jQuery toggleClass example
The toggleClass() method means if matched elements do not have the class name, then add it; if matched elements already have the class name, then remove it.
Let see an example, a simple ‘p’ tag.
<p>This is paragraph</p>
Call $(‘p’).toggleClass(‘highlight’), it will add a highlight class to the ‘p’ tag.
<p class="highlight">This is paragraph</p>
Call $(‘p’).toggleClass(‘highlight’) again, it will remove the highlight class from the ‘p’ tag.
<p>This is paragraph</p>
The toggleClass() is equivalent to the following jQuery codes as well.
if ($('p').is('.highlight')) {
$('p').removeClass('highlight');
}
else{
$('p').addClass('highlight');
}
