Jquery Hide and Show

Using jQuery, one has the capability to conceal and reveal HTML elements effortlessly through the utilization of the hide() and show() methods.

$("#hide_id").click(function(){
  $("p").hide();
});

$("#show").click(function(){
  $("p").show();
});

$(selector).hide(speed,callback);

$(selector).show(speed,callback);

The optional speed parameter specifies the speed of the hiding/showing, and can take the following values: “slow”, “fast”, or milliseconds.

The optional callback parameter is a function to be executed after the hide() or show() method completes (you will learn more about callback functions in a later chapter).

The following example demonstrates the speed parameter with hide():

$("button").click(function(){
  $("p").hide(1000);
});

You can also toggle between hiding and showing an element with the toggle() method.

Shown elements are hidden and hidden elements are shown:

$("button").click(function(){
  $("p").toggle();
});

$(selector).toggle(speed,callback);

The optional speed parameter can take the following values: “slow”, “fast”, or milliseconds.
