[Solved] CSS – Text disappears when clicked, reappears when released

[onement]

Not sure how to word that really, but I have text that when clicked (not released), just if i click and hold the click down, while holding down on the mouse the text disappears. When releasing the click it reappears. It only lasts as long as the click in other words….maybe someone can lead me in the right direction to where to look….thanks.

Maybe javascript but if you want pure css im not shure. Ill work on the js now.

Is this a requirement or a problem…it’s not clear?

:active will do that for you if it’s a requirement.

Here you go (JS) CodePen Code

That works. Better than my method

Yes, the Codepen Code that benjamin posted is what it is doing and I do not want it. It is a problem.

This is a link to where i think the text is

I see the :active but I can’t just remove the “:active” can I, because doesn’t isn’t that a sort of rule for when the text IS active? Again, I’m new to this…Thanks.
