• Link to specific slides from static text links (Slide 6)

Usage & Options (defaults)

$('.anythingSlider').anythingSlider({
        easing: "swing",                // Anything other than "linear" or "swing" requires the easing plugin
        autoPlay: true,                 // This turns off the entire FUNCTIONALY, not just if it starts running or not
        startStopped: false,            // If autoPlay is on, this can force it to start stopped
        delay: 3000,                    // How long between slide transitions in AutoPlay mode
        animationTime: 600,             // How long the slide transition takes
        hashTags: true,                 // Should links change the hashtag in the URL?
        buildNavigation: true,          // If true, builds and list of anchor links to link to each slide
        pauseOnHover: true,             // If true, and autoPlay is enabled, the show will pause on hover
        startText: "Start",             // Start text
        stopText: "Stop",               // Stop text
        navigationFormatter: null       // Details at the top of the file on this use (advanced use)
});

Linking directly to slides

$("#slide-jump").click(function(){
     $('.anythingSlider').anythingSlider(6);
});
