.slideUp( [duration] [, easing] [, callback] ) Example  Effects  <<  Top

Uses a sliding motion to hide the matched set optionally providing a duration, and/or an easing and/or a callback function.

  • When used in its basic form with no parameters or incorrect parameters the .slideUp() method defaults to sliding up the element(s) with a duration of 400 milliseconds which is the default.

In the example below when the left button is pressed we use 'swing' easing to animate the picture as we slide it up.

When the centre button is pressed we use a callback to alert when the image has been slid up.

When the right button is pressed we use a duration, easing and a callback to alert when the image is slid up.
