jQuery fadeOut works but not fadeIn

Question

this is my code on jsFiddle, when I try doing

$('#featuredStores').fadeOut(1000)

it works, but .fadeIn() doesn't work, Similarly when I use .slideUp() it works, but doesn't work when I use .slideDown()

what's the issue here?

Answer 1

Basically slideDown() shows the image. Considering your image is already shown when the DOM is rendered, there is nothing to slide down to. If you set the style as display:none then use slideDown(), it'll work.
