Quick question about jQuery plugin settings?

[JohnMotylJr]

Im having trouble calling my speed for my plugin. The code following is not the extent of my plugin, it is just for testing.
Basic Plugin:

(function($) {



$.fn.colorspan = function(options) {

var settings = {

speed: 800

};



if (options) {

$.extend(settings, options);

}



function testFunction() {

$('div').append("Howdy folks
");

}



timer = setInterval(function() {

testFunction();

}, settings.speed);

};

})(jQuery);

This works:

$('div').colorspan();

This doesn’t work:

$('div').colorspan(speed:'100');

Test Case: http://jsfiddle.net/john_motyl/yETC3/

If JSfiddle ever dies and somebody wants to know, this is all that needed to be changed:

$(‘div’).colorspan({ speed:’100′ });
