dequeue( )

Removes a queued function from the front of the queue and executes it.

Examples:
Use dequeue to end a custom queue function which allows the queue to keep going.

    $("button").click(function () {
      $("div").animate({left:'+=200px'}, 2000);
      $("div").animate({top:'0px'}, 600);
      $("div").queue(function () {
        $(this).toggleClass("red");
        $(this).dequeue();
      });
      $("div").animate({left:'10px', top:'30px'}, 700);
    });
