bind a jquery function to fancybox .close() event

Question

I would like to trigger a simple jQuery function based on a fancybox closing. it is the only fancybox on the page

$.fn.fancybox.close = function() {     $('#sub_cont').hide(250, function() {     $('#IDsearchform input').val('');     });  }); 

ofcourse the above doesn't work

Answer 1

*Update: * Please take a note of @mathoiland's answer, "It looks like Fancybox 2 deprecated the onClosed callback. It now uses afterClose." if you are using FancyBox 2.x

Pass the onClosed option to the fancybox function.

i.e:

$("<YOUR-SELECTOR>").fancybox({   onClosed: function() {     $('#sub_cont').hide(250, function() {     $('#IDsearchform input').val('');     });   }) });
