How to Create a Toggle Effect for a Div with jQuery

jQuery Toggle Effect Example

This guide demonstrates how to use jQuery to create a simple toggle effect. The example includes a button to show or hide a div and a link inside the div to close it.

Code Example

Here’s a straightforward example of how to use jQuery for toggling a div:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <meta name="description" content="Learn how to create a simple toggle effect with jQuery. This guide includes a concise code example and clear explanations.">
    <meta name="keywords" content="jQuery, toggle, JavaScript, web development">
    <title>jQuery Toggle Effect Example</title>
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.6.0.min.js"></script>
    <script>
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $("#toggleButton").click(function() {
            $("#toggleDiv").slideToggle();
        });
        $("#toggleDiv a").click(function() {
            $("#toggleDiv").slideUp();
        });
    });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <button id="toggleButton">Toggle Div</button>
    <div id="toggleDiv" style="display: none;">
        <a href="#">Close</a>
        <p>This is the content inside the div.</p>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

How It Works

This code uses jQuery to manage the visibility of a div:

  • Include jQuery: The script tag includes jQuery from a CDN.
  • Toggle Button: The button with ID toggleButton toggles the visibility of the div with ID toggleDiv.
  • Close Link: The link inside toggleDiv hides the div when clicked.

Persisting jqGrid State with Cookies

Persisting jqGrid State with Cookies jqGrid is an excellent jQuery plugin for displaying a grid. To enhance user experience, we added some filter possibilities and used jQuery to update the URL where data was fetched from. However, when users navigated away from the grid and returned, it would reset to its start position, losing any filtering or sorting they had set. To solve this, we needed to store the user's selections. Here are two JavaScript functions that achieve this using cookies: function saveGridToCookie(name, grid) { var gridInfo = new Object(); name = name + window.location.pathname; gridInfo.url = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'url'); gridInfo.sortname = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'sortname'); gridInfo.sortorder = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'sortorder'); gridInfo.selrow = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selro...
