I'd like a code that shows/hides 3 or more text blocks in javascript. I found this solution here Show/Hide On Click but only works with 2 blocks of text.
html:
<a onclick="showText('text1','text2')" href="javascript:void(0);">Show Text 1</a>
<div id="text1" class="hide"> text1 </div>
<a onclick="showText('text2','text1')" href="javascript:void(0);">Show Text 2</a>
<div id="text2" class="hide"> text2 </div>
CSS:
div.hide { display:none; [your properties]; }
div.show { [your properties]; }
Javascript:
function showText(show,hide)
{
document.getElementById(show).className = "show";
document.getElementById(hide).className = "hide";
}
How can I fix it to make it works for 3 of more texts?
For example, this function will show/hide any number of elements by adding necessary classes:
function showText(showElements, hideElements)
{
for (var i=0;i<showElements.length; i++) {
document.getElementById(showElements[i]).className = "show";
}
for (var i=0;i<hideElements.length; i++) {
document.getElementById(hideElements[i]).className = "hide";
}
}
First parameter is an array that contains element ids that you want to show, and second is another array for the ones you want to hide.
Usage:
showText(['id1', 'id2'], ['id3', 'id4']);

as a JS noob I'm stuck right now and would highly appreciate some help. My goal is to have a JS pagebrowser that works with content generated by my CMS (TYPO3). Content of different pages is rendered in divs with speaking ids; below you have links to these anchors plus a "show all" link. When you klick on a link to a "page" the respective page content div is shown and the others are hidden; if you click on "show all" all the page content divs are shown. However, if I click a page link after having clicked "show all" not all of the other page content divs are hidden as they should. I guess it has something to do with JS processing order but couldn't find out so far.
window.onload = function () {
var pagelinks = document.querySelectorAll("a.subpage-toggle");
for (var i = 0; i < pagelinks.length; i++) {
pagelinks[i].onclick = function () {
// Finding all elements of class 'active' (creates an array of results)
let x = document.getElementsByClassName("active");
// If class 'active' exists, remove it.
if (x.length > 0) {
x[0].classList.remove("active");
}
if ((this.href.split("#")[1]) !== "show-all") {
// add class 'active' if ID matches href of link
document.querySelector("#" + this.href.split("#")[1]).classList.add("active");
} else {
var subpagecontents = document.getElementsByClassName("subpage-content"),
len = subpagecontents !== null ? subpagecontents.length : 0,
j = 0;
for (j; j < len; j++) {
subpagecontents[j].classList.add("active");
}
}
};
}
};
.subpage-toggle {
display: block;
}
.subpage-content {
display: none;
}
.subpage-content.active {
display: block;
}
<div class="main">
<div id="name-of-page-one" class="subpage-content active">
<p>
Content Page 1
</p>
</div>
<div id="page-two-is-cool" class="subpage-content">
<p>
Content Page 2
</p>
</div>
<div id="nickname-of-page-three" class="subpage-content">
<p>
Content Page 3
</p>
</div>
<div class="pageoverview">
<ul>
<li><a class="subpage-toggle" href="#name-of-page-one">Name of page one</a></li>
<li><a class="subpage-toggle" href="#page-two-is-cool">Page two is cool</a></li>
<li><a class="subpage-toggle" href="#nickname-of-page-three">Nickname of page three</a></li>
</ul>
<a class="subpage-toggle" href="#show-all">Show all</a>
</div>
</div>

You need to hide all the previous showing instead of just the first one:
Instead of
x[0].classList.remove("active");
do:
Array.from(x).forEach((element) => element.classList.remove("active"));

Here is the concept of my content being shown/hidden. It also works.

It works in the small html code above. However, it does not work when I apply it to my larger HTML code. Does someone know why?
My goal is to have many list items with spans attached to the reveal answers button.
HTML:
<nav class="Rightbox" id="RightFrench">
<div id="Stage1">
<h1>Stage 1</h1>
<h5> <span class="HighlightBlue">Exercise 1 - </span></h5>
<h5><button class="AnswerTitle" id="AnswersFrenchStage1Ex1">Reveal Answers</button></h5>
<p class="Task">
<span class="HighlightBlue">Translate the following</span>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p> the passeport <textarea></textarea>
<span class="FrenchStage1Ex1">la passeport</span>
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>the passeport <textarea></textarea>
<span class="FrenchStage1Ex1">la passeport</span>
</p>
</li>
</div>
</nav>
Javascript:
window.onload = function() {
var buttons = document.querySelectorAll(".AnswerTitle");
for (var i = 0; i < buttons.length; i++) {
buttons[i].onclick = function() {
var id = this.id.replace(/reveal/, "FrenchStage");
var answers = document.querySelectorAll("." + id);
for (var i = 0; i < answers.length; i++) {
answers[i].style.display = answers[i].style.display == "inline" ? "none" : "inline";
}
}
}
}
CSS:
.Rightbox ul li p span {display:none;}
the problem turns out to be I changed the id of the button, thinking that the javascript was not using the button id. turns out the
var id = this.id.replace(/reveal/, "FrenchStage")
really wanted the button to have an ID containing "reveal"
Hello everybody I would like to hide some divs and display others when I click on a specifiks links.
