So as a hack to solve it I tried to put the value of i in a data attribute.    However it doesn't seem like my data method is setting or getting the data attribute.   TIA,

Just a quick note.  Don't use this:

  for (var i = 0; i < $('.carousel-dots-nav-item').length; i++) {

but *rather* something like:

  $(".carousel-dots-nav-item").each(...)

That should solve your binding issues.
