effects using the animate
() method.
jQuery UI also provides the following:

New Visual Effects
In addition to the slideUp, slideDown, slideToggle, fadeIn, fadeOut,
fadeTo, show, hide, and toggle effects available in standard jQuery,
jQuery UI offers a range of new visual effects. All these effects can be
used by calling the new effect (effectName,
options, duration, callback) method, which works on jQuery class
objects returned by jQuery ().
The effect (effectName, options, duration, callback) Method
The effect (effectName, options,
duration, callback) method is used in the following
form:
$(selector, context).effect (effectName, options, duration, callback)
This method allows us to produce the basic visual effects of jQuery UI. The parameters of the method are listed in Table 14-1 (only the first parameter is mandatory).