Actually I did like this :
<html>
<head>
<script>
function loadA(){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="block";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="none";
}
function loadB(){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="block";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="none";
}
function loadC(){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="block";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="none";
}
function loadD(){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="block";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="menu">
A
B
C
D
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is work with me but as you see it's not a good practice and sure there is another way better than this , can you show me please !
A solution without javascript:
.container > div{
display:none
}
.container > div:target{
display:block
}
<div class="menu">
<a href="#A" >A</a>
<a href="#B" >B</a>
<a href="#C" >C</a>
<a href="#D" >D</a>
</div>
<div class="container">
<div id="A" >A content</div>
<div id="B" >B content</div>
<div id="C" >C content</div>
<div id="D" >D content</div>
</div>
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/%3Atarget
https://css-tricks.com/css3-tabs/
You can create one function and reuse it for each element:
function loadDiv(id){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="none";
document.getElementById(id).style.display="block";
}
And pass the correct id into each onclick:
<div class="menu">
A
B
C
D
</div>
Here's how you should do it. No inline javascript, handling click events with an eventListener and wrapping all elements together with a class, making it much less code to write and maintain:
JS:
function divLoader(e){
var hide = document.getElementsByClassName("hideAndShow");
for (var i = 0; i<hide.length;i++) {
hide[i].style.display="none";
}
document.getElementById(e.target.getAttribute('data-link')).style.display="block";
}
var anchors = document.querySelectorAll('.menu > a');
for (var i = 0; i<anchors.length; i++) {
anchors[i].addEventListener('click',divLoader);
}
HTML:
<div class="menu">
A
B
C
D
</div>
<div id="A" class="hideAndShow" style="display:none;">A</div>
<div id="B" class="hideAndShow" style="display:none;">B</div>
<div id="C" class="hideAndShow" style="display:none;">C</div>
<div id="D" class="hideAndShow" style="display:none;">D</div>
In such cases where you have similar repetitive code you can use a common technique called "Abstraction". The main idea is the turn the common code into parameters of a single function in your case it would be:
function loadByID(id){
document.getElementById("A").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("B").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("C").style.display="none";
document.getElementById("D").style.display="none";
document.getElementById(id).style.display="block";
}
However this is also still a little bit redundant, for larger menus and displaying multiple links you can do something like
function loadByIDs(ids){
var links = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
for(var i = 0; i < links.length; i++){
document.getElementById(links[i].id).style.display = none;
}
for each(var id in ids){
document.getElementById(id).style.display = block;
}
}
This will work much better when you have too much links and want to display more than one link at a time (so you will need to pass in an array)
Note: If you are using Jquery you can just use .each() function to get rid of the first for loop
Hope this helps!
I think the best practice in your case is to define a general function that work however the number of links with specific class in my example the class is link, take a look at Working Fiddle.
Now your script will work with dynamic links added in div, you have just to add html without touching the js will detect change.
HTML :
<div class="menu">
A
B
C
D
</div>
JS :
load = function(e){
//select all links
var links = document.getElementsByClassName('link');
//Hide all the links
for (i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
links[i].style.display = "none";
}
//Show clicked link
e.target.style.display = "block";
}
Hope this make sens.
HTML
<body>
<div id="main">
<ul id="nav">
<li>Home</li>
<li>About Us</li>
</ul>
<div id="container">
<div id="wrapper">
<div class="content">
<div id="menu_home">
<h2>Menu 1</h2>
</div>
<div id="menu_about">
<h2>Menu 2</h2>
</div>
</div><!--content-->
</div><!--wrapper-->
</div><!--container-->
</div><!-- main-->
</body>
JS
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#menu_home").slideUp("fast");
$("#menu_about").slideUp("fast");
$("#menu_home").show();
$("#nav a").click(function(){
var id = $(this).attr('id');
id = id.split('_');
$(".content div").slideUp("fast");;
$(".content #menu_"+id[1]).slideToggle("fast");
});
});
Here is the example
function loadA()
{
document.getElementById("A").style.visiblity="show";
document.getElementById("B").style.visiblity="hide";
document.getElementById("C").style.visiblity="hide";
document.getElementById("D").style.visiblity="hide";
}
if visibility dont work,just change the visibility keyword with visible and hide with hidden.
and one more thing,u should not write function for each div..what can u do just pass id of a div which u want to show and hide others..see below
function trigger(id)
{
var alldiv={"A","B","C","D"};
for(i=0;i<alldiv.length;i++)
{
if(alldiv[i]==id)
document.getElementById(id).style.visiblity="show";
else
document.getElementById(alldiv[i]).style.visiblity="hide";
}
}
I have some links that will show a div when clicking it. When clicking another link, it should show the link's associated div and hide the previously shown div.
