Featured Content Glider multiple controls?

[karc]

1) Script Title: Featured Content Glider

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex17/featuredcontentglider.htm

3) Describe problem: I would like to have multiple next and previous buttons on my page that control a single content glider. Is this possible? It would be nice if I could do something as simple as featuredcontentglider.next() from another method but I already know it's not that simple. If this can't be done, does anyone know something similar with this functionality? Thanks.

Why can't you just give multiple buttons the designated CSS class name to get them to act as back/next buttons? For example:


<a href="#" class="prev">Prev</a> | <a href="#" class="prev">Prev 2</a>
<a href="#" class="toc">Page 1</a> <a href="#" class="toc">Page 2</a> <a href="#" class="toc">Page 3</a>
<a href="#" class="next">Next</a> | <a href="#" class="next">Next 2</a>

the script called only works for the css class in a certain div - if placed anywhere else, the buttons are not supposed to work. - correct me if im wrong:D

Yep, only links inside the "toggler" DIV are parsed for pagination links based on the required convention:


featuredcontentglider.init({
gliderid: "canadaprovinces", //ID of main glider container
contentclass: "glidecontent", //Shared CSS class name of each glider content
togglerid: "p-select", //ID of toggler container
