jquery prepend + fadeIn
Assuming response
is HTML then try this:
$(response).hide().prependTo("#be-images ul").fadeIn("slow");
When you do it this way:
$('#be-images ul').prepend(response).fadeIn('slow');
the thing you're actually fading in is the result of the initial selector (the list at the front), which is already visible.
+1 to cletus, but I just wanted to highlight the other way you could do it.
$('#be-images ul').prepend( $(response).hide().fadeIn('slow'));
Try this:HTML
<button>Add</button><div id="data"></div>
Jquery:
$('button').click(function() { $('#data').prepend('<div class="item">Test</div>'"'); $("#data .item:first-child").hide(); $("#data .item:first-child").fadeIn();});
