title: Are jQuery's hide and slideUp methods equivalent?
body: <p>Do <code>slideUp('slow')</code> and <code>hide('slow')</code> result in the same animation effects?</p>
  
  <p>Example Code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#hide").click(function(){
      $("p").hide('slow');
    });
    $("#show").click(function(){
      $("p").show('slow');
    });
  });
  
  
  &lt;p&gt;If you click on the "Hide" button, I will disappear.&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;button id="hide"&gt;Hide&lt;/button&gt;
  &lt;button id="show"&gt;Show&lt;/button&gt;
  </code></pre>
