You can just use the fadeOut and fadeIn methods to animate just the opacity:
$('#mydiv').fadeOut().fadeIn().fadeOut().fadeIn();
You could loop a set number of times with something like this:
var blinkCount = 2*2;// two blinks, 4*2 for four blinks
do {
$('#mydiv')['fade'+(blinkCount%2==0?'Out':'In')]('slow');
} while (--blinkCount);

no it does not work: it seems show() / hide() works on the width, height, or
opacity. but then i guess i could try to build this effect by using a
timeout and display:none / auto or something like that....

How about callback = function() {
$("#mydiv").hide().show().hide().show()
}

Subject: [jQuery] Blink effect
hi,
i've been playing with the effects built in jquery and had a lot of fun
playing with such flexibility. However, i could not achieve what i wanted:
having an element blink twice when its html content get loaded via ajax. The
problem is the blinking of course, jquery has mad ajax so easy.
i was wondering if anyone succeeded in creating that special effect, that
would have something blink a certain number of times upon appearing ?
thank you very much!
alex
