Text Animation.

Trying to animate some text.
Basically the idea is to remove the last character, fill in it’s position with it’s neighboring character (to its left, of course), and then remove it again. Repeat this until the rest of the text is gone.

Below is my attempt.. that doesn’t work. Note that I declared my variables and functions before the click event, which starts the animation. My guess is I probably don’t have proper syntax either.

var x = $(“#abouttext”);
var pos = x.charAt(833);

function Continue () {
var y = pos.prev();
pos.append(y);
pos.fadeOut(“fast”, linear, function Continue());
};

$(“a.about”).click(
function () {
pos.fadeOut(“fast”, linear, Continue());
}
);

help!
