Step By Step Guide On JavaScript Hide Element By Class :-
Here we defined h1 tag for display heading, div element with some codes of styles and two buttons defined ‘None, Hide’ with id’s ‘dis_n,vis_h’ for trigger click event.
In script when user clicks on ‘None, Hide’ any buttons which triggers click event by ‘addEventListener’ then it loads function.
There we collecting div element class ‘b’ by getElementsByClassName() method then we sets style properties of display or visibility with respective values ‘None, Hidden’ and it will hides element.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>HIDE BY CLASS</title>
</head>
<body>
<style>

<h1>Hide Elements By Class Name</h1>
<div id="b" class="b">You can hide/show this box using javascript</div>
<br>
<button id="dis_n">None</button>
<button id="vis_h">Hide</button>
<script>
document.getElementById("dis_n").addEventListener("click",function(){
document.getElementsByClassName("b")[0].style.display="none";
});
document.getElementById("vis_h").addEventListener("click",function(){
document.getElementsByClassName("b")[0].style.visibility="hidden";
});

- Here we defined h1 tag with ‘Hide Elements By Class Name’ heading, div element with some lines of style by using class name ‘b’ then we defined ‘None, Hide’ buttons with separate id’s ‘dis_n,vis_h’ for access those elements.
- In script we referred each buttons by specifing their id’s in getElementById() method then which is appends with ‘addEventListener()’ for listen when click event occur.
- Within that we collecting div element by class name ‘b’ then we sets display property to ‘none’ for hide state and likewise we sets ‘b’ visibility property to ‘hidden’ for hide state.
- Here must we need to do another thing is nearby getElementsByClassName() method we have specify [0] for work this concept correctly otherwise we can’t get the result because it is defined for handle array.
- If you handle this as like getElementById() method which can’t returns anything because getElementById() method defined with other behavior so we can easily access it.
- Both </body>,</html> tags closed respectively. </body> tag indicates the end of body, Then </html> tag indicates the end of HTML document.
