jQuery stop() method

stop()The method stops the jQuery animation or effect running on the selected element before completion.

When the stop() method is called on an element, any currently running animation (if any) is immediately stopped.

If multiple animation methods are called on the same element, the subsequent animations will be placed in the effect queue.

Thisstop()The syntax of the method is:

$ (selector).stop(clearQueue, jumpToEnd)

The stop() method accepts two optional parameters:

  • clearQueue-A boolean value indicating whether to also remove the queued animations. The default is false

  • jumpToEnd-A boolean value indicating whether to immediately complete the current animation. The default is false

The following example stops the currently running animation:

$("button").click(function(){
  $("div").stop();
});

  $("div").stop(true);
});

});
