My goal is to have #box2
appear when I click on #box1
but when you click on something other than #box2
, it will display none and only #box1
will show.
Here are my 2 boxes, they are just 2 styled divs:
var condition;
$(document).click(function() {
if (condition === 'block') {
$(":not(#box2)").click(function() {
$("#box2").hide();
});
}
})
$('#box1').click(function(e) {
$('#box2').css('display', 'block');
condition = 'block';
});
$('#box2').click(function(e) {
$('#box2').css('display', 'none');
condition = 'none';
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="box1" style="width: 300px; height: 300px; background-color: red; margin-left: 100px; margin-bottom: 50px; position: absolute;">
</div>
<div id="box2" style="width: 300px; height: 300px; background-color: blue; margin-left: 150px; display: none; position: absolute;">
</div>
This current code works correctly the first time but after that, it wont run again. I am just wondering if there is a reset function or where I am going wrong?
Really what I want to do is make this work on an ipad so when the user clicks/taps away from the box, it will close. If there are better ways to do this on the Ipad tablet, please let me know!!
Any ideas?
Don't overcomplicate things. This is all the javascript you need, get rid of everything else:
$(document).click(function () {
$('#box2').hide();
});
$('#box1').click(function (e) {
e.stopPropagation();
$('#box2').show();
});
