[jQuery] How to animate background-color ?

[jQuery] How to animate background-color ?


Hi guys,
I was wondering if anybody could help with this. I am trying to do animate
on the backgound-color of a div, but I got an error message saying that
'background-color' is not supported.
Here is my code:
$("#testanimate").mouseover(function(){
$(this).animate({'background-color':'#ffffff'},"slow");
});
Is this the correct way of doing it ? Have I missed something ?
Thanks for the help,
Chris
