I think there's some issues with fadeIn/fadeOut for <tr>. Try something like the following:
var html = '<tr id="ohai"><td class="hide">hello</td></tr>'; $('#groups').append(html).find("td").fadeIn("fast"); The class "hide" on the <td> is style with display:none; Add this to all your <td> if you have more than one.
