Hi guys, Am a beginner with Jquery and what i want is as follows. I have a div that should be hidden on default, but when a certain URL parameter is present, then the div is visible.
I am basing the following on this demo : http://sandbox.ajaxcssblog.com/jquery/jquery.url/url-demo.htm I have the following html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <div id="display" style="display:hidden;"> <h2>header</h2> <p>test text</p> </div> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ And i have the following in the head ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <script type="text/javascript" id="demoscript"> $(function(){ $("#display").text($.url.param("loginstatus") || "... nothing yet"); }); </script> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ What i basically want is that when the URL parameter shows index.html?showdiv=yes then the div should be displayed. So it would make sense to put an IF statement in the script as well, the only problem is that i cannot or do not understand how i can modify the JS script in such a way that it does just that. I have tried many variations with IF and ELSE statements but nothing ever seems to work as i am probably missing how to close tags properly etc. Would anyone be willing to steer me in the right direction? -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Show-hide-div-based-on-URL-parameter-tp27576002s27240p27576002.html Sent from the jQuery General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
