Use the jQuery show()
and hide()
methods
You can simply use the jQuery show()
and hide()
methods to show and hide the div elements based on the selection of radio buttons. The div boxes in the following example are hidden by default using the CSS display
property which value is set to none
.
Let's try this example by selecting the different radio buttons and see how it works:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery Show Hide Elements Using Radio Buttons</title>
<style>
.box{
color: #fff;
padding: 20px;
display: none;
margin-top: 20px;
}
.red{ background: #ff0000; }
.green{ background: #228B22; }
.blue{ background: #0000ff; }
</style>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('input[type="radio"]').click(function(){
var inputValue = $(this).attr("value");
var targetBox = $("." + inputValue);
$(".box").not(targetBox).hide();
$(targetBox).show();
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<label><input type="radio" name="colorRadio" value="red"> red</label>
<label><input type="radio" name="colorRadio" value="green"> green</label>
<label><input type="radio" name="colorRadio" value="blue"> blue</label>
</div>
<div class="red box">You have selected <strong>red radio button</strong> so i am here</div>
<div class="green box">You have selected <strong>green radio button</strong> so i am here</div>
<div class="blue box">You have selected <strong>blue radio button</strong> so i am here</div>
</body>
</html>
