Thanks for the help Mike, it's starting to come together. I've been testing it just now.
If I do use return this.each() then how do I reference the jQuery methods? without this.hover() etc? Obviously as this is no longer what I am expecting this.hover (as you say) fails. So do I use my 'self' variable or another way? I thought I saw someone just using .hover() (without any prefix) but this just fails. I don't fully understand the difference, currently I don't use any dom methods I just use jQuery (I partly thought that was the point of it? - Although I realise sometimes you need to go deeper). Basically I have 3 internal functions defined in two ways as: nextItem = function () or function pause() Am I right in thinking that nextItem() could be called through a jQuery chain and that pause() can only be called internally from my plugin? Or are they both the same just written differently? I have put my complete plugin and demo online if anyone is interested / can tell me what's wrong or right! http://www.sico.co.uk/jquery/index-plugin.php Thanks a lot, for once plodding through javascript is quite 'fun'!!!
