jQuery :FadeOut not working with table Rows

Question

I have the following HTML table is rendered to my browser.I am creating this table from my ASP.NET codebehind file.

<table Class="tblTradeInCart">
    <tr class="tblCartHeader">
        <td>Item</td>
        <td>Model</td>
        <td> Price</td>
        <td>Delete</td>
    </tr>
    <tr id="tr_15_1">
        <td><img src="dia/images/LGVX9700.jpg" width="50" height="50" /></td>
        <td>LG VX9700</td>
        <td>$ 122</td>
        <td><a href='#' onclick="deleteItem(15,1,'tr_15_1')"><img src='..\Lib\images\NCcross.gif' style='border:0px'></a></td>
    </tr>
    <tr id="tr_11_8">
        <td><img src="dia/images/NOK5610.jpg" width="50" height="50" /></td>
        <td>NOKIA 5610</td>
        <td>$ 122</td>
        <td><a href='#' onclick="deleteItem(11,8,'tr_11_8')"><img src='..\Lib\images\NCcross.gif' style='border:0px'></a></td>
    </tr>
    <tr id="tr_14_9">
        <td><img src="dia/images/NOKN95.jpg" width="50" height="50" /></td>
        <td>NOKIA N95</td>
        <td>$ 91.5</td>
        <td><a href='#' onclick="deleteItem(14,9,'tr_14_9')"><img src='..\Lib\images\NCcross.gif' style='border:0px'></a></td>
    </tr>
</table>

and In my javascript i have the delete function as follows

function deleteItem(modelId,itemindexId, rowId)
{
   $.get("RemoveFromCart.aspx",{ model:modelId,cartItem:itemindexId,mode:"removefromcart",rand:Math.random() } ,function(data)
 { 
    //document.getElementById(rowId).style.display = "none";

    var row=$("#"+rowId);     
   row.fadeOut(1000);

});

}

But when i call the deleteItem function, I am not getting the fading Effect.Its simply hiding the row like the display="none".

Can any one guide me how to fix this ?

Answer 1

There is a problem in jQuery when hiding trs. This is the current workaround until they do something similar in the core, if they decide to.

row.find("td").fadeOut(1000, function(){ $(this).parent().remove();});

This basically hides the tds in the row, instead of the actual row. Then it removes the row from the DOM. It works in all browsers I believe. You could target IE specifically though if needed.
