title: jQuery: animate text color for input field?
body: <p>I've got this really simple piece of code that I thought was the correct way to get jQuery to animate the text color for a given input field. </p>
  
  <pre><code>$('input').animate({color: '#f00'}, 500); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But it won't work. However, I can change the text color:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('input').css('color', '#f00'); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've tried this in both Safari 4 and Firefox 3.5 with the same (lacking) results.
  I'd really appreciate any input on this problem as I'm running out of hair... Thanks.</p>
