I can get the navigation menu to appear when I click on the button, but I can't make it disappear.
Here's the code:
const navButton = document.getElementById("nav-btn");
const menu = document.getElementById("nav-menu");
const all = document.getElementsByTagName("body");
const menuActive = () => {
if (menu.style.display = "none") {
menu.style.display = "block";
}
}
const menuDeactive = () => {
if (menu.style.display = "block") {
menu.style.display = "none";
}
}
navButton.addEventListener("click", menuActive);
all.addEventListener("click", menuDeactive);
Use == to compare.
Also, document.getElementsByTagName("body") is redundant. There can only be one body tag.
const navButton = document.getElementById("nav-btn");
const menu = document.getElementById("nav-menu");
const all = document.getElementsByTagName("body");
const menuActive = () => {
if (menu.style.display == "none") {
menu.style.display = "block";
}
}
const menuDeactive = () => {
if (menu.style.display == "block") {
menu.style.display = "none";
}
}
navButton.addEventListener("click", menuActive);
document.body.addEventListener("click", menuDeactive);
I am trying to figure out how to make this code significantly cleaner. I've tried multiple things but nothing seems to work.
toggle1.onclick = function() {
var div = document.getElementById('toggle-content1');
if (div.style.display !== 'none') {
div.style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById("arrow1").className = "arrow-right";
}
else {
div.style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById("arrow1").className = "arrow-down";
}
};
toggle2.onclick = function() {
var div = document.getElementById('toggle-content2');
if (div.style.display !== 'none') {
div.style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById("arrow2").className = "arrow-right";
}
else {
div.style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById("arrow2").className = "arrow-down";
}
};
toggle3.onclick = function() {
var div = document.getElementById('toggle-content3');
if (div.style.display !== 'none') {
div.style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById("arrow3").className = "arrow-right";
}
else {
div.style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById("arrow3").className = "arrow-down";
}
};
If anyone has any tips or learning resources that I can look at I would really appreciate some assistance! From what I understand, I need to pull the number somehow and then attach it into the toggle function?
Thank you!
var toggle1 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch1');
var toggle2 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch2');
var toggle3 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch3');
function handler(divId) {
var div = document.getElementById(divId);
div.style.display = div.style.display !== 'none' ? 'none' : 'block';
};
toggle1.onclick = handler.bind('toggle-content1');
toggle2.onclick = handler.bind('toggle-content2');
toggle3.onclick = handler.bind('toggle-content3');
or
var toggle1 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch1');
var switches = {
'toggle-switch1': 'toggle-content1',
'toggle-switch2': 'toggle-content2',
'toggle-switch3': 'toggle-content3',
};
toggle1.parentElement.onclick = function(event) {
if (switches[event.target.id]) {
var div = document.getElementById(switches[event.target.id]);
div.style.display = div.style.display !== 'none' ? 'none' : 'block';
}
}
or you can specify on toggle-switch1 and toggle-switch2 and toggle-switch3 appropriate target names in data-switchTarget attribute, i.e. toggle-content1 for toggle-switch1, toggle-content2 for toggle-switch2 and toggle-content3 for toggle-switchTarget, e.g.:
<div id='toggle-switch1' data-switchTarget='toggle-content1'>...</div>
and code for that will be:
var toggle1 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch1');
toggle1.parentElement.onclick = function(event) {
if (event.target.dataset.switchTarget) {
var div = document.getElementById(event.target.dataset.switchTarget);
div.style.display = div.style.display !== 'none' ? 'none' : 'block';
}
}
upd: you have just updated question, so in that case you can use:
var toggle1 = document.getElementById('toggle-switch1');
var switches = {
'toggle-switch1': {content: 'toggle-content1', arrow: 'arrow1'},
'toggle-switch2': {content: 'toggle-content2', arrow: 'arrow2'},
'toggle-switch3': {content: 'toggle-content3', arrow: 'arrow3'},
};
toggle1.parentElement.onclick = function(event) {
if (switches[event.target.id]) {
var div = document.getElementById(switches[event.target.id].content);
var isDivDisplayed = div.style.display !== 'none';
div.style.display = isDivDisplayed ? 'none' : 'block';
document.getElementById(switches[event.target.id].arrow).className = isDivDisplayed ? 'arrow-right' : 'arrow-down';
}
}
i am trying to show and hide a div on click of a checkbox but it shows an error of checktwelve or checkten is undefined.please help me out here
function hided2(checkten) {
if (checkten.checked == true) {
document.getElementById("d2").style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById("d1").style.display = 'none';
checktwelve.checked = false;
}
else {
document.getElementById("d2").style.display = 'none';

You haven't defined these variables.
Onclick="hided1(checktwelve)"
tries to find checktwelve in global scope and can't find it.
I need to show a particular div when a button is clicked, only if the url is on a certain members profile. If its not on a profile page show another div that will display an error message. I have written it out extra long because I'm not that great at javascript. I'm having 2 problems with the code below:
1) only the first url will show the correct div not the url after the or (||)?
2) the else code that should show the error message shows up no matter what page you're on?
