hi Dmitry,
The problem is here:
var span_id=[is_next ? "#navline_next" : "#navline_prev"];
span_id will be either ['#navline_next'] or ['#navline_prev'], which
is an array but not string.
When passing an array to jQuery(), it will regard it as a set of
selected elements but not a css selector.
Hope it's helpful.
