Thankyou for your response, I'll try to clarify what I am trying to
do....I am trying to have the content of a div on a page appear or
disappear based on a click of a link. However I want to start the page
with none of the content in divs being shown, thus I hid the #content
div's in the css.
What is happening now is first time I click on "xx-button" it then fades
in the corresponding "#content div.xx" Then the next click of say
"x1-button" fades in #content div.x1" BUT it does not fade out the
previous "#content div.xx". Same thing happens for the third
"x2-button", the "#content div.x2" is faded in but "#content div.x1" and
"#content div.xx" are still visible which is not what I want.
What I tried to do in the script is test if ALL the divs in "#content
div" are hidden. if true then fade in the corresponding "#content
div.xx" to the clicked "xx-button". This is good and works for the first
condition of the page only. At the next click to "x1-button" the if
statement " appears to return true again. As it appears that
"#content > div" is for any div in #content being hidden versus ALL. So
I am looking to understand how to write the filter/test to check if ALL
the divs in #content being hidden
There may be simpler way to do this... this was the closest I came to
getting it almost where I wanted.
Thanks hope this clears it a bit & thanks in advance for the help.

this is confusing, all the #content div's are already hidden by css
( display:none) and you say it's already working . Not very clear what
you are trying to accomplish
$("#content div").hide(); // this will hide every div within #content
using part of your click function below a "filter" like you are asking
about could be
$("#content div:visible").hide();
is that all you are trying to do is hide them?

Hello I am posting for the first time.. and am resending my message
because it didn't appear to post to the group.
As mentioned below, just starting out with jquery/javascript and need
some help with the script below to have it start with none of the
#content div showing.
I expect this is pretty basic, so thanks in advance for any quick
help you can provide.
Thanks

Hello I am a beginner to jquery/javascript and I am trying to use a
script I saw online to replace the content of a div. However I would
like to have the script start with none of the target content showing.
So far it starts correctly however I am not sure how to test/filter
for ALL the divs in #content being hidden which would be the begging
state of the page.
Here is a link to what it is doing now.
http://noworriestech.com/jquery/indext2.html
Here is the code
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$("#home-button").css({
opacity: 0.3
});
$("#about-button").css({
opacity: 0.3
});
$("#contact-button").css({
opacity: 0.3
});
$("#page-wrap div.button").click(function(){
$clicked = $(this);
// if the button is not already "transformed" AND is
not animated
if ($clicked.css("opacity") != "1" && $clicked.is(":not
(animated)")) {
$clicked.animate({
opacity: 1,
borderWidth: 5
}, 600 );
// each button div MUST have a "xx-button" and
the target div
must have an id "xx"
var idToLoad = $clicked.attr("id").split('-');
if ($("#content > div").is(":hidden")) {
$("#content").find("#"+idToLoad[0]).fadeIn();
}
else {
//we search trough the content for the visible
div and we fade it
out
$("#content").find("div:visible").fadeOut("fast", function(){
//once the fade out is completed, we start
to fade in the right
div
$(this).parent().find("#"+idToLoad[0]).fadeIn();
})}
}
//we reset the other buttons to default style
$clicked.siblings(".button").animate({
opacity: 0.5,
borderWidth: 1
}, 600 );
});
});
</script>
Thank you for you assitance in advance.
