Replacing Cycle pager numbers with titles

Replacing Cycle pager numbers with titles

Hi,
I am trying to replace the pager numbers that get generated from jQuery Cycle and use a text list instead. And, further, how to target it to style it. If anyone can provide info/code clues that would be great.

Here's what I have so far:
       $('#slideshow').cycle({ 
        slides: "div.pane",
           fx:     'scrollHorz', 
           speed:  300, 
           timeout: 0, 
           prev:    '#prev',
           next:    '#next' ,
           pager: "ul.tabs"  
       });

I tried the PagerBuilder but it didn't work. Is there a trick to it?
