Question

I was looking for a simple way, probably with jQuery, of lowering the opacity of all other DIVs when hovered and returning them back in on out.

<div id="fade_container">
     <div id="fade1">Content</div>
     <div id="fade2">Content</div>
     <div id="fade3">Content</div>
     <div id="fade4">Content</div>
</div>

For example: When fade2 is hovered fade1, fade3 and fade4 should lose some opacity.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks!

$('#fade_container div').hover(function(){  // mouseover 
  $(this).siblings().fadeTo('fast',0.5);  
}, function(){  // mouseout 
  $(this).siblings().fadeTo('fast',1.0);
});
