Are you serious? You'd have to have a plugin to animate a CSS property? Is it just because it's the body background or does that apply to any background in any element? andy

Yes, but you'll need the Interface plugin for that (at least iuitil.js and ifx.js, IIRC). http://interface.eyecon.ro Unfortunately, however, Interface overwrites jQuery's .animate() method, rather than extending it, which has caused problems for some people in the past. Don't know if that has been fixed/worked around or not. Maybe it's worth a shot, though. --Karl _________________ Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com _____ From: jquery-en@googlegroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Erik Beeson Sent: Friday, September 07, 2007 12:20 AM To: jquery-en@googlegroups.com Subject: [jQuery] Re: How to fade only the background? Changing opacity affects all child elements. To only fade the "background" just don't have the foreground be a child of it. You could use absolute or relative positioning or negative margins or floats. --Erik On 9/6/07, howa <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: Hi, The following code will fade the logo, instead of bg, e.g. <html> <head> <script src=" <http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/> http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/files/ jquery-1.1.4.pack.js" ></script> <style> #bg{ width:600px; height:600px; background-color:blue; } </ style> </head> <body> <script> jQuery(document).ready(function() { jQuery("#bg").fadeTo("slow", 0.5); jQuery("#logo").fadeTo("slow", 1.0); }); </script> <div id="bg"> <img id="logo" src=" <http://www.w3.org/Icons/w3c_main> http://www.w3.org/Icons/w3c_main"; /> </div> </body> </html> any workaround? thanks.
