How to pause on hover in easy slider

Question

http://cssglobe.com/post/4004/easy-slider-15-the-easiest-jquery-plugin-for-sliding

I am using easy slider for banner and I called below script to play

    $("#slider").easySlider({
            auto: true,
            continuous: true,
            nextId: "slider1next",
            prevId: "slider1prev",
            hoverpause: true            });
    });

It's sliding properly . But I want to pause sliding, While hover on the slide

Answer 1

You have to alter existing easySlider1.5.js to suit your requirement. As shown in your code you can add new parameter hoverpause: true

In easySlider1.5.js you have to add

            hoverpause: false

in options,

also at the end you need to add

   if(options.hoverpause && options.auto){
            $(this).mouseover(function(){
                clearTimeout(timeout);                  
            }).mouseout(function(){
                animate("next",false);                  
            })
}

Here is entire js

(function($) {

    $.fn.easySlider = function(options){

        // default configuration properties
        var defaults = {            
            prevId:         'prevBtn',
            prevText:       'Previous',
            nextId:         'nextBtn',  
            nextText:       'Next',
            controlsShow:   true,
            controlsBefore: '',
            controlsAfter:  '', 
            controlsFade:   true,
            firstId:        'firstBtn',
            firstText:      'First',
            firstShow:      false,
            lastId:         'lastBtn',  
            lastText:       'Last',
            lastShow:       false,              
            vertical:       false,
            speed:          800,
            auto:           false,
            pause:          4000,
            continuous:     false,
            hoverpause:     false
        }; 

        var options = $.extend(defaults, options);  

        this.each(function() {  
            var obj = $(this);              
            var s = $("li", obj).length;
            var w = $("li", obj).width(); 
            var h = $("li", obj).height(); 
            obj.width(w); 
            obj.height(h); 
            obj.css("overflow","hidden");
            var ts = s-1;
            var t = 0;
            $("ul", obj).css('width',s*w);          
            if(!options.vertical) $("li", obj).css('float','left');

            if(options.controlsShow){
                var html = options.controlsBefore;
                if(options.firstShow) html += '<span id="'+ options.firstId +'"><a href=\"javascript:void(0);\">'+ options.firstText +'</a></span>';
                html += ' <span id="'+ options.prevId +'"><a href=\"javascript:void(0);\">'+ options.prevText +'</a></span>';
                html += ' <span id="'+ options.nextId +'"><a href=\"javascript:void(0);\">'+ options.nextText +'</a></span>';
                if(options.lastShow) html += ' <span id="'+ options.lastId +'"><a href=\"javascript:void(0);\">'+ options.lastText +'</a></span>';
                html += options.controlsAfter;                      
                $(obj).after(html);                                     
            };

            $("a","#"+options.nextId).click(function(){     
                animate("next",true);
            });
            $("a","#"+options.prevId).click(function(){     
                animate("prev",true);               
            }); 
            $("a","#"+options.firstId).click(function(){        
                animate("first",true);
            });             
            $("a","#"+options.lastId).click(function(){     
                animate("last",true);               
            });     

            function animate(dir,clicked){
                var ot = t;             
                switch(dir){
                    case "next":
                        t = (ot>=ts) ? (options.continuous ? 0 : ts) : t+1;                     
                        break; 
                    case "prev":
                        t = (t<=0) ? (options.continuous ? ts : 0) : t-1;
                        break; 
                    case "first":

                $("a","#"+options.firstId).hide();              
            };              

        });

    };

})(jQuery);

& HTML you can initialized slider,

$(document).ready(function(){   
            $("#slider").easySlider({
                auto: true,
                continuous: true,
                hoverpause: true
            });
        });
