I'm using the following code to animate a div.
<script>
$(function() {
$("a.shift").click(function() {
$("#introOverlay").animate({
height: 0,
}, 2000)
});
});
</script>
When the animation finishes, I would like to remove it. How can I do that?
animate takes 2 more params, so you could do:
$("a.shift")
.click(function()
{
$("#introOverlay")
.animate({height: 0}, 2000,"linear",function()
{
$(this).remove();
}
)
}
);
Untested.
EDIT: Tested: here's the full page I used, which expands to 300px make removal more obvious:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(".shift").click(function()
{
$("#introOverlay")
.animate({height: 300}, 2000,"linear",function()
{
$(this).remove();
})
});
});
//]]>
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a class="shift" href="javascript:void(0)">clickme</a>
<div id="introOverlay" style="background-color:red;height:200px;">overlay</div>
</body>
</html>
Put the remove()
call in the effects queue like this:
$("a.shift").click(function() {
$("#introOverlay").animate({
height: 0,
}, 2000);
$("#introOverlay").queue(function() {
$(this).remove();
$(this).dequeue();
});
});
