Jquery Cycle plugin: how to animate pager and link to specific slides

Jquery Cycle plugin: how to animate pager and link to specific slides

Hi there,

I am very new to jquery and have been asked to develop a slideshow/timeline, the work in progress can be found here:
http://www.chantellecreative.com/timeline/ourhistory.html

The list of years extends very far so I want to have the #yearlist animate left and right so that the years that are being viewed are showing in the pager.
I also have a secondary navigation that will move the pager and slider depending on the link you clicked
Our history = first slide
1931-1960 = start slide at 1931
1961-1981 = start slide at 1961
2007-2013 = start slide at 2007
2013-Present = start slide at 2013

hopefully this makes sense...

Any help is very much appreciated!
