href opens a div on screen

[Hatul]

Hi guys,

I have a page with a link, that I want that everytime a user clicks on it – it opens a div with content on it.
How do I do this using CSS ?
Is it more recommended to do this using JS?

Thanks.

Javascript would the the optimal solution and it’s a very simple thing to do.

One thing though, unless you need an actual link to the div, you shouldn’t use an href…

If all the thing does is open a div on the same page, use a button styled how you like.

you are right about the href thing.
That’s why I used: “preventDefault”
using jQuery.

Here is a JSfiddle with a code I made as an example.
Maybe my post will help somebody else :)

I think what Paulie is suggesting is to not use an anchor at all. You can attach a click event to any element. In your case I’d probably use a <span>.
