hasClass doesn't fire up

Question

I have a bootstrap navbar,whenever and I have a button ,when I click the button the navbar items get displayed/hidden. I have a toggleClass("foo") in the click of the button and the class also gets added,but when I try to do hasClass("foo") it does not work.

$(".navbar-toggler").click(function () {
    $('.selectedMenu').remove();
    $(this).toggleClass('active closed');
    if ($(this).hasClass(".active")) {
        alert("as");
    }
});

Answer 1

You don't need the class selector (.) when using hasClass

Change

$(this).hasClass(".active")

to

$(this).hasClass("active")

hasClass
