Stop, Start supersized on fancybox

Question

I was trying to use supersized and fancybox togheter. I added some html to supersized.js to display images with fancybox into each slide, in the default captions box, which is div id=slidecaption.

All works, but i was trying to stop and re-start the supersized slideshow when fancybox open/close.

This code works fine to stop the slideshow:

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
$('#slidecaption').click(function() {
api.playToggle();
});
});
</script>

---

but i can't find a way to re-start the slideshow when i close fancybox. There's the div class=fancybox-overlay, but i repeat the above code for it:

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
$('.fancybox-overlay').click(function() {
api.playToggle();
});
});
</script>

.....nothing works.

Do you suyggest something easier?

Thank you very much

Try using fancybox callbacks within your fancybox custom initialization like :

$(".fancybox").fancybox({
    beforeLoad: function () {
        api.playToggle(); // stop / pause
    },
    afterClose: function () {
        api.playToggle(); // restart
    }
});
