I'm currently working with a jQuery gallery that showcases a large image in the center, flanked by smaller images on each side (). I want to enhance it with some special effects. The gallery takes a set of images within a container div with the class "gallery" and uses them to create the gallery display. Since the images are generated dynamically, I can't assign individual classes or IDs to them. As a result, I'm having trouble figuring out how to use jQuery to target the central image as it transitions into view.
My goal is to apply a box-shadow effect to the middle image as it moves into the center, giving the illusion of it popping out of the screen, and then remove the shadow once it returns to its original position. While I could easily apply the same shadow to all images using jQuery, that's not the desired outcome and could be done without jQuery altogether.
If you have any creative ideas or suggestions, I would greatly appreciate them.
