Bug With .animate()'s Callback?

I'm trying to make some div to animate, then in the callback, call another function. Nothing hard. Here's the code: function transfertMenu(){ var chosenOption = this.firstChild

Solution 1:

You should remove () from callback function because otherwise it gets called immediately:

 $('#leftMenucontent').animate({
    left:'0px'
 }, 500, constructMenu());
------problem --------^

Should be:

 $('#leftMenucontent').animate({
    left:'0px'
 }, 500, constructMenu);

So specify your callback function as constructMenu instead of constructMenu()
