Using JavaScript to "animate" my webpage
I thought I'd write a simple script to animate my webpage a little.
The basic idea was to make a div grow bigger, when I push a button once and then shrink to it's original size, when I push it again. I handled the growing part well, but I can't get it to shrink again.
I'm including a complete example, could you help me fix it?

<button id="button" type="button" onclick="testFunction();">Do it!</button.
<div id="testDiv" style="border: 2px solid black; width: 400px; height: 100px; text-align: center;">
Hello!

Use a standard library like jQuery to do this, don't do it yourself as it won't be cross-browser for sure.
With jQuery, you can do things like this:
$("#div-id").animate({"height": 300}, 1000);
That'll change the div height to 300 px in 1000 ms = 1 second.
