Caption issues/questions?

[jodriscoll]

Mottie, Is it possible to prevent the user from having the option to remove the caption by clicking it?

Second, I notice that if the user clicks the active slide, it reloads itself. How do I prevent the user from having the ability to load the slide they are currently viewing?

If you look in the onInitialized function code, just remove the .click() portion to disable clicking (demo).

Before:

    onInitialized: function (e, slider) {
        slider.$items.each(function () {
            var cap = jQuery(this).find('.caption');
            cap.css('bottom', -cap.innerHeight()).click(function () {
                cap.animate({
                    bottom: (cap.css('bottom') === "0px" ? -cap.innerHeight() : 0)
                }, toggleTime);
            });
        });
        updateCaption(slider, true);
        slider.$controls.find('img').tooltip();
    },

After

    onInitialized: function (e, slider) {
        slider.$items.each(function () {
            var cap = jQuery(this).find('.caption');
            cap.css('bottom', -cap.innerHeight());
        });
        updateCaption(slider, true);
        slider.$controls.find('img').tooltip();
    },

As for clicking on the same slide making the caption animate a second time, just add this line:

if (!init && slider.currentPage === slider.targetPage) { return false; }

to the updateCaption function like this:

    updateCaption = function (slider, init) {console.log(slider);
        if (!init && slider.currentPage === slider.targetPage) { return false; }
        if (init && showCaptionInitially) {
            setTimeout(function () {
                slider.$targetPage.find('.caption').animate({
                    bottom: 0
                }, toggleTime);
            }, slider.options.delayBeforeAnimate + toggleTime);
        } else if (!init) {
            var cap = slider.$lastPage.find('.caption');
            cap.css('bottom', -cap.innerHeight());
        }
    };
