jquery delay and animate not working

Question

I have a form with submit button. It was working correctly. However now it has stopped working, please help.

$('#btnsubmit').click(function() {

    $(this).delay(2000).animate({
            width: '90px'
        },

        'slow',

        function() {

            alert('Im an alert message');
        }
    );

});

Answer 1

I think your form is getting submitted. You need to prevent the default action of submit button using e.preventdefault()

Like

$('#btnsubmit').click(function(e) {

    e.preventdefault();
    $(this).delay(2000).animate({
            width: '90px'
        },

        'slow',

        function() {

            alert('Im an alert message');
        }
    );

});
