fadeout

I'm new to jQuery and javascript in general but am plugging my way through thanks to sites like these. I have a page with six hidden divs that are called with corresponding links with individual ids. When each div is made visable (.fadeIn), the currently displayed div is hidden (.fadeOut). It all works fine but my code seems to be really long and ungainly. Is there an easier, shorter, less code-intensive way to perform the same task please? Here is my js: Many thanks in advance. Mike $(document).ready(function(){ $("#link1").click(function() { $("#panel2").fadeOut("slow", function() { $("

I'm trying to add a simple fade in/out effect to the buttons by jQuery but I'm a bit stuck with fading out. I use this code: $('#header #menu li a').hover(function () { $(this).fadeOut(0).addClass('hover').fadeIn(300); }, function () { $(this).fadeOut(0).removeClass('hover').fadeIn(0); }); It adds a hover class which defines a css background and fade the hover image in. But when I move a cursor out of the button, it simply disappears as normally, no fading out. Can you help me with this please? Thanks a lot for all replies These two functions are opposites of each other, so should work... (

I have this code that fades a div over another one upon mouseover, and fades out when the cursor leave the viewing area. EXAMPLE: http://jsfiddle.net/3vgbemgu/ $('.under').hover(function () { $('.over').fadeIn(); }, function () { $('.over').fadeOut(); }); however, if the user moves the mouse over the area quickly multiple times, the animation creates a queue, meaning the div fades in and out various times one after another. This is much more obvious is there are multiple instances of this animation on screen, or if the fade in and out times are longer. How would I stop the animation

I'm trying to make some divs fadeOut and then be removed. $("article.articles .thumb a").click(function() { $(this).parent().parent().addClass("selected"); $("article.post").not(".selected").fadeOut(500).delay(1500).remove(); $('#stream').isotope('reLayout'); }); But the divs are removed right away without fading. What am I doing wrong? you can use fadeOut() callback function which is executed after fade effect is complete. .fadeOut( [duration] [, callback] ) $("article.post").not(".selected").fadeOut(500, function(){ $(this).remove(); }) or: $("article.post").not(".selected").fadeOut(500)

I want to do an AJAX call via jQuery load() and only once it returns, then fadeOut the old content and fadeIn the new content. I want to old content to remain showing until the new content is retrieved, at which point the fade Out/In is triggered. Using: $('#data').fadeOut('slow').load('/url/').fadeIn('slow'); the content fades in and out and a few moments the later the load() call returns, and the data updates, but the fade has already completed. Use callbacks to the control the order of the calls. var $data = $('#data'); $data.fadeOut('slow', function() { $data.load('/url/', function() {

I am working on an image slideshow, and the fadeOut() functionality working with every image change, but the next image appears abruptly. I want it to fade in. I can't seem to get it working. Here is the code without any fadeIn() : HTML: <div id="backgroundChanger"> <img class="active" src="background1.jpg"/> <img src="background2.jpg"/> <img src="background3.jpg"/> CSS: #backgroundChanger{ position:relative; } #backgroundChanger img{ position:absolute; z-index:-3 } #backgroundChanger img.active{ z-index:-1; } Javascript: function cycleImages(){ var $active = $('#backgroundChanger .active');

Currently, I am using this script for a type of "tab" system. When one tab is clicked, it hides all the others. They are all div's. But right now, I don't think it's fading fast enough before the selected div loads. It ends up getting shifted underneath the div that was selected and is now showing. I don't want a toggle, because as you can see, I have 5 tabs that I want to open their respective "_s" div when they are clicked. Fade out, fade in. Any way to make the fade out happen before the fade in, or maybe add in a delay? I do not know how to add in a delay into this script, or to check to
