Shortening The Show/hide Script?

May 28, 2010

I have a simple hide/show script that is doing what I want, but I was wondering if there is an easier way around having to specify show and hide requirements "onclick" each time. Here is what I've got:

Javascript:

<script type="text/javascript">
function show(boxid) {
document.getElementById(boxid).style.display="block";
}

Optimizing String Shortening Algorithm?

Aug 16, 2010

I've written a function that "condenses" a string if it is too long.

function shortenMsg(msg,maxLen){
if (msg.length > maxLen){
var over = msg.length - maxLen, // amount that needs to be trimmed

[Code]....

Each of the methods 1-3 is the amount that that specific method can trim from the string. I'd like to be able to trim as little as possible.

For example, if the string needs 5 characters to be trimmed, and method1 can trim 8 characters, but method3 can trim 6, then method3 should be used. If none of the methods can individually trim the string enough, then I'd like the optimal combination of the methods that will get the job done.

I can't figure out what sort of code structure I need for this (besides a ton of if/else statements). Maybe an array that contains each of the methods, arranged in increasing order....?

Show/hide

Sep 6, 2005

I'd like to have a show/hide widget on my web site, kind of like "show
details" / "hide details" in Google Groups. Is there a tutorial
explaining how to make them? Google's is a bit complex and it's easy to
get something wrong. If the browser does not support the required
features, I want it to generate a completely static page with the
"details" shown automatically.

Show One Div And Hide All

Mar 29, 2010

I have 5 links and 5 divs. When the page loads I've set the visibility of first div to visible and all the rest are hidden. When the user clicks on second link I want to hide all the other divs and show only second. Similarly when the user clicks third link I want to show third div only. You get the idea. Here is what I have so far. Nothing happens when I click the second link.

How To Hide/show Div

Jul 20, 2011

Basically, I need a link that gives the user an option to show the rest of an article, and then a link UNDER the rest of the article to hide a post again. The link needs to work uniquely with each link. Every method I've used so far has worked for one post, and on the next post, when the link is clicked, it just shows the rest of the first post.

Show/hide A Table Row

Jul 23, 2005

I would like to add some javascript to show/hide a certain row of a
table. The first row of the table contain the hyperlink that calls the
javascript the second row is the one i want to show/hide with the
javascript in a toggle fashion.

the problem is a know very little javascript and have become incredibly
frustrated because i went ahead thinking it was going to be like C. its not.

I know i can use these lines to do the actual work:

document.getElementById("row").style.display = "none"; // hides row
document.getElementById("row").style.display = "inline"; // shows row

but I don't think i can use a getElementById exactly because i want to
reference the element via its relationship to the hyperlink that calls
the javascript, i know this can be done. You see there will be several
tables on one page and i want to be able to toggle each one
independently; hopefully with the same bit of javascript.

Show Hide Layers

Apr 16, 2007

Code:

The idea is that the blue help text rechtangle will have to remain
visible when mouse over (because there will be soon links in it) and
invisible when onmouseout.

I have now placed javascript on the small numbered balls and within
the rechtangle itself.

But I have it in a way that when "onmouseout" the blue help rechtangle
will be hidden. But now the onmouseout event is acting like
onmouseover. Any Ideas to do this correctly? So right now when you
onmouseover it it will disappear :S

If I get this working I can start thinking of putting a timeout on the
rechtangle for it to disappear within a couple of seconds after
"onmouseout"

How To Show/hide ALL Objects With A Certain Id?

Jul 20, 2005

I'm using a simple show function, called from a button.

function show(rowId) {
var hideRow = "View_" + rowId
document.getElementById(showRow).style.display ="block";
}

QUESTION: I'm using xsl and can have more than one table row with the
specific rowId, and I want ALL of them to show when the button is
clicked for that rowId. But although the html source is there, I only
get the first row with the rowId.

JQuery :: Hide All But One Div Show Again?

