My code works to a point. What I want is that when this if statement is false, the
from php you can invoke jquery like this but my 2nd method is much cleaner and better for php
if($switchView) :?>
<script>$('.container').hide();</script>
<script>$('.confirm').show();</script>
<?php endif;
another way is to initiate your class and dynamically invoke the condition like this
$registerForm ='block';
then in your html use this
<div class="col" style="display: <?= $registerForm?>">
now you can play with the view with if and else easily without having a messed code example
if($condition) registerForm = 'none';
Make sure you use 'block' to show and 'none' to hide. This is far the easiest way with php
You can use css or js for hiding a div. In else statement you can write it as:
else{
?>
<style type="text/css">#divId{
display:none;
}</style>
<?php
}
Or in jQuery
else{
?>
<script type="text/javascript">$('#divId').hide()</script>
<?php
}
Or in javascript
else{
?>
<script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('divId').style.display = 'none';</script>
<?php
}
Use show/hide method as below
$("div").show();//To Show
$("div").hide();//To Hide
<?php
$divStyle=''; // show div
// add condition
if($variable == '1'){
$divStyle='style="display:none;"'; //hide div
}
print'<div '.$divStyle.'>Div to hide</div>';
?>
A fresh look at this(possibly)
in your php:
else{
$hidemydiv = "hide";
}
And then later in your html code:
<div class='<?php echo $hidemydiv ?>' > maybe show or hide this</div>
in this way your php remains quite clean
Probably the easiest to hide a div and show a div in PHP based on a variables and the operator.
<?php
$query3 = mysql_query($query3);
$numrows = mysql_num_rows($query3);
?>
<html>
<?php if($numrows > null){ ?>
no meow :-(
<?php } ?>
<?php if($numrows < null){ ?>
lots of meow
<?php } ?>
</html>
Here is my original code before adding your requirements:
<?php
$address = 'meow';
?>
<?php if($address == null){ ?>
no meow :-(
<?php } ?>
<?php if($address != null){ ?>
lots of meow
<?php } ?>
