Hi there Δημήτρης,
The two .toggle() methods are very different (and, therefore, often
confusing to new users of jQuery):
The first one toggles the show and hide effects: for example,
.toggle('slow')
The second one is a compound event handler that triggers 2
alternating functions: for example,
.toggle(function() {
// Stuff to do every *odd* time the element is clicked;
}, function() {
// Stuff to do every *even* time the element is clicked;
});
It looks like you're trying to trigger an even handler inside an
event handler?
Please try this instead:
$(function(){
$('.desc span:first-child').toggle(function() {
$(this).next().hide();
}, function() {
$(this).next().show();
});
});
If all you are doing is hiding and showing the next sibling element,
though, you could do the same thing this way:
$(function(){
$('.desc span:first-child').bind('click', function() {
$(this).next().toggle();
});
});
Hope that helps.
--Karl

Hello,
I am new to jquery and I am having a problem with toggle( fn, fn).
The code below does not seem to work (no errors though). But if I
call toggle() with no arguments, it works fine. The thing is, I
need to do different things on each click. Might this be a bug?
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('.desc span:first-child')
.bind("click", function(){
$(this)
.next()
.toggle( function(){ $(this).hide(); },
function(){ $(this).show(); } );
});
});
</script>
I am using it with this markup:
<div class="row">
<div class="cell desc" id="s_desc">
<span id="s_desc_caption">description:</span>
<span id="s_desc_content">lorem ipsum...</span>
</div>
</div>
Thank you.
