JavaScript setInterval: Changing the active div based on the given period of time

I have 6 images shown below. The first div contains 4 images and the remaining 2 images are placed to the 2nd div. Using my pagination in a form of a bullet. What I`m trying to achieve is to automatically change the active div every 3secs. The only thing that comes to my mind is to use setInterval.



Here's the JavaScript Code



function showFrameIndex(index) {
var frames = document.getElementsByClassName('gall-frame');
var badges = document.getElementsByClassName('badge-item');
var i;

for (i = 0; i < frames.length; i++) {
frames[i].style.display = 'none';
}
frames[index].style.display = 'flex';

for (i = 0; i < badges.length; i++) {
badges[i].className = 'badge-item badge-item-inactive';
}
badges[index].className = 'badge-item';
}
var displayIndexFrame = 0;
showFrameIndex(displayIndexFrame);


Here's the current output



1st div
enter image description here



2nd div

  • You just want to change the div periodically? SetInterval is the correct function to do that.

  • Alternative is using setTimeout() inside your function which calls same function. Did you even try setInterval?

  • Yes. I want to change the div periodically maybe 3secs

  • var i = -1; setInterval(function() { i++; i = i < divCount ? i : 0; hideAllDivs(); showDiv(i); }, time);

  • Is the divs one below the other as in the picture or next to each other ? Are both divs visible at all times ? when you say change the active div does that mean hide one and show the other ? or put one above the other ? or scroll to the next one ?

Here's a simple example of how you can hide something and show the other, i'm sure there's better ways, now inside the callback of setInterval you'll
have to add the code to change the bullets you have, Also if you only want this to happen once, change setInterval to setTimeout






let d1 = document.querySelector('.d1');
let d2 = document.querySelector('.d2');
let timeinSec = 3;
setInterval(() => {
d1.classList.toggle('hide');
d2.classList.toggle('hide');
}, timeinSec * 1000);

.d1,
.d2 {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: dodgerblue;
}

.d2 {
background: orange;
}

.hide {
display: none;
}

<div class="d1 hide"></div>
<div class="d2"></div>
