trigger custom events

[aurmil]

hello
I needed to get a callback after switching background (to change pagination active item)
I added

this.$el.trigger('switchcomplete', [this.index]);

at the end of the switching function (l. 277)
may be this point could be added to your plugin
regards

So good idea! I'll consider it :)
Thanks.

Hi aurmil, I'm very interested with your issue to add a callback, can you explain how to do it? How you pass that callback?
Thanks

hi
I used jQuery.BgSwitcher v0.4.2
as mentionned, I added the code above at the end of the "switching" function
and in your own JS code:

$('CSS path to bgSwitcher container').bgswitcher({
// options
});

$('CSS path to bgSwitcher container').bind('switchcomplete', function(event, index) {
// do domething
});

As soon as I searched for help on how to achieve this trigger, I found your post and had it working fine in version 0.4.3.

Indeed I added this.$el.trigger('switchcomplete', [this.index]); after line 236 in switching function.

Then I added $('BODY').bind('switchcomplete', function(event, index) { alert('Hello!'); }); in my html page.

Thanks a lot!

I'm using:
switching: function() {
this.$el.trigger('switcher_before', [this.index]);
....
this.$el.trigger('switcher_after', [this.index]);
}

many thanks
