Do you realize that you can do this now? There's already a .animate()
function, you don't need any of the 1.2 functionality for that.
SlideDown: .animate({ height: 'show' });
SlideUp: .animate({ height: 'hide });
SlideRight: .animate({ width: 'show' });
SlideLeft: .animate({ width: 'hide' });

Hi all!
I like jQuery a lot and have used it in couple projects now. But one thing I
really don't get is the "slideUp" and "slideDown" functions. Why can't I
decide which way the animation goes?? I really think they (the functions)
should be more generic. While browsing the road map for jQuery 1.2 I saw the
Relative Animations section which is exactly what I want. It would be
obvious if slideUp/slideDown uses this new method but wouldn't be nice if
there where a shorthand to achieve this?
I propose slideUp/slideDown(string
/number, string direction); where direction can be "up", "right", "down" or
"left".
For now I'll settle with animate and some CSS mumbo jumbo.
Anyway, thanks for your time - you took to read this :-)
