Question

I wrote a callback (I believe it’s called) like this:

hugeFadeIn();

It’s a simple code to fade in some content so that I don’t reuse the same code over and over again.

I then wanted to execute some code after hugeFadeIn finishes…
So I did this:

hugeFadeIn(){
    //la la la
});

And that was wrong, so I did this:

$(hugeFadeIn(){
    //la la la
});

And I’m still getting errors. What am I doing wrong? Thanks everyone 🙂

Edit
As requested, the body of the hugeFadeIn function:

function hugeFadeIn() {
    $("#huge-loader").fadeIn("fast");
}

Answer 1

If you want to run something after hugeFadeIn finishes, you need to pass your callback in.

function hugeFadeIn(after) {
    // whatever
    after();
}

(If hugeFadeIn does the fade itself and doesn’t rely on calling something that itself takes a callback.)

Edit after OP edit.

function hugeFadeIn(after) {
    $("#huge-loader").fadeIn("fast", after);
}
