is loaded. Do you actually have an element with an ID "images/1.png"?
In your function, you set the src of the mainImage to the values in imageArray rather than the values in the photo array. That may be valid, but since that is different than what you did outside the function, I want to make sure that was intended.

I think you are talking about such solution:
var imageArr=["images/1.png", "images/2.png", "images/3.png", "images/4.png"];
$('#button'). on('click',function(){
var index=(Math.random(0,imageArr.length)*10)
$('#img').attr('src',imageArr[index])
});
Again you question is not clear, thus I think this will help you to get direction.

This should be solution if you are using plain JavaScript
var myImage = document.getElementById("mainImage"),
imageArray = ["images/1.png", "images/2.png", "images/3.png", "images/4.png"],
imageArrayIndex = 0;
myImage.src = imageArray[imageArrayIndex++];
function changeImage () {
myImage.src = imageArray[imageArrayIndex++];
imageArrayIndex = imageArrayIndex >= imageArray.length ? 0 : imageArrayIndex;
}
Make sure that your element is defined as "img".

Here's a solution which sets a data-index attribute on the image to keep track of the selected index. This solution is compatible with down to IE8 and does not use the Jquery library. Run the code snippet below for a test (click the image to go to the next one).
var mimg = document.getElementById('main-image'),
simg = document.getElementById('sec-image')
imgArr = [
'http://placehold.it/50x50/00AAAA',
'http://placehold.it/50x50/AAAA00',
'http://placehold.it/50x50/AA00AA',
];
var loopImages = function(element, imgArray, startAt) {
var index = element.getAttribute('data-index'),
newIndex = 0;
if (!index)
newIndex = ((startAt && startAt < imgArr.length-1) || 0) + 1;
else if (index < imgArr.length-1)
newIndex = parseInt(index) + 1;
element.setAttribute('data-index', newIndex);
element.src = imgArr[newIndex];
};
mimg.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
loopImages(e.target || e.srcElement, imgArr);
});
setInterval(function() {
loopImages(simg, imgArr);
}, 500);
<p>Preview (click to change)</p>
<img id="main-image" src="http://placehold.it/50x50/00AAAA">
<br>
<p>Preview with interval</p>
<img id="sec-image" src="http://placehold.it/50x50/00AAAA">

Without using jquery, how to cycle through images to make a simple slideshow

You have a div, with 3 images in it.
How to create a simple slideshow that cycles through the images, and displays each image for 5 seconds and goes back to the first image when done and continues looping.
Without using jquery or any other framework.

(function () {
var imgs = document.getElementById('your_div').getElementsByTagName('img'),
index = 0;
imgs[0].style.display = 'block';
setInterval(function () {
imgs[index].style.display = 'none';
index = (index + 1) % imgs.length;
imgs[index].style.display = 'block';
}, 5000);
}());
Example HTML: http://jsfiddle.net/Zq7KB/1/
Edit: Saw a more elegant example above that used .length.

You can use setInterval to set up the timed callback, and set the src of an img element:
window.onload = function() {
var slides = [ "path_to_image_one",
"path_to_image_two",
"path_to_image_three" // ...
],
index = 0,
timer = 0;
// Show the first slide
showNextSlide();
// Show "next" slide every five seconds
timer = setInterval(showNextSlide, 5000);
// The function we call to show the "next" slide
function showNextSlide() {
if (index >= slides.length) {
index = 0;
}
document.getElementById('theImage').src = slides[index++];
}
};
...where your markup for the image is:
<img id="theImage" src="path_to_initial_placeholder">
Note that I've stored the timer handle in timer but not used it. This is just because you might use it to cancel the timer if you need to stop the slideshow.
Update: Just saw that you want to get the images from a div somewhere (whereas above I've supplied the paths in the code itself). Simple enough to create slides dynamically; revised edition of the above that grabs the images that are direct children of the div with the ID "theDiv":
window.onload = function() {
var slides = [],
index = 0,
timer = 0,
node;
// Get the slides
for (node = document.getElementById('theDiv').childNodes;
node;
node = node.nextSibling) {
if (node.nodeType == 1 && node.tagName == "IMG") {
slides.push(node.src);
}
}
// Show the first slide
showNextSlide();
// Show "next" slide every five seconds
timer = setInterval(showNextSlide, 5000);
// The function we call to show the "next" slide
function showNextSlide() {
if (index >= slides.length) {
index = 0;
}
document.getElementById('theImage').src = slides[index++];
}
};

Well you'd have to get a handle for the <div> first, so if it has an "id" value:
var theDiv = document.getElementById("imgContainer");
Now you just have to set up a timer to cycle through the images:
(function(div, sleep) {
var idx = 0;
var imgs = div.getElementsByTagName('img');
function showOne() {
for (var i = 0; i < imgs.length; ++i)
imgs[i].style.display = 'none';
imgs[idx].style.display = '';
idx = (idx + 1) % imgs.length;
setTimeout(showOne, sleep);
}
showOne();
})(theDiv, 5000);

var image = new Array('/img/1.jpg', '/img/2.jpg', '/img/3.jpg');
setTimeout("show_next()",5000);
function show_next()
{
var container = document.getElementById('image_container');
container.innerHTML = "<img src='" + image[i] + "' />";
if(i==2) { i = 1; }else { i = i + 1; }
}

I thought this was a nice simple answer, but there were a couple of errors.
setInterval rather than setTimeout and the initial index was not set. I also amended to load first image immediately.
var image = new Array('imgs/18/P1050294-XL.jpg', 'imgs/18/P1050293-XL.jpg', 'imgs/18/P1040984-XL.jpg', 'imgs/18/P1040983-XL.jpg', 'imgs/18/P1040982-XL.jpg');
var path = 'mypath';
document.getElementById('slideShow').innerHTML = "<img width='600px' src='" + path + image[0] + "' />" // Load First image
var i = 1; // Set counter to second image, for first use of loop
setInterval("show_next(path)",5000);
function show_next(path)
{
var container = document.getElementById('slideShow');
container.innerHTML = "<img width='600px' src='" + path + image[i] + "' />";
if(i==4) { i = 0; } else { i = i + 1; }
}
