I keep this in my toolbox:
// Toggle text within an element using regular expressions.
// Useful for changing "show" to "hide" and back when toggling element
displays, for example
jQuery.fn.toggleText = function(a,b) {
return this.html(this.html().replace(new RegExp("("+a+"|"+b
+")"),function(x){return(x==a)?b:a;}));
}
Example:
$('#mydiv').toggleText('show','hide');
You can pass in regex text, and it can toggle text within a string
like:
"Click here to show all items"
and it will just toggle the word "show" to "hide".
Hope it's useful.
