Text blinking jQuery

Question

What is an easy way to make text blinking in jQuery and a way to stop it? Must work for IE, FF and Chrome. Thanks

I was going to post the steps-timed polyfill, but then I remembered that I really don’t want to ever see this effect, so…

function blink(element, interval) {
    var visible = true;

    setInterval(function() {
        visible = !visible;
        element.style.visibility = visible ? "visible" : "hidden";
    }, interval || 1000);
}
