I have a couple of jQuery animations running in a sequence after certain resources are loaded:

$(".loading").delay(2600).fadeOut({
    useTranslate3d: true,
});

$(".zip").delay(1900).slideDown({
    useTranslate3d: true,
});

$("#zip").delay(2800).slideDown({
    useTranslate3d: true,
});

Is there a better way to combine all of these animations? It feels superfluous having to write them all out like this...

You can use the same options object for all three animations.

var opts = {
    useTranslate3d: true,
}
$(".loading").delay(2600).fadeOut(opts);
$(".zip").delay(1900).slideDown(opts);
$("#zip").delay(2800).slideDown(opts);

Having .zip and #zip pointing to different elements might also be a bit confusing - but that depends on your DOM structure.

Yeah, I'll worry about the naming later. – Charlie Jul 5 '12 at 1:06
