I read, with great interest, about using a button to show and hide text here. However, I have several blocks of text for which I would like a button to toggle show/hide but would prefer not to duplicate the same function several times. I would like to pass the div ID as a parameter so that multiple buttons may use the same function to show/hide the text associated with each button. I tried the following code but it does not work. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <style> #myDIV { width: 100%; padding: 50px 0; text-align: center; background-color: lightblue; margin-top: 20px; } </style> </head> <body> <p>Click the "Try it" button to toggle between hiding and showing the DIV element:</p> <button onclick="myFunction('myDIV')">Try it</button> <div id="myDIV"> This is my DIV element. </div> <p><b>Note:</b> The element will not take up any space when the display property set to "none".</p> <script> function myFunction(myDiv) { var x = document.getElementById(myDIV); if (x.style.display === "none") { x.style.display = "block"; } else { x.style.display = "none"; } } </script> </body> </html>
