I am using the jQuery Supersized plugin ( http://buildinternet.com/project/supersized/ ).
What I'm trying to achieve is taking an automatically generated list like this:
<ul>
<li><span class="image">/images/image1.jpg</span> <span class="title">My Title</span> <span class="thumb">/images/image-thumb1.jpg</span></li>
<li><span class="image">/images/image2.jpg</span> <span class="title">My Title</span> <span class="thumb">/images/image-thumb2.jpg</span></li>
<li><span class="image">/images/image3.jpg</span> <span class="title">My Title</span> <span class="thumb">/images/image-thumb3.jpg</span></li>
</ul>
And taking the relevant options and adding it into the slides:
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function($){
$.supersized({
...
slide_links : false,
slides : [
{image : '/images/image1.jpg', title : 'My title', thumb : '/images/image-thumb1.jpg'},
{image : '/images/image2.jpg', title : 'My title', thumb : '/images/image-thumb2.jpg'},
{image : '/images/image3.jpg', title : 'My title', thumb : '/images/image-thumb3.jpg'}
]
});
});
</script>
The system being used does not allow server side code, so I have to do it all in JS.
I have successfully created a simpler way of doing this but it could only be achieved with a trailing comma, which causes pre IE8's to break.
So this was the only solution I could come up with but haven't been able to arrange it so far.
More or less:
Can I take the details in the lists and use them in the slides to generate the background images for supersized?
e.g
This:
`<li><span class="image">/images/image.jpg</span> <span class="title">My Title</span> <span class="thumb">/images/image-thumb.jpg</span></li>`
To this:
{image : '/images/image.jpg', title : 'My title', thumb : '/images/image-thumb.jpg'}
With the last having no trailing comma.
