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

Answer 1

This code will effectively make the element(s) blink without touching the layout (like fadeIn().fadeOut() will do) by just acting on the opacity ; There you go, blinking text ; usable for both good and evil :)

setInterval(function() {
  $('.blink').animate({ opacity: 1 }, 400).animate({ opacity: 0 }, 600);
}, 800);
