Question

I am having a little problem using javascript-ajax here. In my page, I load in the content into one of the div with id content in an ajax manner, whenever the user clicks on links which have the class myajaxreq, and the contents are loaded into the div in a fade in manner. The javascript that I am using is this

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#content").load($('.myajaxreq:first').attr('href'));
});


$('.myajaxreq').click(function() {
    var myhref=$(this).attr('href');
    $('#content').hide().load(myhref).fadeIn('slow');

    return false;
}); 

---

All works great on localhost, but when i put it online and then when we click on these links, then: First the same content which was initially there in the div is loaded in fade in manner. After a few seconds, the new content is loaded.

I think I am missing some sort of

if(content document is ready)
     then load in a fade in manner
         and so on..

Please somebody help me out here !!

Answer 1

call fade in after success callback… try this

var jContent = $('#content').hide();
jContent.load(
        myhref,
        {},
        function(){
            jContent.fadeIn('slow');
        }
    );

here the whole code (untested)

$(document).ready(function(){
    var jContent = $("#content").load($('.myajaxreq:first').attr('href'));

    $('.myajaxreq').click(function() {
        var myhref=$(this).attr('href');
        jContent
          .hide()
          .load(
            myhref,
            {},
            function(){
                jContent.fadeIn('slow');
            }
        );

        return false;
    }); 
});
