I have attempted to use is(':visible'), is(':hidden'), and css('display') but I am unable to retrieve the display status of an element after applying .slideToggle()
What could I be overlooking?
Here is the jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/djlerman/jbNg3/1/
and here is the code sample:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test Slide Toggle</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/themes/ui-lightness/jquery-ui.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
<style type="text/css">
.ui-icon {
float:left;
}
</style>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/ui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('span#expandList').click(function () {
if ($(this).attr('class') == "ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s") {
$(this).attr('class', "ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-e");
} else {
$(this).attr('class', "ui-icon ui-icon-triangle-1-s");
}
$(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).slideToggle();
$('#debug').html($(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).attr('id') + ' is(:visible): ' + $(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).is(':visible') + '<br />' +
$(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).attr('id') + ' is(:hidden): ' + $(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).is(':hidden') + '<br />' +
$(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).attr('id') + ' .css(display): ' + $(this.parentNode).nextAll('ul').eq(0).css('display') + '<br />'
);
})
});
</script>
