So I’m having some trouble modifying this script. I have a text box so a user can go to a certain image (In my case page). So if the user type 5 it should go to image 5.

I’ve tried numerous methods, none of which are working (they work but then my next and previous buttons aren’t working properly). I know I need to just get go to the number image in the array but the way the script is set up it seems I would have to change the current position value but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Am I over complicating this?
