I want to hide divs on button click and show them on a different button click. Sadly there is always a postback on the image button click. What is causing this problem?
Here is my backend code
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i++)
{
HtmlGenericControl divTest = new HtmlGenericControl("div");
divTest.Attributes.Add("class", "divClass");
divTest.Attributes.Add("ID", "myDIV");
divTest.InnerText = "Div" + i;
form1.Controls.Add(divTest);
ImageButton collapseButton = new ImageButton();
collapseButton.ImageUrl = "~/images/minus.png";
collapseButton.Attributes.Add("OnClientClick", "myHideFunction(); return false;");
collapseButton.Height = 20;
collapseButton.Width = 20;
divTest.Controls.Add(collapseButton);
ImageButton expandButton = new ImageButton();
expandButton.ImageUrl = "~/images/plus.png";
collapseButton.Attributes.Add("OnClientClick", "myShowFunction(); return false;");
expandButton.Height = 20;
expandButton.Width = 20;
form1.Controls.Add(expandButton);
}
}
And here is my front end code
CSS
<style>
#myDIV {
width: 100%;
padding: 50px 0;
text-align: center;
background-color: lightblue;
margin-top: 20px;
}
</style>
Javascript
<script>
function myShowFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myDIV");
x.style.display = "block";
}
function myHideFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myDIV");
x.style.display = "none";
}
</script>
Add onclientclick on button:
collapseButton.OnClientClick = "return myHideFunction();");
You need to return false from your methods like this:
<script>
function myShowFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myDIV");
x.style.display = "block";
return false;
}
function myHideFunction() {
var x = document.getElementById("myDIV");
x.style.display = "none";
return false;
}
</script>
