JavaScript (jQuery?): Toggle multiple classes with one click

Question

When the user clicks div.togglethis, I need two things to happen:

1. Add an \"active\" class to div.togglethis

2. Add a \"show\" class to an outside

Answer 1

You should look at jQuery's addClass, removeClass, toggleClass, and hasClass methods (API references here, here, here, and here).

You would call these methods in the click handler for div.togglethis. Give this a try and post another question if you get stuck.
