I am trying to toggle content based on toggling links. Here is the link and content code:
- <<a href="#" class="portLink Used" id="description" style="float: left;">DESCRIPTION</a>
- <a href="#" class="portLink" id="specifications" style="float: right;">SPECIFICATIONS</a>
- <<div class="textDescription" style="clear: both;"><p>Test 1</p></div>
- <div class="textSpecification"><p>Test 2</p></div>
Now when I click the link for Specifications, I want it to show the next specifications text and hide the description text. Same thing with Descriptions, only in reverse. Here is the code I have to do that:
- < $('.textSpecification').hide();
-
- < $('.portLink').click(function() {
- if(!$(this).hasClass("Used")) {
- if($(this).attr('id') == "description") {
- $(this).next().toggleClass("Used");
- $(this).next('.textDescription').show();
- $(this).next('.textSpecification').hide();
- } else {
- $(this).prev().toggleClass("Used");
- $(this).next('.textDescription').hide();
- $(this).next('.textSpecification').show();
- }
- $(this).toggleClass("Used");
- }
- });
Now the problem I am having is with " $(this).next('.textDescription').hide(); ". What am I doing wrong. I was under the impression that it would select the next object with the class of textDescription and hide it... but it isn't
