jQuery fadeIn() following after()

Question

I was looking to do a .fadeIn() animation chained to this .after(), but this doesn't appear to be the way of doing it. Any suggestions?

$(clicked_item).parent().parent().parent().after(str).fadeIn("slow");

Answer 1

You should use .insertAfter();

$(str)
  .hide()
  .insertAfter($(clicked_item).parent().parent().parent())
  .fadeIn("slow");
