Blink functionality can be implemented by plain javascript, no requirement for jquery plugin or even jquery.

This will work in all the browsers, as it is using the basic functionality

Here is the code

JS Code:

var ele = document.getElementById('blinkThis');
setInterval(function () {
    ele.style.display = (ele.style.display == 'block' ? 'none' : 'block');
}, 500);
