title: Creating a DOM element on the fly, but fading it in
body: <p>I'm having a problem creating a DOM element, appending it to another element and having it fade into place.</p>
  
  <p>This doesn't seem to work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('&lt;div/&gt;').html('hello').appendTo('#parentDiv').fadeIn();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can anybody put me on the right track</p>
