I am using the following HTML code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Project Quiz</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="z/baseCss.CSS">
<script src="/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="/baseJS.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id=header></div>
<div id=contain>
<h1>Welcome to my web application</br>
Please enter your name, click 'continue' and have fun</h1>
<form>
<input type="text" id="name" value="John Doe"/>
</form>
<div class="awesome">Continue</div><br/>
</div>
<div id=footer></div>
</body>
</html>
and a code of jQuery:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("input")
.focus(function(){
$(this).css('outline-color','#559FFF');
$(this).blur(function(){
$(this).css("outline-color","#FF0000");
});
});
$("input").click(function(){
var value = $(this).val(function(){
$(this).html("");
});
});
$(".awesome").click(function(){
b._slide(1000);
});
var b = $("div:nth-child(2)");
alert(b);
});
My problem is that I can't figure it out how to select all children of <div id="contain"> and just make them fade out when I click my div button which is the one with the "awesome" class.
This is what I have tried so far:
$(".contain").each(function(){
$(this).fadeOut(1000);
});
but it didnt work also i tried:
$(".contain").children(function(){
$(this).fadeOut(1000);
});
Same result here.
What am I doing wrong? I only need to fadeOut the content of <div id="contain"> and keep everything else the same as it is.
You need to use:
$("#contain").children().fadeOut(1000);
$(this) is your selector.children() selects all the children of an element.fadeOut(1000) fades out the current selectionYour attempts were wrong because:
$(".contain").each(function(){ $(this).fadeOut(1000); });
Selects all the elements with class .contain and hides them
$(".contain").children(function(){ $(this).fadeOut(1000); });
Selects the elements with class .contain, and then you're passing a function to .children() which it does not handle.
Note, in your case contain is an ID and not a class.
