fadeOut()

The jQuery fadeOut() method is used to fade out the element.

Syntax:

snippet

$(selector).fadeOut();
$(selector).fadeOut(speed,callback); 
$(selector).fadeOut(speed, easing, callback);

speed: It is an optional parameter. It specifies the speed of the delay. Its possible vales are slow, fast and milliseconds.

easing: It specifies the easing function to be used for transition.

callback: It is also an optional parameter. It specifies the function to be called after completion of fadeOut() effect.

Let's take an example to demonstrate jQuery fadeOut() effect.

snippet

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("button").click(function(){
        $("#div1").fadeOut();
        $("#div2").fadeOut("slow");
        $("#div3").fadeOut(3000);
    });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>See the fadeOut() method example with different parameters.</p>
