Question

I’m using these scripts to fade in content, margin-right 0 the fourth item and to do the gray-color hovers:

$(document).ready(function(){    
    $("div.item:nth-child(4n+4)").css("margin-right", "0px");
});

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#main").hide().fadeIn();
});

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("img.a").hover(
        function() {
            $(this).stop().animate({"opacity": "0"}, "slow");
        },
        function() {
            $(this).stop().animate({"opacity": "1"}, "slow");
     });
});

The problem, is that when I load “portfolio” or “acerca” page (specially the text on the “acerca” section), the main content does a jump before the fade in. What i’m doing wrong?

Esteban I think you should get ‘#main’ div hidden by default so browser didn’t render it, and later in the ready callback do the fadein. To clarify, your following html:

<div id="main" class="clearfix">

could be changed to

<div id="main" style="display: none;" class="clearfix">

and then change this jquery:

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#main").hide().fadeIn();
});

to this

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#main").fadeIn();
});

try it, I think it’ll work fine..
