Background Image Carousel - linking images

[Lervein]

hello,
I am using the Background Image Carousel spript.

everything works just fine (i havent touched the .js file at all), but i was wondering out if some one knows how to link the images out. I am able to make the caption a link, but not the whole picture.

What changes do i need to make so i am able to make the images link to another page.

Thanks!

Try the below modified .js file, which lets you associate a link to particular slides, so clicking on the slide goes to that link. It extends the initialization code with a "linkarray" option:

var firstbgcarousel=new bgCarousel({
	wrapperid: 'mybgcarousel', //ID of blank DIV on page to house carousel
	imagearray: [
		['autumnpark.jpg', '<h2>Autumn Day</h2>The sun peaks through the trees, a knife that cuts through the chill, crisp air.'], //["image_path", "optional description"]
		['chime.jpg', '<h2>Wind Chime</h2>The bellweather of the sky, the chime speaks of impending turmoil.'],
		['girlportrait.jpg', 'The scent of spring invigorates her as she inhales whilst the warm breeze brings a wave of tranquility.'],
		['redbench.jpg', 'Alone and Lonliness- Peace and Inner Struggle'] //<--no trailing comma after very last image element!
	],
	linkarray: [
		'http://cnn.com',
		'',
		'http://yahoo.com'
	],
	displaymode: {type:'auto', pause:3000, cycles:2, stoponclick:false, pauseonmouseover:true},
	navbuttons: ['left.gif', 'right.gif', 'up.gif', 'down.gif'], // path to nav images
	activeslideclass: 'selectedslide', // CSS class that gets added to currently shown DIV slide
	orientation: 'h', //Valid values: "h" or "v"
	persist: true, //remember last viewed slide and recall within same session?
	slideduration: 500 //transition duration (milliseconds)
})

Here the 1st and 3rd slides have a link associated with it.
