I am using the Jquery Cycle to create a slideshow with thumbnail pagers. The slideshow should pause when the thumbnail is hovered. I had wanted to include a Google Analytics event on the thumbnail & slide should it be clicked so each is wrapped in an anchor.
However, I have noticed that if the thumbs are clicked rapidly or if the mouse is moved over them rapidly, the timeout changes & even skips images! I removed the Google Analytics event so the setup is default & there should be only the call from the pager to Cycle but this did not correct the issue (FireFox / IE9).
I tried a recommended fix to prevent bubbling but the Cycle would not load:
$.click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
})
This had allowed the Cycle to load but did not solve the issue:
$('#nav li a').hover(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
})
These are my settings & any advice is appreciated:
