The reason I had this issue was due to what I was doing in my code:
function show(jump){
this.fx[(jump)?'start':'set']('height',100).chain(
this.doSomething.bind(this) );
};
So now that I understand I can not do this due to design, I will use
switch()... still my logic tells me that if fx supports chaining (according
to docs) I should be able to use it with .set as well.
