My goal is to create a custom dropdown select box using JavaScript, as it needs to incorporate images. The issue arises when I click on the input box that triggers the jQuery code to open the dropdown list:
$('#ratingDropdownContainer').on('click', function() {
if ($('#dropdownListContainer').css('display') == 'none') {
$('#dropdownListContainer').show();
}
})
Initially, everything works perfectly fine. But the problem occurs when a user selects an option and the .hide() method fails to work. Despite trying various solutions such as ensuring proper document load by wrapping in $(document).ready(function(), verifying that JavaScript recognizes the display property correctly (confirmed with console.log("okokoko");), loading jQuery before JS file, attempting vanilla JS alternatives - none have successfully resolved the issue. It's perplexing why .show() works while .hide() fails. Any insights or assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
JS:
$('#ratingDropdownContainer').on('click', function() {
if ($('.dropdown-list-container').css('display') == 'none') {
$('.dropdown-list-container').show();
}
})
$('.avg-rating-select').on('click', function() {
var selectedRatingImg = $(this).find('img').prop('outerHTML');
var selectedRatingText = $(this).find('p').prop('outerHTML');
var newDiv = $("<div>" + selectedRatingImg + selectedRatingText + "</div>");
newDiv.addClass("rating-selected-container");
if ($('.rating-selected-container').length) {
$('.rating-selected-container').replaceWith(newDiv);
} else {
$('.rating-dropdown-inner-text p').replaceWith(newDiv);
}
if ($('.dropdown-list-container').css('display') === 'block') {
console.log("okokoko");
$('.dropdown-list-container').hide();
}
})
