 * Hi I am looking at a developing a function and need the syntax to pause the slideshow.
   The idea is that it maintains the pause facility even after a user hase clicked
   the next – previous navigation using a timeout to load the slide and then pause
   the slide. I just need to know the command to pause the slide show to place into
   the function. Thanks

 * I’m sorry, the slideshow doesn’t have an API for programmers yet. This means 
   the slideshow has no funtions to control it from another script.
 * You could, however, [fire a click event](http://api.jquery.com/trigger/) on the
   pause button element.
