1. $(function() {
2.       $('#next').click(function() {
3.             var active = $('li.active');
4.             active.removeClass('active').fadeOut('slow');
5.             active = active.next();
6.             if (active.length == 0) {
7.                   active = $('li:first');
8.             }
9.             active.addClass('active').fadeIn('slow');

1. $(document).ready(function() {
2.     $('#next').click(function() {
3.         $('li:hidden:first').fadeIn('slow'); //fade in the first hidden 'li' element
4.     });
5.    
6.     $('#previous').click(function() { // previous 'btn' clicked
7.         $('li:visible:last').fadeOut('slow'); // find the last visible element, fade out.
8.     });
9. });
