I've written a small plug-in work-around for stopping animation - not very
pretty, but does the job while waiting for the 'official' version in jQuery
1.2.
I Would like some feedback (not too harsh please!).
The plug-in was inspired by the original 'easing' plug-in by George Smith
and goes like this:
// Modify fx function by converting first to a String
jQuery.fx = String(jQuery.fx).replace(RegExp("13\\);"), "13);if (
options.handle){ eval('window.'+options.handle+'=z.timer');}");
// make it a Function again
jQuery.fx = Function( "elem", "options", "prop", jQuery.fx.substring(
jQuery.fx.indexOf('{')+1, jQuery.fx.lastIndexOf('}')));
// Clear the Queue
$.fn.clearQueue = function(type) {
return this.each(function(){
type = type || "fx";
if(this.queue && this.queue[type]) {
this.queue[type].length = 0;
}
});
};
Then to use it you do something like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.aHandle=null;
function startAnimate() {
$('#abc').animate({left:500}, { complete:function(){},
duration:5000,
easing:true,
handle:'aHandle'}, 'easein');
}
function stopAnimate() {
window.clearInterval(window.aHandle);
$('#abc').clearQueue();
}
</script>
