jQUery - insert &nbsp; inside label
<p>I want to hide a label using the <code>fadeOut</code> effect but when it is completed I want to insert inside it a <code>&amp;nbsp;</code></p>

<pre><code> $('label.alert').fadeOut('slow',function(){$(this).text('&amp;nbsp;');});
</code></pre>

<p>but it produces a <code>&amp;nbsp;</code> as a raw text. Any ideas ?</p>
