This is roughly equivalent to calling\n.css( \"display\", \"none\" )\n, except that the value of the\ndisplay\nproperty is saved in jQuery's data cache so that\ndisplay\ncan later be restored to its initial value. If an element has a\ndisplay\nvalue of\ninline\nand is hidden then shown, it will once again be displayed\ninline\n.\nWhen a duration, a plain object, or a \"complete\" function is provided,\n.hide()\nbecomes an animation method. The\n.hide()\nmethod animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. When these properties reach 0, the\ndisplay\nstyle property is set to\nnone\nto ensure that the element no longer affects the layout of the page.\nDurations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings\n'fast'\nand\n'slow'\ncan be supplied to indicate durations of\n200\nand\n600\nmilliseconds, respectively.\nNote that\n.hide()\nis fired immediately and will override the animation queue if no duration or a duration of 0 is specified.\nAs of jQuery\n1.4.3\n, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called\nswing\n, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called\nlinear\n. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the\njQuery UI suite\n.\nIf supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but\nthis\nis set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole.\nNote:\nThis method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes.\nWe can animate any element, such as a simple image:\n1\n2\n3\n4\n<\ndiv\nid\n=\n\"clickme\"\n>\nClick here\n<\/\ndiv\n>\n<\nimg\nid\n=\n\"book\"\nsrc\n=\n\"book.png\"\nalt\n=\n\"\"\nwidth\n=\n\"100\"\nheight\n=\n\"123\"\n>\n1\n2\n3\n4\n5\n6\n\/\/ With the element initially shown, we can hide it slowly:\n$(\n\"#clickme\"\n).on(\n\"click\"\n,\nfunction\n(\n)\n{\n$(\n\"#book\"\n).hide(\n\"slow\"\n,\nfunction\n(\n)\n{\nalert(\n\"Animation complete.\"\n);\n});\n});\nFigure 1 - Illustration of the\nhide()\neffect\nAdditional Notes:\nAll jQuery effects, including\n.hide()\n, can be turned off globally by setting\njQuery.fx.off = true\n, which effectively sets the duration to 0.

This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( \"display\", \"none\" )`, except that the value of the `display` property is saved in jQuery's data cache so that `display` can later be restored to its initial value. If an element has a `display` value of `inline` and is hidden then shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`.\n\nWhen a duration, a plain object, or a \"complete\" function is provided, `.hide()` becomes an animation method. The `.hide()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. When these properties reach 0, the `display` style property is set to `none` to ensure that the element no longer affects the layout of the page.\n\nDurations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively.\n\nNote that `.hide()` is fired immediately and will override the animation queue if no duration or a duration of 0 is specified.\n\nAs of jQuery **1\\.4.3**, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https:\/\/jqueryui.com\/).\n\nIf supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole.\n\n**Note:** This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes.\n\nWe can animate any element, such as a simple image:\n\n|   |   |\n|---|---|\n| 1 2 3 4 |   |\n\n|   |   |\n|---|---|\n| 1 2 3 4 5 6 |   |\n\n![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_05.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_06.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_07.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_08.png)\n\nFigure 1 - Illustration of the `hide()` effect\n### Additional Notes:\n- All jQuery effects, including `.hide()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0.

(version added: 1.8 ) fail A function to be called when the animation on an element fails to complete (its Promise object is rejected). (version added: 1.8 ) always A function to be called when the animation on an element completes or stops without completing (its Promise object is either resolved or rejected). (version added: 1.8 ) version added: 1.4.3 .hide( duration [, easing ] [, complete ] ) duration (default: 400 ) A string or number determining how long the animation will run. easing (default: swing ) A string indicating which easing function to use for the transition. complete A function to call once the animation is complete, called once per matched element. With no parameters, the .hide() method is the simplest way to hide an element: 1 $( ".target" ).hide(); The matched elements will be hidden immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling .css( "display", "none" ) , except that the value of the display property is saved in jQuery's data cache so that display can later be restored to its initial value. If an element has a display value of inline and is hidden then shown, it will once again be displayed inline . When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, .hide() becomes an animation method. The .hide() method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. When these properties reach 0, the display style property is set to none to ensure that the element no longer affects the layout of the page. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings 'fast' and 'slow' can be supplied to indicate durations of 200 and 600 milliseconds, respectively. Note that .hide() is fired immediately and will override the animation queue if no duration or a duration of 0 is specified. As of jQuery 1.4.3 , an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation.

