jquery fade content

I have navigation menu that once the user click then change and fade the content. The problem is even the child node became hidden. If I remove all the child node of my div id="witness" and id="believe" then it works fine. How to exclude child node of div id="witness" or id="believe"?

Thanks in advance.

here is my javascript

 $(function(){
    $("#content-linkwrap .hrefmenu").click(function(){

        $clicked = $(this);
        // if the button is not already "transformed" AND is not animated

            // each button div MUST have a "xx-button" and the target div must have an id "xx" 
            var idToLoad = $clicked.attr("id").split('-');

            //we search trough the content for the visible div and we fade it out
            $("#description").find("div:visible").fadeOut("fast", function(){
                //once the fade out is completed, we start to fade in the right div
                $(this).parent().find("#"+idToLoad[0]).fadeIn();
            })

    });
});

here is my html

Currently you have the following, where the find() matches all the child 'div' elements even those nested deep underneath the 'description' element:

$("#description").find("div:visible").fadeOut();

To just match the immediate children of the 'description' element which are visible, you can use this code instead:

$("#description").children().filter(":visible").fadeOut();

For more information, see the jQuery Traversing API documentation.

If you fade out an element, then all its contents are faded out, so there is no way to exclude certain child elements form the animation. My suggestion would be to use a more specific selector to pick the elements you really do want to fade out.
