How to show hidden div after hitting submit button in form?

Question

I have simple HTML form with submit button. After hitting this button I would like to the see div#my_id which is not visible before.

Answer 1

Is your HTML contained within the

tag? It is likely that your submit button is submitting the form and causing a page refresh before the JavaScript is executed.

If this is the case, try changing the input type to button to see the effect.

For example:

#my_id {
    display: none;
}
