[jQuery] Re: intercepting links and adding a short animation before executing them

2008-02-07 Thread Smith, Allex

I think this is a bad idea from a usability standpoint... But...

Untested Code:
$('a').click(function(){
var hrefLoc = $(this).attr('href');
$('body').fadeOut(slow,function(){
window.location = hrefLoc;
});
return false;
});

Might be a better way to do it, here you go.

Subject: [jQuery] intercepting links and adding a short animation before
executing them



hello guys,

the title tells it all really: intercepting links and adding a short
animation before executing them

this might be the most amateur question for tonight - however an answer
would be very appreciated.

example:

i have a simple navigation in an unordered list. i want to make the page
i am on fade away in a smooth short animation before the onclick- event
is actually executed.

thanks in advance for any help.

oh my god - allex, you did it. it just works.

i am totally aware about the issues reg. usability - but in this case
it's not for the general public.

many, many thanks.
