<ul>
<li data-ng-repeat="image in images" data-ng-click="toggle = !toggle" data-ng-init="toggle=false">
<img data-ng-class="{'active' : toggle}" src="" />
</li>
</ul>
CSS for 'active' class is from bootstrap.
So toggling works, which is almost where I want it; I would like it similar to active states in navigation links, except in my example it's dealing with images so need to worry about url strings, etc.
I tried emulating this example found here to no avail (I tried the same logic for images): ng-class to highlight active menu item based on ng-repeat. AngularJS
If someone could point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. :D
You can try it in following way:
What i would do in your situation is define an object inside the parent scope of that ng-repeat, and assign the index or whatever you wish to a propperty of that object. That is because objects work by reference in javascript, which means that the ng-click will actually update the parent scope attribute instead of redefine it.