Please help.
function showdiv() {
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/AA") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/AA/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('AA').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
}
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/BB") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/BB/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('BB').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('BB').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('BB').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('BB').style.display = 'block';
}
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/CC") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/CC/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('CC').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('CC').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('CC').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('CC').style.display = 'block';
}
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/DD") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/DD/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('DD').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('DD').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('DD').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('DD').style.display = 'block';
}
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/EE") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/EE/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('EE').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('EE').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('EE').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('EE').style.display = 'block';
}
if ((window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/FF") || (window.location.href == "http://google.com/profile/FF/?xg_source=profiles_memberList")) {
document.getElementById('FF').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('FF').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('FF').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('FF').style.display = 'block';
}
else {
document.getElementById('error').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('error').style.display == 'none') document.getElementById('error').style.display = 'block';
else document.getElementById('error').style.display = 'block';
}
}
That code will be a nightmare to maintain. You might have better luck structuring it more like this:
function getId() {
var href = window.location.href;
if (href.indexOf('?') != -1) {
//remove any url parameters
href = href.substring(0, href.indexOf('?'));
}
if (href.charAt(href.length - 1) == '/') {
//check for a trailing '/', and remove it if necessary
href = href.substring(0, href.length - 1);
}
var parts = href.split("/");
return parts[parts.length - 1]; //last array element should contain the id
}
function showdiv(){
var id = getId();
var elem = document.getElementById(id);
if (elem) {
if (elem.style.display == 'none') {
elem.style.display = 'block';
}
else {
elem.style.display = 'none';
}
}
else {
if (document.getElementById('error').style.display == 'none') {
document.getElementById('error').style.display='block';
}
else {
document.getElementById('error').style.display='none';
}
}
}
You should work out the logic first.
This code makes no sense at all.
document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
if (document.getElementById('AA').style.display == 'none') {
document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
}
else {
document.getElementById('AA').style.display = 'block';
}
Structurally, it is similar to this code (simplified and with comments)
var a = 'block';
// this if will never be true, because we just set a to "block"
if (a == 'none') {
a = 'block';
}
// this else will always execute and set a to "block" again.
// something that was already done in the first line.
else {
a = 'block';
}
Also try to factor our the repeating parts of your code as #aroth has nicely demonstrated.

I think there must be a really simple way to make these functions into a single one using jquery. Any suggestion?
There are many ways you can go.
First, instead of document.getElementbyId('something'), in jQuery you can use $('#something'). Instead of using style.display = block and style.display = none, the jQuery way is:
$('#something').hide();
$('#something').show();
or even:
$('#something').toggle();
Next, rather than identify long lists of items by their individual IDs, hopefully your page is structured so you can select by class, or by an enclosing container. If you have ten elements to hide, and they're all inside a div container, don't select each one by ID for hiding. Select the container:
$('#container').find('.setOne').hide(); // assume class "setOne" on all
// elements in a particular group
$('#container_of_datatable2').hide(); // if hiding the container works for you
$('#container_of_datatable2')
.find('table, div') // to hide tables or divs within the specific container
.hide();
If the container approach doesn't work for you (your IDs seem to almost but not quite fit a fixed pattern), you can set up arrays containing selectors for the IDs that work together.
var setOne = ['#datatable4','#adddiv','#imagebuttondiv','#etc'];
var setTwo = ['#something','#something-else','#etc2'];
and then use those something like this:
$( setOne.join(",") ).hide();
It looks like you're trying to wrap your code in functions that have meaningful (to you) names. But those function names seem to be related more closely to the kinds of objects you'll be showing and hiding, than to the business rule. So perhaps instead of HideImageButtonDivclose1forfollowup(), you might have:
function beginFollowup(){
$( setOne.join(",") ).hide();
$( setFive.join(",") ).show();
...etc...
}
So when you actually sequence these functions and behaviors, your code will be clearer:
beginFollowup();
endFollowup();
if( something ) {
beginSomeOtherThing();
}
Just some ideas to get you started.
jQuery works with a selector and returns an array of elements. You simply need to pass a selector that selects all your elements and call hide(). Let's say all your elements had the "foo" CSS class e.g. <div class='foo'/>, you'd write $('.foo').hide(). Let's say you had two elements with IDs of "thing1" and "thing2". Your selector would be a little different, but you'd still call hide() on the returned array of elements: $('#thing1, #thing2').hide(). show() and hide() modify the display property behind the scenes, you can also modify it directly, for example: $('#thing').css('display', 'block'). Check the jQuery API for more details. Add jQuery to your page, and play around in Firebug console, selecting elements, and hiding and showing them.
How about this:
/**
* Shows or hides elements specified by array of element IDs,
* #param bShow true if you want to show the elements, hide otherwise
*/
function showHide(arrElemIds, bShow) {
$.each(arrElemIds, function(idx, elemId) {
if(!!bShow) {
$("#" + elemId).show();
}else {
$("#" + elemId).hide();
}
}
}
Then use as:
showHide(["adddiv", "ImageButtonDiv"]); //hide
showHide(["datatable2", "ImageButtonDiv2", "close1"], true); // show
// ...and so on
Edit:
On second thought, I'd rather you have separate functions to show and hide:
/**
* Shows specified by array of element IDs,
*/
function show(arrElemIds) {
$.each(arrElemIds, function(idx, elemId) {
$("#" + elemId).show();
}
}
/**
* Hides elements specified by array of element IDs,
*/
function hide(arrElemIds) {
$.each(arrElemIds, function(idx, elemId) {
$("#" + elemId).hide();
}
}
hide(["adddiv", "ImageButtonDiv"]); //hide
show(["datatable2", "ImageButtonDiv2", "close1"]); // show
