If i'm reading your code right, you may want to try eq(i) instead of index (i). index is used to return the index of the match element, its not used to retrieve that element.

I thought maybe I could use .index but was not able to get the syntax right. I thought maybe something like this would work but is has not: $("#mycarousel > li").index(i).css("margin-right", "5px");
