Question

In my code below, I want to be able to pass in prev or next.
I basically just want to know how to make pn into a variable in my function(I tried below but its wrong), so i can do this:

doSlide($('UL li:last'), 0, next)

or

doSlide($('UL li:last'), 15, prev)

function:

function doSlide(current, px, pn) {
    $(current).animate({
        right: px
    },200);
    setTimeout(function(){
            doSlide($(current)."+ pn +"('li'), px);           
    },45);
}

Answer 1

I’d send the functions as strings like this:

doSlide($('UL li:last'), 15, "next")

or

doSlide($('UL li:last'), 15, "prev")

And the function would be:

function doSlide(current, px, pn) {
    $(current).animate({
        right: px
    },200);
    setTimeout(function(){
            doSlide($(current)[pn]('li'), px);           
    },45);
}

Try it. It works.

Hope this helps. Cheers
