Ok, there is no way i can oppose that. You are an authority in what u r talking about and i comletely agree with u. I also understand exactly what u mean when u say that...
That said, the interesting part is, in the case of my lavalamp plugin http://www.gmarwaha.com/jquery/lavalamp/test/test.html , this code seems to solve the problem that could be solved by stopping animations in the middle. I don't understand how this works then. I willd be glad if you can explain that please. -GTG On 8/18/07, John Resig <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > That code doesn't work - it doesn't stop any animations, it only > clears the animation queue (stopping any future queued animations). > > You can't build a true stop animation without modifying jQuery core. > Here's a page that demonstrates that code that's going into jQuery > 1.2: > http://dev.jquery.com/~john/ticket/stop/ > > --John > > On 8/17/07, Cybolic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > You can start and stop an animation like so: > > > > // start > > $('#animationElement').animate({width: 50}, slow); > > > > // stop > > $.dequeue($('#animationElement').get(0), "fx"); > > > > > > You can of course define a helper for it like so: > > > > $.fn.stop = function(){ > > this.each(function(){ > > $.dequeue(this, "fx"); > > }); > > return this; > > }; > > > > - now you can just do: $('#animationElement').stop(); > > > > > > This should really be added to the documentation, or given a shortcut. > > If anyone would do this, or tell me how to do it, that'd be great. > > > > Cheers, > > Christian Dannie > > > > On Aug 4, 6:40 am, "Ganeshji Marwaha" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > hi friends, > > > > > > is there a way to stop an animation after it has started? any hack > that will > > > make this happen will be useful... > > > > > > thanks in advance, > > > -GTG > > > > >
