I was able to use an alert to show the id of what was clicked! But Im trying to show/hide elements based on what is clicked.
So for example, if you click link 1 (id="1") - all div's with id="1" will show, but div's with id="2" will be hidden. I can get everything to show, but not just id="1". Here is my code, what am I doing wrong? $(event.target.id)show(); $(event.target.id:not).hide(); Here is the full code: //grab values from attributes assigned in xsl var qtID = $(this).attr("id"); // make id to show comment (#23453-3djis-im37vk9-fkifhf7) var ccID = '#' + qtID; //show only comments of matching ccID that were clicked $("#item-comments-listing").show(); $(event.target.id)show(); $(event.target.id:not).hide(); Any ideas?
