Hide / Show Panel on client side with button click using java script

Saturday, April 4, 2009
To hide or show a panel in javascript we use client Id of the control to target the panel and also set style property to show or hide the panel.



<head runat="server">
    <title>show hide on client side</title>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
        function click_button()
        {
            if(document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display == 'none')
            {
                document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display = 'block';
                document.getElementById('btnshowHide').value = 'hide';
            }
            else 
            {
                document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display = 'none';
                document.getElementById('btnshowHide').value = 'show';
            }
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
    <input id="btnshowHide" type="button" value="hide" onclick="click_button();" />
    <asp:Panel ID="Panel1" runat="server" Height="50px" Width="125px">
        click hide to hide this text
    </asp:Panel>    
    </div>
    </form>
</body>



To enable client side click we are using a html button


<input id="btnshowHide" type="button" value="show" onclick="click_button();" />



In the method click_button() we are accessing the panel to hide using the client id of the control


document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display



so now to hide we set the style as 'none'


document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display = 'none';


and to show it back we set style as 'block'


document.getElementById('<%=Panel1.ClientID%>').style.display = 'block';



Also we toggle the text of the button between show and hide


document.getElementById('btnshowHide').value = 'show';



image when intially loaded


when hide is clicked, this is how shown, every thing done on client side
