Text blinking jQuery

If you'd rather not use jQuery, this can be achieved with CSS3

@-webkit-keyframes blink {  
  from { opacity: 1.0; }
  to { opacity: 0.0; }
}

blink {
  -webkit-animation-name: blink;  
  -webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite;  
  -webkit-animation-timing-function: cubic-bezier(1.0,0,0,1.0);
  -webkit-animation-duration: 1s; 
}

Seems to work in Chrome, though I thought I heard a slight sobbing noise.

Try using this blink plugin

For Example

$('.blink').blink(); // default is 500ms blink interval.
//$('.blink').blink(100); // causes a 100ms blink interval.

It is also a very simple plugin, and you could probably extend it to stop the animation and start it on demand.

A plugin to blink some text sounds a bit like overkill to me...

Try this...

$('.blink').each(function() {
    var elem = $(this);
    setInterval(function() {
        if (elem.css('visibility') == 'hidden') {
            elem.css('visibility', 'visible');
        } else {
            elem.css('visibility', 'hidden');
        }    
    }, 500);
});

here's blinking with animation:

$(".blink").animate({opacity:0},200,"linear",function(){
  $(this).animate({opacity:1},200);
});

just give a blink class whatever u want to blink:

<div class="someclass blink">some text</div>
