jquery .hide().fadeIn()

Question

This is my code:

$('.items').html(response).hide().fadeIn();

The problem is that when this is loaded the page "jumps" up due to that the .hide().. is there some other way to do this?

Answer 1

You could using the opacity instead if you want to keep the dimensions of the element intact:

$('.items').html(response).css({'opacity':0}).animate({'opacity':1});
