Easy checkbox toggling with jQuery
So I needed to have a regular form checkbox toggle the visibility of a div in my webpage today. It turned out jQuery supports the concept of toggling visibility via .toggle(), which I didn’t realise until I looked it up. And so you can support clicking or even keyboard changing of the checkbox via the change event:
$("#checkbox").change(function() {
$("#areaToToggle").toggle();
});
Pretty sweet, obviously the div should be hidden to begin with. We could add another line after the change event:
$("#areaToToggle").hide();
Too easy
