over 2 years later and still helping people. thanks!

I had a kind of complex rollover where one animation would trigger another with it’s callback and a couple other things, and running the mouse over it would screw up the states, sometimes leaving the over state active, or worse, partially active, when mousing out. This, along with taking the second animation that is triggered by the end of the first out of the callback for the mouseout portion, have made it much much better. thanks

jQuery.fx.off = true just turns off all animations — or, more precisely, changes the duration of all animations to 0. This post is about how to handle animations in certain cases without completely removing them.
