Basically, I want 8 radio buttons. And if one radio button is selected then a div is shown below. If another button is selected another div is shown. Only one div shown at a time and if no button selected (initially) then no divs shown.
This is my HTML which is fairly standard, I'm not trying to improve this for what I need.
<form id='group'>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="sim-micro-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="sim-mini-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="sim-maxi-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="sim-mega-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="phone-smart-micro-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="phone-smart-mini-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="phone-smart-btn"/></label>
<label><input type="radio" name="group1" class="phone-smart-maxi-btn"/></label>
</form>
<div class="billpay-internet-add-ons">
<div class="sim-micro-desktop">sim-micro</div>
<div class="sim-mini-desktop">sim-mini</div>
<div class="sim-maxi-desktop">sim-maxi</div>
<div class="sim-mega-desktop">sim-mega</div>
<div class="phone-smart-micro-desktop">phone-smart-micro</div>
<div class="phone-smart-mini-desktop">phone-smart-mini</div>
<div class="phone-smart-desktop">phone-smart</div>
<div class="phone-smart-maxi-desktop">phone-smart-maxi</div>
</div>
However this is my script and it seems fairly hectic and I'm wondering before I move on is there a way to do this a bit more simple?
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.sim-micro-desktop').hide();
$('.sim-mini-desktop').hide();
$('.sim-maxi-desktop').hide();
$('.sim-mega-desktop').hide();
$('.phone-smart-micro-desktop').hide();
$('.phone-smart-mini-desktop').hide();
$('.phone-smart-desktop').hide();
$('.phone-smart-maxi-desktop').hide();
$('form#group').click(function(){
if($('.sim-micro-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.sim-micro-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.sim-micro-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.sim-mini-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.sim-mini-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.sim-mini-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.sim-maxi-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.sim-maxi-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.sim-maxi-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.sim-mega-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.sim-mega-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.sim-mega-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.phone-smart-micro-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.phone-smart-micro-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.phone-smart-micro-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.phone-smart-mini-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.phone-smart-mini-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.phone-smart-mini-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.phone-smart-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.phone-smart-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.phone-smart-desktop').hide();
}
if($('.phone-smart-maxi-btn').is(":checked")){
$('.phone-smart-maxi-desktop').show();
} else {
$('.phone-smart-maxi-desktop').hide();
}
});
});
Firstly put shared classes on both the radio
buttons and the div
elements which show the content. In my example I've used trigger
and content
respectively. Then add a data
attribute to the radio to identify which div should be shown on click.
Shortened example:
<form id='group'>
<label>
<input type="radio" name="group1" class="sim-micro-btn trigger" data-rel="sim-micro-desktop" />
</label>
</form>
<div class="billpay-internet-add-ons">
<div class="sim-micro-desktop content">sim-micro</div>
</div>
Then you only need 1 click handler like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('.trigger').click(function() {
$('.content').hide();
$('.' + $(this).data('rel')).show();
});
});
You can also then use CSS to hide the div
elements without jQuery - styling should always be done in CSS anyway as it's a much better separation of concerns.
.content {
display: none;
}