Note: This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: 1 2 3 4 < div id = "clickme" > Click here </ div > < img id = "book" src = "book.png" alt = "" width = "100" height = "123" > 1 2 3 4 5 6 // With the element initially shown, we can hide it slowly: $( "#clickme" ).on( "click" , function ( ) { $( "#book" ).hide( "slow" , function ( ) { alert( "Animation complete." ); }); }); Figure 1 - Illustration of the hide() effect Additional Notes: All jQuery effects, including .hide() , can be turned off globally by setting jQuery.fx.off = true , which effectively sets the duration to 0.

With no parameters, the `.hide()` method is the simplest way to hide an element: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 \| \| The matched elements will be hidden immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( "display", "none" )`, except that the value of the `display` property is saved in jQuery's data cache so that `display` can later be restored to its initial value. If an element has a `display` value of `inline` and is hidden then shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`. When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, `.hide()` becomes an animation method. The `.hide()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. When these properties reach 0, the `display` style property is set to `none` to ensure that the element no longer affects the layout of the page. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively. Note that `.hide()` is fired immediately and will override the animation queue if no duration or a duration of 0 is specified. As of jQuery 1\.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https://jqueryui.com/). If supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole. Note:** This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 \| \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 \| \| ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_05.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_06.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_07.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_08.png) Figure 1 - Illustration of the `hide()` effect ### Additional Notes: - All jQuery effects, including `.hide()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0. For more information, see [jQuery.fx.off](https://api.jquery.com/jquery.fx.off/). ## Examples: ### Example 1 Hides all paragraphs then the link on click. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 \| \| #### Demo: ### Example 2 Animates all shown paragraphs to hide slowly, completing the animation within 600 milliseconds. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 \| \| #### Demo: ### Example 3 Animates all spans (words in this case) to hide fastly, completing each animation within 200 milliseconds.

(version added: [1\.8](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.8/)) - done A function to be called when the animation on an element completes (its Promise object is resolved). (version added: [1\.8](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.8/)) - fail A function to be called when the animation on an element fails to complete (its Promise object is rejected). (version added: [1\.8](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.8/)) - always A function to be called when the animation on an element completes or stops without completing (its Promise object is either resolved or rejected). (version added: [1\.8](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.8/)) - #### version added: [1\.4.3](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.4.3/)[.hide( duration \[, easing \] \[, complete \] )](https://api.jquery.com/hide/#hide-duration-easing-complete) - duration (default: `400`) A string or number determining how long the animation will run. - easing (default: `swing`) A string indicating which easing function to use for the transition. - complete A function to call once the animation is complete, called once per matched element. With no parameters, the `.hide()` method is the simplest way to hide an element: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 \| \| The matched elements will be hidden immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( "display", "none" )`, except that the value of the `display` property is saved in jQuery's data cache so that `display` can later be restored to its initial value. If an element has a `display` value of `inline` and is hidden then shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`. When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, `.hide()` becomes an animation method. The `.hide()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. When these properties reach 0, the `display` style property is set to `none` to ensure that the element no longer affects the layout of the page. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively. Note that `.hide()` is fired immediately and will override the animation queue if no duration or a duration of 0 is specified. As of jQuery 1\.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https://jqueryui.com/). If supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole. Note: This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 \| \| \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 \| \| ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_05.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_06.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_07.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_08.png) Figure 1 - Illustration of the `hide()` effect ### Additional Notes: - All jQuery effects, including `.hide()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0.
