I'm new to js frameworks and was playing around with effects and found one that I really like on my menu items. Using scriptaculous, what is the best way to handle this. Below is the code I was using to test out the dif effects:

 

echo '<li><a href="www.blah.com" onclick="new Effect.Highlight(this.parentNode, { startcolor: \'#ffff99\',endcolor: \'#e0dfdb\' }); return false;">Saved Jobs</a></li>';

 

This doesn't work and send me to blah.com of course.. should I do a javascript redirect or something after the effect. Also, I don't want the new page to load before the effect happens. Any suggestions?

Why not use a hover to highlight it? It would be a bit annoying to wait for animation to finish before an action would happen.

if you do want to wait for the highlight animation you could create a function that does a animation and redirect after the effect has finished