Apr 10, 2011

I have some divs laid on top of each other. By clicking somewehre specific I want to hide all the divs but except for one - which is related to the point i clicked - to show up.Here is my code so far:The function will be called by something like this:

<a href="javascript:void(0)"><img src="album_emilia.jpg" width="90px" height="125px" onclick="setAlbum('emilia')"/><p>Emilia</p></a>
function setAlbum(album) {
$('.right_nav').each(function() {[code].....

All these divs are in the same from the right_nav-class.I guess the problem lies within line 6, where I want to select the div that should show up and is given as the argument of the function.The commented lines are things I already tried, but didn't work either, especially $(this).style seems to be invalid.It does hide all divs as i want, but the one i want to show again doesn't show up. It just stays hidden...

JQuery :: Show/Hide A Div In IE6/7?

Mar 23, 2011

i searched the forum, but did not find a working solution for my problem. IE6/7 are not hiding the divs in the $(document).ready function. Tried also:

$("#closed").css('display', 'none'); document.getElementById('closed').style.display = 'none'; It is working when i add the ID "closed" to the <li>-Element instead of the <div>-Container. All other browsers are working fine.

Show / Hide DIV According To Link URL

Mar 4, 2009

I am pretty new to JS but I've managed to create a function to show and hide a div according to a link's URL, but I am gonna have lots of url's and lots of div's to show and hide, its not a problem to show and hide them, the only trouble is that they stack, if I show div 1, and then press link 2 to show div 2, Div 2 is gonna be below div 1, and what I want is that when I click link 2 to hide div 1 or any other shown divs, I am sure its possible but i don't know how to do it. I think it would be possible by storing the id of the div in a variable, but the only problem is that when I call that function, the variable always changes so it would be a matter of storing the id in a variable outside the function, but i don't know how to do that, or what are the rules?

This is my code:
JS
function showHide(product) {
var el = document.getElementById(product);
el.className = (el.className == 'hide') ? '' : 'hide';
}

HTML
<div id="1" class="hide">Content of Div 1</div>
<div id="2" class="hide">Content of Div 2</div>
<a href="javascript:showHide('1');">Show Hide 1</a>
<a href="javascript:showHide('2');">Show Hide 1</a>

CSS
.hide {
display:none;
}

I need to have the javascript function call in href because of an applet I am using. In resume, the divs are hidden at the start, when I click one link, the div shows, when I click the other link I need the previous div shown to be hidden (class="hide"), and show the new div and so on.

Show / Hide DIV On Different Table Row

Jun 2, 2009

I have a table with three columns (and about 20+ rows). The third column has embedded javascript to show/hide additional information. It works, however when I try to show/hide information on a different table row (except the top), only the top row opens/shows.

Here's my script:
<script language="javascript">
function toggle() {
var ele = document.getElementById("toggleText");
var text = document.getElementById("displayText");
if(ele.style.display == "block") {
ele.style.display = "none";
text.innerHTML = "Show";
}else {
ele.style.display = "block";
text.innerHTML = "Hide";
}}
</script>

And here's my HTML:
</head><body>
<h2>Beaus CD Collection</h2>
<table border="1">
<tr bgcolor="#99CCCC">
<th>Artist:</th>
<th>Album Title:</th>
<th>More Information:</th></tr>
<xsl:for-each select="CATALOG/CD"><tr>
<td><xsl:value-of select="ARTIST"/></td>
<td><xsl:value-of select="TITLE"/></td><td>

<a id="displayText" href="javascript:toggle();">Show</a>
<div id="toggleText" style="display: none">
<ul>
<li>Country: <xsl:value-of select="COUNTRY"/></li>
<li>Record Company: <xsl:value-of select="COMPANY"/></li>
<li>Price: <xsl:value-of select="PRICE"/></li>
<li>Year of Release: <xsl:value-of select="YEAR"/></li>
</ul></div>
</td></tr>
</xsl:for-each>
</table></body></html>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

I didn't form this script myself - I just grabbed it online from a separate source.
