Add a Cool Color Effect to Link Hovers

Ever want to have your links fade from one color to the next?

On a standard link hover, you get two colors: the normal link color and the hover color.

But thanks to jQuery and the Color Animations plugin, you can cross-fade to colors.

$(function() {
	$("a").hover(
	
		function () {
			if ($(this).is(":animated")) {
				$(this).stop().animate({color:"#ff0000"}, 500);
			}else{
				$(this).animate({color:"#ff0000"}, 1500);
			}
		},
		
		function () {
		if ($(this).is(":animated")) {
			$(this).stop().animate({color:"#0000ff"}, 500);
		}else{
			$(this).animate({color:'#0000ff'}, 1500);
		}
		
		});
			
});
