I am trying to delete the div on button click but the problem that I need the button to delete the div that it contain to without passing the id of the div to the delete button
so this code at the end should be able to delete the div without passing the id of the div instead it will depend on passing this reference
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$(document).on('mouseenter', '#divbutton', function() {
$(this).find(":button").show();
}).on('mouseleave', '#divbutton', function() {
$(this).find(":button").hide();
});
});
</script>
<style>
#divbutton {
height: 100px;
background: #0000ff;
}
#divbutton2 {
height: 100px;
background: #0000ff;
}
#divbutton3 {
height: 100px;
background: #0000ff;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="divbutton">
<button type="button" style="display: none;" id="i" onclick="document.body.removeChild(document.getElementById('divbutton'))">Hello</button>
</div>
<div id="divbutton2">
<button type="button" style="display: none;" id="i" onclick="document.body.removeChild(document.getElementById('divbutton2'))">Hello </button>
</div>
<div id="divbutton3">
<button type="button" style="display: none;" id="i" onclick="document.body.removeChild(document.getElementById('divbutton3'))">Hello </button>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If you want to know how to use this reference to get hold of the parent element to pass it to removeChild, then it's quite easy, just use parentNode:
<div class="divbutton">
<button type="button" style="display: none;" id="i" onclick="document.body.removeChild(this.parentNode)">Hello</button>
</div>
However, since you are using jQuery it makes sense to make use of it's power:
$(document).on('mouseenter', '.divbutton', function () {
$(this).find(":button").show();
}).on('mouseleave', '.divbutton', function () {
$(this).find(":button").hide();
}).on('click', ':button', function() {
$(this).parent().remove();
});
I also changed ids #divbuttonX to class name .divbutton, CSS becomes simpler in this case too.
