I'm just now giving my first steps on jQuery animate(). I'm trying to make a presentation type thing just to practice, but I can't seem to be able to change the text of my div in the middle of the animation using the animate() function.
Here's my current code:
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"> </script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
var div=$("div");
div.animate({left:'100px'},"slow");
div.animate({fontSize:'3em'},"slow");
div.animate({fontSize:'1em'},2000);
div.animate({opacity:'0'},"slow");
//can I change the text with animation???
div.animate({opacity:'1'},"slow");
div.animate({left:'0px'},"slow");
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button>Start Animation</button>
<div id='text' style="background:#98bf21;height:100px;width:200px;position:absolute;">HELLO</div>
</body>
</html>
Is there a practical way I can change the text while the opacity is turned off, so when the animation returns the text is changed?
You can define an animation-listener and change your text within the listener:
You can use the queue function to queue up the change.
This is not available in jQuery, but you can use the jQuery plugin typed.js, here is an example:
