"expresso" (we don't know your name), if you're still in need of help, why not post an overview of what you need? You've posted several pieces of your puzzle but no one can guess the overall structure you're trying to code. Like "I need a carousel that expands when blablabla and loads blablabla from json". And I'm pretty sure you have an architectural problem there, the specific issues that pop up are just a consequence of a lack of planning.
Or just save your sleep time and hire someone with more experience to do this for you :] And, please, try to keep discussions decently worded, and avoid posting in sequence, specially if it's just pointless fighting, this is a public forum.
