How to toggle font awesome icon on click?

问题:

I am using font awesome 'plus' icon on expandable categories list items. When they are in expanded state i want to show a 'minus' sign'

HTML

<ul id="category-tabs">
    <li><a href="javascript:void"><i class="fa fa-fw"></i>Category 1</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 3</a></li>
        </ul>
    </li>
</ul>

Jquery

$('#category-tabs li a').click(function(){
    $(this).next('ul').slideToggle('500');
});

回答1:

You can toggle the class of the i element within the clicked anchor like

<i class="fa fa-plus-circle"></i>

then

$('#category-tabs li a').click(function(){
    $(this).next('ul').slideToggle('500');
    $(this).find('i').toggleClass('fa-plus-circle fa-minus-circle')
});

Demo: Fiddle

回答2:

Simply call jQuery's toggleClass() on the i element contained within your a element(s) to toggle either the plus and minus icons:

...click(function() {
    $(this).find('i').toggleClass('fa-minus-circle fa-plus-circle');
});

Note that this assumes that a class of fa-plus-circle is added to your i element by default.

You can change the code by using class definition for the i element:

<a href="javascript:void"><i class="fa fa-plus-circle"></i>Category 1</a>

Then you can switch the classes rapresenting the plus/minus state using toggleClass with multiple classes:

$('#category-tabs li a').click(function(){
    $(this).next('ul').slideToggle('500');
    $(this).find('i').toggleClass('fa-plus-circle fa-minus-circle');
});

Generally and simply it works like this:

<script>
            $(document).ready(function () {
                $('i').click(function () {
                    $(this).toggleClass('fa-plus-square fa-minus-square');
                });
            });
</script>

<ul id="category-tabs">
    <li><a href="javascript:void"><i class="fa fa-plus-circle"></i>Category 1</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 1</a></li>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 2</a></li>
            <li><a href="javascript:void">item 3</a></li>
        </ul>
    </li> </ul>

//Jquery

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('li').click(function() {
      $('i').toggleClass('fa-plus-square fa-minus-square');
    });
  });
