jQuery slideUp().remove() doesn't seem to show the slideUp animation before remove occurs

I have this line of JavaScript and the behavior I am seeing is that the selectedLi instantly disappears without "sliding up". This is not the behavior that I expected.

What should I be doing so that the selectedLi slides up before it is removed?

selectedLi.slideUp("normal").remove();

Might be able to fix it by putting the call to remove in a callback arg to slideUp?

e.g 

selectedLi.slideUp("normal", function() { $(this).remove(); } );

You need to be more explicit: rather than saying "this" (which I agree should work), you should do this:

$("#yourdiv").slideUp(1000, function() {
    $(this).remove();
});

selectedLi.slideUp(200, this.remove);
