Fiddling with .animate()

I am playing about with the .animate function in jQuery, I'm fairly new to the function, however for some reason, I can't get it to work. Not sure where I might be going wrong.

First, I define the script in the body tags...

<script>
$('.rgt_btn').click(function() {
  $('.ovlBox').animate({
    opacity: 0.0 // I hope this will work? I'm trying to fade this box out, and fade in another... Or something along lines of a carousel.
  }, {
    duration: 2000,
    specialEasing: {
      width: 'linear',
      height: 'easeOutBounce'
    },
    complete: function() {
      $(this).after('// I'm trying to display here another box, but not sure how I can achieve this? The entire <div> box code is quite long to paste here.');
    }
  });
});
</script>

Just below it, I have my box...

<div id="lmovlb" class="ovlBox"> <!-- Content, lots of it... -->
<div style="display: block;" class="lft_btn"></div>
<div style="display: block;" class="rgt_btn"></div>
</div>

Here is a jsfiddle that demonstrates (excuse the terrible css). Note that as I said before, you should wrap your code in a function and call it on page load. Additionally, use an external js file, if possible.

Here is an example of how this can be accomplished:

var yourFunc = function() {
    $('.rgt_btn').click(function() {
        $('.ovlBox').animate({
            opacity: 0.0
        }, {
            duration: 2000,
            specialEasing: {
                width: 'linear',
                height: 'easeOutBounce'
            },
            complete: function() {
                alert("hello");
            }
        });
    });
}
$(document).ready(yourFunc);
