Jquery Slider Change

Hi, We have a slider already built but need to make two modification to it. The first is to make the slider pause on hover or have a pause button on the slider. The second item is: We have a menu with popup boxes. When a popup is clicked we would like to slider to pause and then when the popup is closed the slider is to resume. This should be really easy for someone who knows jquery. We would like this to be completed within the next few hours if possible. Thanks.
