hey all
I have an asp.net repeater that generates divs that have a class called "newsItem" assigned to them
what I wanna do is write a function that hides all the divs of the above mentioned class except one div based on an integer parameter that i pass to the function

Example:
Lets say i have 5 divs with the class "newsItem"
if I pass the number 1 to the function, I want to show the 2nd div and hide the other 4 divs
thanks all in advance :)

Solution 1

JQuery takes it as an array object which can be accessed with a index. try the below code. it should work

JavaScript

toggleNews = function(newsIndex) {
  $("div.newsItem").hide();
  $($("div.newsItem")[newsIndex]).show();
}
