CarouFredSel Plugin using TouchSwipe with links not working

Question

I\'m using the awesome CarouFredSel JQuery carousel plugin which includes features for integrating the JQuery TouchSwipe library for handheld devices as well.

Well, I'd really love to know if using links within TouchSwipe and the CarouFredSel plugin is possible, but I found a workaround that seems to work.

Hopefully it will help someone.

I ended up using a second touch jquery library, TouchWipe.

When, calling the CarouFredSel plugin, I set the swipe parameter to true:

$('#carousel-slider').carouFredSel({
        width: '100%',
        prev: '#prev-propslider',
        next: '#next-propslider',
        swipe: true
});

Then, calling both the TouchSwipe AND Touchwipe libaries (not sure if this matters, but I'm using the regular TouchSwipe swipe:true parameter for another slider without links), I wrote a separate function to call custom events for the TouchWipe plugin:

$('#carousel-slider').touchwipe({
        wipeLeft: function() {
            $('#carousel-slider').trigger('next', 1);
        },
        wipeRight: function() {
            $('#carousel-slider').trigger('prev', 1);
        }
});

Hopefully this helps someone, but I'd really love to know if TouchSwipe and CarouFredSel can work with tags as I cannot find any live working examples.