HTML
Text 1
Text 2
Text 3
<div id="text1" class="unhidden">
This will show up when the Text 1 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text2" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 2 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text3" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 3 link is pressed.
</div>
Javascript
function unhide(divID) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className='unhidden';
}
}
CSS
.hidden { display: none; }
.unhidden { display: block; }
How can I accomplish this?
Try with:
function unhide(divID) {
var unhidden = document.getElementsByClassName('unhidden');
for (var k in unhidden) {
unhidden[k].className='hidden';
}
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className='unhidden';
}
}
You can do something like this :
function unhide(divID) {
var divs = document.getElementsByTagName('div');
foreach(var div in divs){
div.className = 'hidden';
if(div.id == divID)
div.className = 'unhidden';
}
}
Be careful with document.getElementsByTagName('div');, it will return you all divs on your document. You could adapt it using a wrapper.
For example :
HTML
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="text1" class="unhidden">
This will show up when the Text 1 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text2" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 2 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text3" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 3 link is pressed.
</div>
</div>
JS :
var divs = document.getElementById('wrapper').getElementsByTagName('div');
Try this http://jsfiddle.net/L79H7/1/:
function unhide(divID) {
var divIds = [ "text1", "text2", "text3" ];
for ( var i = 0, len = divIds.length; i < len; i++) {
var item = document.getElementById(divIds[i]);
if (item) {
item.className = divID == divIds[i] ? 'unhidden' : 'hidden';
}
}
}
You could also store in an array the names of the divs you want to hide and iterate over it when unhiding one:
var divs= new Array("text1", "text2", "text3");
function unhide(divID) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className='unhidden';
}
for (var i in divs){
if (divs[i] != divID){
item = document.getElementById(divs[i]);
if (item) {
item.className='hidden';
}
}
}
}
JSFiddle
You don't need exactly links for this, but if you insist change it to:
<a href="#" onclick='unhide("text3");'>Text 3</a>
Otherwise you can change it to:
<p onclick="unhide('text1')">Text 1</p>
<p onclick="unhide('text2')">Text 2</p>
<p onclick="unhide('text3')">Text 3</p>
<div id="text1" class="unhidden">
This will show up when the Text 1 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text2" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 2 link is pressed.
</div>
<div id="text3" class="hidden">
This will show up when the Text 3 link is pressed.
</div>
And your function should look like this to add or remove classes:
function unhide(id){
yourElement = document.getElementById(id);
if(yourElement.className == "unhidden"){
yourElement.className = "hidden";
}else{
yourElement.className = "unhidden";
}
}
demo
<div id="text1" class="hidden"> 1 </div>
<div id="text2" class="hidden"> 2 </div>
<div id="text3" class="hidden"> 3 </div>
.hidden{ display:none; }
#text1{ display: block; }
function show(id) {
var item = document.getElementById(id);
var all = document.getElementsByClassName('hidden');
for(var i=0; i<all.length; i++)all[i].style.display = 'none';
if(item)item.style.display = 'block';
}
you can use jquery try the code below and import the jquery library first
$('#text1').show();
$('#text2').hide();
it is the easiest way
First time trying javascript and i cant find a solution about this.
I need a open/close div button.
if div1 is not visible and i press button 1
set it visible
set all other not visible
elseif div1 is visible and i press button 1
set it not visible
this is my code so far...
<script type="text/javascript">
function toggle_visibility(id)
{
if (document.getElementById(id).style.display=='block')
{
document.getElementById(id).style.display='none';
}
else
{
document.getElementById(id).style.display='block';
for (i=0; i<5; i++)
{
document.getElementById(i).style.display='none';
}
}
}
</script>
<button onclick="toggle_visibility(1);">
1
</button>
...
<button onclick="toggle_visibility(5);">
5
</button>
i forgot this ->
<div id="1" style="display:none">
1
</div>
...
<div id="5" style="display:none">
5
</div>
You have no element with a id. And a id must not begin with an number (in (X)HTML, but not HTML5)! If you just want to show one element try my showOnly function.
<script type="text/javascript">
function toggle_visibility(id)
{
var i; // omiting this causes a global variable
if (document.getElementById("a"+id).style.display=='block')
{
document.getElementById("a"+id).style.display='none';
}
else
{
document.getElementById("a"+id).style.display='block';
for (i=1; i<=5; i++)
{
document.getElementById("a"+i).style.display='none';
}
}
}
function showOnly(id) {
for(var i=1; i<=5; i++) {
document.getElementById("a"+i).style.display='none';
}
document.getElementById("a"+id).style.display='block';
}
</script>
<div id="a1" onclick="toggle_visibility(1);">1</div>
<!-- ... -->
<div id="a5" onclick="toggle_visibility(5);">5</div>
See also this fiddle.
You're missing the ID attribute from your div's.
<div id="yourId">
Ideally the ID shouldn't start with a number.
In addition you can use the browser console window to help identify such problems.
