Question

My idea is to fade in to the tab that is loaded.

This code seems like it should work, but it doesn’t fade in. What is wrong?

$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#logo").click(function(event) {
        $("#central").fadeIn("slow").load('page.html');
    });
});

Answer 1

You have to hide #central first, before fading it in:

$('#central').hide().fadeIn('slow').load('page.html');
