JQuery delete DOM element after fading out

Question

I want to delete an DOM element right after fading out. What I did so far is

$(element).click(function()
{
    $(this).fadeOut(500, function() { $().remove(this)         


        

Answer 1

You're using the remove() function wrongly.

$(element).click(function() {
    $(this).fadeOut(500, function() { $(this).remove(); });
});
