Like the doc said : "Only properties that take numeric values are supported (e.g. backgroundColor is not supported by animate())." So you cool use a plugin: http://dev.jquery.com/~john/ticket/fx-rewrite2/ OR http://www.happinessinmycheeks.com/colorBlend/
With the first plugin, I will wrote this: $('input:checkbox]').toggle( function() { $(this).parents('tr').animate({backgroundColor:'#9C3'}, 2000).animate({backgroundColor:'#FFF'},1000); }, function() { $(this).parents('tr').animate({backgroundColor:'#9C3'}, 2000).animate({backgroundColor:'#E0F88F'},1000); } ); On 3 avr, 04:52, "Karl Rudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > *head smack* I missed that version of the function.
