Delay() doesn work if Show() duration not specified

[[email protected]…]

I could not get working the following line:

$('#target').delay(1000).show();

In this case the delay() method would be ignored and the target would show up immediately. Solution turns out to be very simple, but it took me some time to find it. Just add any duration to a show() method:

$('#target').delay(1000).show(1);

It seems to be the same issue with other effect methods.

I've updated the documentation to clarify this.
