Hi Zac,
You just need to add one line -- $(this).toggleClass('yourClass'); --
where "yourClass" is the class you want to toggle on and off.
You should also add return false after that line so that the default
click behavior doesn't occur.
jQuery.fn.fadeToggle = function(speed, easing, callback) {
return this.animate({opacity: 'toggle'}, speed, easing, callback);
};
$(function() {
$('a.aboutlink').click(function() {
$('.aboutbox').fadeToggle();
$(this).toggleClass('yourClass');
return false;
});
});

Hi.. I am trying to have it so my navigation toggle hidden boxes on
the site. I want it so the link toggles the box on and off, as well
as having the link itself have a class toggled on and off (a
background color).
So far I have the toggling box...
jQuery.fn.fadeToggle = function(speed, easing, callback) {
return this.animate({opacity: 'toggle'}, speed, easing, callback);
};
$(function() {
$('a.aboutlink').click(function() {
$('.aboutbox').fadeToggle();
});
});
.aboutbox {
background: #151515;
padding: 50px;
border: 2px solid #000;
display: none;
}
But I am not sure how I would also have the link itself (.aboutlink)
have a class toggled on and off. simultaneously. Can someone please
help me write this? I am very new and just learning so would really
appreciate some help.
Thanks,
Zac
