I have been using jQuery for quite some time now, following a question on one of the many forums and discussions group I visit daily I found that not many know that jQuery has a built in way to “listen” for an animation to end and then continue work.
For instance if I am using the slideDown effect, I can create a function that will only execute when the slide is finished.
how?
like this…
$('div.menuOurHotel').slideDown("slow", function()
{
$("div.order_form").hide();
});
This is a very useful way to create a responsive intuitive user interface.
Good luck
