Question

I’m trying to implement a jQuery function with an infinite loop to animate a div. I can’t figure out how to do it. This is my code:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $('#divers').animate({
        'margin-top': '90px'
    }, 6000).animate({
        'margin-top': '40px'
    }, 6000);
});

Answer 1

put the code that does the full animation into a function, then pass that function as the callback param to the last animation. Something like…

$(document).ready(function() {   
    function animateDivers() {
        $('#divers').animate(
            {'margin-top':'90px'}
            ,6000
        )
        .animate(
            {'margin-top':'40px'}
            ,6000
            ,animateDivers //callback the function, to restart animation cycle
        ); 
    }

    animateDivers(); //call, to start the animation
});
