The jQuery UI effects core extends the base class API to be able to animate between two different classes. The following methods are changed. They now accept three additional parameters: speed, easing (optional), and callback.

NameType
Class:

Attributes/switchClass

NameType
addClass( class )Returns: jQuery
Adds the specified class(es) to each of the set of matched elements.
removeClass( class )Returns: jQuery
Removes all or the specified class(es) from the set of matched elements.
toggleClass( class )Returns: jQuery
Adds the specified class if it is not present, removes the specified class if it is present.
toggleClass( class, switch )Returns: jQuery
New in jQuery 1.3 Adds the specified class if the switch is true, removes the specified class if the switch is false.

[edit]

switchClass

The switchClass method allows you to visually transition from one class to another. (This functionality is often described as 'animateClass'.)

For example: 

$(elem).switchClass('currentClass','newClass',500,'easeOutBounce',function(){
  console.log('transition is done!');
});
