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.

You could do like this, if you want to display and hide particular div on click of button.
<style>
.hidden{
display:none;
}
.unhidden{
display:block;
}
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">
function unhide(clickedButton, divID) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
if(item.className=='hidden'){
item.className = 'unhidden' ;
clickedButton.value = 'hide'
}else{
item.className = 'hidden';
clickedButton.value = 'unhide'
}
}}
</script>
<body>
<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>
<input type="button" onclick="unhide(this, 'about') " value="unhide">
</body>
UPDATE: Pass the other div id which you want to make disappear on click of div one. Please update your code with below's code.
SCRIPT
<script type="text/javascript">
function unhide(divID, otherDivId) {
var item = document.getElementById(divID);
if (item) {
item.className=(item.className=='hidden')?'unhidden':'hidden';
}
document.getElementById(otherDivId).className = 'hidden';
}
</script>
HTML
<p style="padding-top:20px">
<a href="javascript:unhide('link', 'about')" class="button">This is a link</a><br><br>
<a href="javascript:unhide('about', 'link')" class="button">About</a>
</p>
I don't understand your question properly. But if you are trying to make different div
elements visible upon clicking different links, then this is what you should do:
<div id = "anchor-div">
<ul>
<li> <a id="about-anchor" href="javascript:;"> About</a> </li>
<li> <a id="help-anchor" href="javascript:;"> Help </a> </li>
</ul>
</div>
<div id="content-div">
<div id="about-content"></div>
<div id="help-content"></div>
</div>
$(document).ready(function(){
//if you wish to keep both the divs hidden by default then dont forget to hide //them
$("#help-content").hide();
$("#about-content").hide();
$("#about-anchor").click(function(){
$("#help-content").hide();
$("#about-content").show();
});
$("#help-anchor").click(function(){
$("#help-content").show();
$("#about-content").hide();
});
});
Also don't forget to add jQuery library.
