Optimize jQuery code
- by Dannemannen
Greetings,
Just built some stuff with jQuery, everything works perfect(!), but I would like it to be as optimzed as possible.. what small changes can I do to my code?
$(document).ready(function() {
// hide the indicator, we use it later
$(".indicator").hide();
// start the animation of the progressbar
$(".fill").animate({ width: "50px",}, 4000, function() { $(".indicator").effect("pulsate", { times:999 }, 2000);});
// notify-me ajax function
$(".btn-submit").click(function() {
// get the variable email and put it in a new variable
var email = $("input#mail").val();
var dataString = 'mail='+email;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/mail.php",
data: dataString,
dataType: "json",
success: function(msg){
// JSON return, lets do some magic
if(msg.status == "ok") {
$("#response-box").fadeIn("slow").delay(2000).fadeOut("slow");
$("#fade").fadeIn("slow").delay(2000).fadeOut("slow");
$("#response-box .inner").html("<h1>Thank you.</h1>We'll keep in touch!");
$("#mail").val("e.g. name@example.com");
} else {
$("#response-box").fadeIn("slow").delay(2000).fadeOut("slow");
$("#fade").fadeIn("slow").delay(2000).fadeOut("slow");
$("#response-box .inner").html("<h1>Oops.</h1>Please try again!");
}
}
});
//make sure the form doesn't post
return false;
});
});
