Run two jQuery functions at the same time

Question

I am using jQuery to slide something down and fade something else out, but in testing it, I\'ve noticed that the fading appears too long after the sliding happens. In other

Answer 1

They should run together if you do it like:

$('#element1').animate({
    opacity: 0.25,
    }, 1000, function() {
        // complete
});

$('#element2').animate({
    opacity: 0,
    }, 1000, function() {
        // complete
});

It'd be nicer if you set up a fiddle. If your DOM is large, you can minimally reduce the delay by doing the lookup ahead of time:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#trigger').click( function(){
        var vars = { $this        : $(this),
                     $carousel    : $('#carousel'),
                     $pullrefresh : $('#pullrefresh'),
                     $detector    : $('#detector')
                   };

        vars.$this.animate({ opacity: 0.0 },1000);  // fade
        vars.$carousel.animate({ top: '100px' });   // slide
        vars.$pullrefresh.css('top', '-490px');     // line 5
        vars.$detector.hide();                      // line 6
    });
});

try this

 $(document).ready(function(){
        $('#trigger').click( function(){         
            $(this).animate({ opacity: 0.0 },1000);        // fade
            $('#carousel').animate({ top: '100px' }); // slide
            $('#pullrefresh').css('top', '-490px');   // line 5
            $('#detector').hide();                    // line 6
        });
    });

specify the time 1000 for animate

   $(document).ready(function(){

       $('#trigger').click( function(){

           $.Deferred(function(dfr) {

              dfr.pipe(function() {
                  return  $(this).animate({ opacity: 0.0 }); // fade
              }).
              pipe(function() {
                  return $('#carousel').animate({ top: '100px' }); // slide
              })
              pipe(function() {
                  return $('#pullrefresh').css('top', '-490px'); // line 5
              }).
              pipe(function() {
                  return $('#detector').hide(); // line 6
              });

          }).resolve();

       });
  });
