If I call .hide()
on an element, will/can jQuery select it in a normal dom selector.
If jQuery does normally select hidden elements, what is the proper way to select only visible elements. Can I use a css selector, or is there a more valid way of doing this?
You can simply use the jQuery :visible or :hidden selector to select all the visible or hidden elements in an HTML page. The jQuery :visible selector considered an element visible if they consume space in the document.
The hide() method hides the selected elements. Tip: This is similar to the CSS property display:none.
Yes, hidden/toggle will hide elements by setting the css display . When hidden, elements can not receive clicks.
To achieve the best performance when using :visible to select elements, first select the elements using a pure CSS selector, then use . filter(":visible") . Using this selector heavily can have performance implications, as it may force the browser to re-render the page before it can determine visibility.
Yes. The hide
function only stores the current value of the display css property of your element, then set it to none
. So the dom selectors will not be affected by it unless they try to match elements with a particular display
css value.

Have a look at the jQuery hide
function documentation.
Yes it will count hidden elements.
