<%= javascript_tag "$('notification_message').visualEffect('SlideDown');" %> <%= update_page_tag do |page| page.delay(4) do

  if page['notification_message'].visible
    page['notification_message'].visual_effect :slide_up

end %>

where page['notification_message'].visible is showing error while loading.. showign the error as page['notification_message'].visible is not a function

You should use visible in a selectore like this:

$("div.selector:visible").something()

this wil give you all the div's with a class 'selector" that are visible.

I can't really figure out what you want tod do with this coden so I hope this is a relevant answer.
