Basically, my code right now keeps a few of the divs I have on my website hidden and then when you click on a link, it makes the divs appear.
I need help so that it so that when I click one link and a div appears and I click on another link, the previous one disappears.
So let's say I click the link 'About', the div appears, good. Then I click on 'Help' and that div just appears OVER 'About' making things messy.
<script type="text/javascript">
function unhide(divID) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className=(item.className=='hidden')?'unhidden':'hidden';
}}
</script>
^That is my code, here is a sample of it in my website:
<div id="about" class="hidden">
<div class="content3">
<p>This is the about section.</p>
<p>It is currently still being worked on.</p>
</div>
</div>
The class 'content3' is just styling in my css file.
.content3 {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
width:750px;
height:600px;
padding:5px;
padding-left:40px;
margin-top:-650px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
UPDATE:
Sorry, I should elaborate more.. I need to be able to basically click a first link and have it show a box of text.
and then click a second link that will hide that box of text associated with the first link and show a new one that is associated with the second link.
This is my FULL code:
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css">
<script type="text/javascript">
function unhide(divID) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className=(item.className=='hidden')?'unhidden':'hidden';
}}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="title">
<p class="text_header">Benjamin Midyette</p>
<p style="margin-top:-50px">Computer/Network Engineer, Web Developer</p>
</div>
<div class="content" align="left">
<p style="padding-top:20px">
<a href="javascript:unhide('link')" class="button">This is a link</a><br><br>

</p>
</div>
<div id="Resume" class="content2"></div>
