Cycle plugin & Fancybox conflict
On my latest project, I was trying to integrate Fancybox plugin and jQuery Cycle plugin on the same page. They didn’t play nicely together at first but eventually I got them to work.
The best approach was to use jQuery.noConflict();
First off, I call the FancyBox js files before the Cycle plugin and I reassigned the FancyBox JQuery shortcut to use $jq instead of the standard $.
Here’s the code for how I did it:
<!-- FANCY BOX --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="/scripts/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.css" type="text/css" media="screen" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var $jq = jQuery.noConflict(); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/scripts/fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.4.pack.js"></script>
<!-- JQUERY CYCLE -- > <!-- include jQuery library --> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5/jquery.min.js"></script> <!-- include Cycle plugin --> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cloud.github.com/downloads/malsup/cycle/jquery.cycle.all.latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function($) { // Code that uses jQuery's $ can follow here. $("#s4") .after('<div id="slide-show-nav">') .cycle({ fx: 'fade', speed: 800, timeout: 4300, pause: 1, pager: '#slide-show-nav', pagerAnchorBuilder: function(idx, slide) { return '<a href="#" style="width: 15px;"> </a>'; } }); }); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function($) { $jq("a[rel=example_group]").fancybox({ 'transitionIn' : 'none', 'transitionOut' : 'none', 'titlePosition' : 'over', 'titleFormat' : function(title, currentArray, currentIndex, currentOpts) { return '<span id="fancybox-title-over">Image ' + (currentIndex + 1) + ' / ' + currentArray.length + (title.length ? ' ' + title : '') + '</span>'; } }); }); </script>
