How to dynamically change an image using javascript/jquery?

So,i have this http://jsfiddle.net/ithril/UjGhE/1/ Please check it out.

What i'm trying here is to change the main image img tag's src dynamically to the same src attribute of the image that is clicked. In short whichever image is clicked,it is displayed in the bigger window which has an id="main-photo".

I see my original code has made it this far :) Because nobody has gotten accept, I will try my best. I will again give you some pointers on general matter:

  1. Your hyperlink tags (<a>) are unclosed. This will surely generate a validation error. You can train your html skills be validating yourself regularly (sounds dirty right?)
  2. In .main-photo img {} the position:relative: is not closed with ;'
  3. In your .slider-large-image li img {}, margin: 10px was not closed!

NOTES

  • You could have added this question to your original one. I would have happily added this feature :)
  • I again corrected your code a little.
  • Is there a solid reason for using hyperlinks in your carousel list? I removed the tags, since they made things unnecessarily complicated. You should do the same with the previous and next triggers.
  • I'm not going to fix the layouting. You can figure it yourself out :)
  • Miley rocks!
  • I added default image, so when the page is loaded for the first time -- there wouldn't be a empty container.

It's really simple to do this using jQuery. When the user clicks on an <img> tag, you'll have access to this inside the callback function. Simply take $(this).attr('src') and set the source of $('#main-photo') to it like so:

$('img').click(function(){
    $('#main-photo').attr('src', $(this).attr('src'));
});

-

It looks like in your code, you're using .main-photo img, which should also work. I'm looking at it more now.

-

EDIT, after reviewing your code, you seem to have many missing </a>s along with other errors. Here is an updated and working version (minus the CSS and extra javascript):

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.slider-large-image a img').click(function() {
        $('img#mainphoto').attr('src, $(this).attr('src'));
    });
});
</script>
<div id="wrapper">
    <div class="main-photo"><img id="mainphoto" src="" /></div>
    <div class="main-slider">
        <div class="window">
            <ul class="slider-large-image">
                <li><a href=""><img src="http://images.sneakhype.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Miley-Cyrus-300x200.jpg" /></a></li>
                <li><a href=""><img src="http://wa2.www.3news.co.nz/Portals/0-Articles/185340/miley-cyrus_reuters_420.jpg?width=300" /></a></li>
                <li><a href=""><img src="http://cdn.buzznet.com/media/jjr/headlines/2009/03/miley-cyrus-ryan-seacrest.jpg" /></a></li>
                <li><a href=""><img src="http://images.smh.com.au/2010/12/29/2112265/miley_cyrus_400-300x200.jpg" /></a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <div class="slider-pager"><a href="#" id="b">&lsaquo;</a><a href="#" id="f">&rsaquo;</a></div>
    </div>
    <br class="cb" />
</div>
