Yes, Webflow provides a way to check if a slide is active in a slider. The Slider element in Webflow comes with a built-in interaction system that allows you to trigger actions based on slide changes. To stop a JavaScript script when the last slide is reached, you can follow these steps:

  1. Select the Slider element on your Webflow canvas.
  2. In the Interactions panel, create a new interaction by clicking on the "+" button.
  3. Choose the "Slider" trigger from the list of options.
  4. In the "Affects" dropdown, select the Slider element again to specify that the interaction should affect the slider itself.
  5. Click on the "+ Add Action" button to add an action to the interaction.
  6. In the action list, select "While a slide is active" from the dropdown menu.
  7. Select the last slide in the "Slide" dropdown menu.
  8. Choose the action you want to take when the last slide is active. In this case, you want to stop a JavaScript script, so select the "Run JavaScript" option.
  9. Enter your JavaScript code in the provided text field. This code will stop the JavaScript script.

With this setup, the "Run JavaScript" action will be triggered when the last slide is active in the slider. You can customize the JavaScript code to stop your specific script.

Note: Make sure that you have added the necessary JavaScript code to your project before setting up this interaction.
