How to Show and Hide div elements using radio buttons?

In order to display data/content of a specific element by selecting the particular radio button in jQuery we can use the following two methods:

  1. hide() methods: This method is used to hiding the syntax or the element of html that you want to hide.
    Syntax:

    $(selector).hide(speed, callback);
  2. show() methods: This method is used to show the syntax or the element of html that you want the user to see.
    Syntax:

    $(selector).show(speed, callback);

Approach:

  • Selector name for radio button is same as the element which is used to display the
    content.
  • CSS display property of each element is set to none using display: none;
  • Use show() method for displaying the element, otherwise use hide() method for hiding.

Example 1:



filter_none
