carousel.onDestroy method throws error

[kennykaye]

Error: "Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'remove' of undefined "

This issue occurs when destroying and initializing slideshows with different transitions, i.e.: carousel and fade.

Specifically, when the carousel plugin attempts to call the "remove" method on the "opts._carouselWrap" object, however under this specific circumstance, the carouselWrap object does not exist.

Proposed fix:

On line 265 of jquery.carousel.js change:

    opts._carouselWrap.remove();

to

    if(opts._carouselWrap)
    {
        opts._carouselWrap.remove();
    }

Yep, I'm running into the same thing. I'm swapping out the carousel with a grid of the images. I destroy the cycle and wrap the elements in a ul and LIs. if I resize the browser while in this grid, it somehow thinks the opts._carouselWrap is still in existence and starts throwing errors.

Same problem, fix works, thx.

Over 2 years later? This fix still works, with cycle2!

Fix works. It's not in yet, so if you're having problems with destroying a carousel this is the way 👍
