JQuery fading a div after a certain time
Here’s a handy bit of code that i use quite regularly, its particularly useful if your getting a response message from a form to notify the user that there data was sent, or comunicate an error and you want to fade the message out after a set time.
Firstly you need to include the jQuery framework you can download the latest version here.
All you need to change is the target div, in our case ‘mydiv’
$(document).ready(function(){
setTimeout(function(){
$("div.mydiv").fadeOut("slow", function () {
$("div.mydiv").remove();
});
}, 2000);
});
To adjust the amount of time until the fade function is triggered simply change the ‘2000′ to a different number, currently set at 2 seconds or 2000 milliseconds.

Ha, yeah subscribe to my feed and get the inside gossip!
Nice piece of information to get me started! Think it’ll come in handy when confirming, for example, a save when using AJAX.
Great tip, been looking for something like this for a long, long time.
Good work
Excellent job!
