jQuery .animate reveal contact form hidden in div with negative margin above header
- by brhea
Hi everyone,
I've got my contact form hidden with a negative margin-top, so that when the visitor clicks "Contact" it reveals the div.
<script type="text/javascript">$("#revealContact").click(function(){
$("#contact").animate({
marginTop: "+=620px"
}, 1000);
});</script>
You can view it live here:

My problem is that as soon as the form is submitted, it inherits the -620 margin and the success (or error) prompt is invisible.
I'm running in to some other cross-compatibility issues as well with the margin spacing so I'm not even sure this is the best way to go about this. Obviously it'd be great if I could just begin with the div as display:hidden and then animate it to visible, but I haven't been able to do that.
Any input is appreciated, either with advice on how to save the margin after form submission, or suggestion on better method to achieve this hide/reveal.
Thanks,
Brian
