Trigerring jQuery UI slider events

in Using jQuery UI • 2 years ago

Is there a way to trigger a jQuery UI slider slide event? I have the following code and I'd like to do the same thing in change that's done in slide.

var options = {
slide : function(e, ui) {
// do some stuff
},
change : function(e, ui) {
ui.trigger("slide");
}
};
$("#mySlider").slider(options);

Your best bet is to define a function that each callback calls:

function updateSlider(e, ui) {
// do some stuff
}
var options = {
slide: function(e, ui) {
// do some stuff
updateSlider(e, ui);
},
change: function(e, ui) {
// do some other stuff
updateSlider(e, ui);
}
}
$("#mySlider").slider(options);

If you have nothing else to do in either case you can simplify even further:

function updateSlider(e, ui) {
// do some stuff
}
var options = {
slide: updateSlider,
change: updateSlider
}
$("#mySlider").slider(options);
