I have a web service that updates a databound row, on success I want the row to highlight green then change back to its original color but I am having the most difficulty accomplishing the easiest part (the animate). Here is my javascript code, it works up until the animate part:

C#

<script type="text/javascript">

    function lbUpdateCriteria_Click(srcEl) {
        var vId = srcEl.getAttribute("CriteriaVestingId");
        var currentTr = $(srcEl).closest("tr");
        var typeId = currentTr.find("[getValue=ddlVestingCriteriaType" + vId + "]").val();
        var lowerBound = currentTr.find("[getValue=tbLowerBound" + vId + "]").val();
        var upperBound = currentTr.find("[getValue=tbUpperBound" + vId + "]").val();
        UpdateVestingCriteria(vId, typeId, lowerBound, upperBound, currentTr);

    }
    function UpdateVestingCriteria(vId, typeId, lowerBound, upperBound, currentTr) {
        var webMethod = "../Service/UpdateCriteria.asmx/UpdateNewCriteria";
        var parameters = "{'criteriaVestingId':'" + vId + "','criteriaTypeId':'" + typeId + "','lowerBound':'" + lowerBound + "','upperBound':'" + upperBound + "'}";
        $.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: webMethod,
            data: parameters,
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "json",
            success: function (msg) {

// This is where it breaks....
                currentTr.animate({ backgroundColor: "#48B84B" }, 1000);
                //currentTr.css("backgroundColor", "#48B84B");
                //                setTimeout(function () { $(currentTr).effect("highlight", { color: "#FFFFFF" }, 2000); }, 2000);


            },
            error: function (e) {
                debugger;
                alert(e.statusText)
            }
        });
    }
</script>

When it gets to the line currentTr.animate({...}) it throws this error

Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn't support this property or method

I've checked my jqueryui is the latest version 1.8.22, I've also tried other jqueryUI functions like css that do work correctly on the row. I don't know what else could be the problem. I've tried googling the error and nothing relavent to me comes up. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There may be issue with the TR. i suggest you to add Div tag in your cell and try with the same. let me know if it works.

Sadly still breaks.

are you getting correct TR using closest?

Yeah, I can alter the color without the animation correctly but the animation crashes when I try to do it.

http://api.jquery.com/animate/
check here

All animated properties should be animated to a single numeric value, except as noted below; most properties that are non-numeric cannot be animated using basic jQuery functionality (For example, width, height, or left can be animated but background-color cannot be, unless the jQuery.Color() plugin is used). Property values are treated as a number of pixels unless otherwise specified. The units em and % can be specified where applicable.

you need add twice to your page

you can find more detail from this page https://github.com/jquery/jquery-color[^]
