I am attempting to get the index of the current item in a JCarousel so that I can display the current position within the Carousel to the user. For example, \'13/20\'.

Depends of what you want to do but here is a more "generic way" to do the same, instead that you return the object itself and not is id:

var currSlide = 0;
    function getCurrentCarouselItem(){
      $("ul#ulcol li.licol").each(function(){
        if ($(this).offset().left >= 0){
            currSlide = this;
            return false;
        }
      });
    return currSlide;
    }
