Question

In this example , I would like to trigger swiperight function first , and check whether the book is “pressed” . How to turn the bind “pressed” into a conditional statement? thank you.

    $(document).swiperight(function(){
      $("#book").bind("pressed", function(event) {   //  Change this statement to   if ($("#book") is "pressed"){..}
           console.log("pressed");
      });
});

Try

$("#book").click(function(event) { 
    var $this = $(this);
    //emulate toggle button
    $this.data("pressed", $this.data("pressed") ? '' : 1);     
});

$(document).swiperight(function(){
   if(!$("#book").data("pressed")) { //If not pressed
      //your code goes here
   }
});
