JQUERY CYCLE - Can I add page links to anchors assigned to Cycle's pager?

anchor, cycle, html, jquery

Solution

I will be releasing a new version today that fixes this problem, but in the meantime you can comment out these two lines in the plugin:

if (opts.pagerEvent != 'click')
    $a.click(function(){return false;});

Problem

Seems I've outdone myself. All the while I was creating this pretty little 'latest news' widget that fades on mouseover of each anchor. Then my colleague says, "Hey, Chris, these links don't work" ...oops. I would like to find out if I can have these anchors take the user to the relvent page on click. Currently Cycle is set to do its hocus pocus on mouseover. This is my Cycle code: ``` $('#newsSlider .slides ul').cycle({ fx: 'fade', speed: 1000, timeout: 0, pager: '.slides-nav', pagerEvent: 'mouseover', pagerAnchorBuilder: function(idx, slide) { // return sel string for existing anchor return '.slides-nav li:eq(' + (idx) + ') a'; } ``` Any help would be hugely appriciated. Thanks everyone! Christian
