Question

i have a botton which is for changing the background image with jquery, as the following code shows

$("#button").click(function() { 
  $('#div1').css("background-image", "url(images/newBG.jpg)");
});

it works very fine! but i want to fade in the newbg-image… is it possible to add a jquery fade method to it.
Any help would be very appreciated. Thanks Ted

Try this:

$("#button").click(function() { 
  $('#div1').hide().css("background-image", "url(images/newBG.jpg)").fadeIn(500);
});
