## jQuery Hide Method
|
|
|
|
In its simplest form, **.hide()** hides the matched element immediately, with no animation. For example:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$(".myclass").hide()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
will hide all the elements whose class is *myclass*. Any jQuery selector can be used.
|
|
|
|
### .hide() as an animation method
|
|
|
|
Thanks to its options, **.hide()** can animate the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously.
|
|
|
|
* Duration can be provided in milliseconds, or using the literals slow (600 ms) and fast(200ms). for example:
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$("#myobject").hide(800)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* A function can be specified to be called once the animation is complete, once per every matched element. This callback is mainly useful for chaining together different animations. For example
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$("p").hide( "slow", function() {
|
|
$(".titles").hide("fast");
|
|
alert("No more text!");
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
* More options exist, please refer to the official website for further details.
|
|
|
|
### .toggle() method
|
|
|
|
To show / hide elements you can use ```toggle()``` method. If element is hidden ```toggle()``` will show it and vice versa.
|
|
Usage:
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$(".myclass").toggle()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### .slideDown() method
|
|
This method animates the height of the matched elements. This causes lower parts of the page to slide down, making way for the revealed items.
|
|
Usage:
|
|
```javascript
|
|
$(".myclass").slideDown(); //will expand the element with the identifier myclass for 400 ms.
|
|
$(".myclass").slideDown(1000); //will expand the element with the identifier myclass for 1000 ms.
|
|
$(".myclass").slideDown("slow"); //will expand the element with the identifier myclass for 600 ms.
|
|
$(".myclass").slideDown("fast"); //will expand the element with the identifier myclass for 200 ms.
|
|
```
