Apply Hex Color To Div With JQuery

[phdphd]

Hi All,

I am trying to apply some fading effect to a Div, for which I want also to set an hex color.

This works :

$('#myDiv').css('color', 'blue');
$('#myDiv').fadeIn(5000, function() { $(this).delay(3000).fadeOut(3000); });

This doesn't:

$('#myDiv').css('color', '#050709');
$('#myDiv').fadeIn(5000, function() { $(this).delay(3000).fadeOut(3000); });

Thanks !

There's no meaningful difference between those two.

Are you sure you're seeing the color:blue from your css() and not from something else? Does it still seem to work with red, or green?

Yes I am sure it comes from css(). And it works with any color by name, like red or FireBrick.

 #050709 is close to black. Could it be working but you aren't noticing? What about something like #FFFF00?

Remove the bit causing it to fade out, then inspect the element in your browser. What CSS does it report?

Hum, I think I need to go to my ophthalmologist...
