need help in finishing javascript program

[henkt]

hi

I am a total nitwit in javascript programming
Nevertheless with 'copy and paste' and by using common sense javascript became a valuable part of my html websites

I wrote a testprogram to prevent scrolling without clicking (problem for webstats). Pages are presented 1 by 1 by unhiding a div block
see: http://paradigm-shift-21st-century.nl/test1.html

So far I managed, but the remaining problem is that you need to unselect every page before selecting a next one.

Has anyone a solution where selecting automatically means unslecting/unhidin the former page

Thanks a lot in advance

Please with example, because my javascript knowledge is very little

first of all, try to fix the CSS and HTML and then understand what did you mean with this line:

var link = document.getElementById("linkId1");

Hello Padonak

I'm sorry but your reaction wasn't really helpful

I don't worry about 'correct' css, but my html i always check. Because that's what searchengines do too.
No errors

And the program works, though not satisfactorily. The result is not what I looked for.

You might explain what you mean with your remark

And the linkid is superfluous. I already noticed

    function divToHide(divToHideOrShow) {
        var div = document.getElementById(divToHideOrShow);
        if (divToHide.lst&&divToHide.lst!=div){
         divToHide.lst.style.display = "none";
        }
        if (div.style.display == "block")
       {
            div.style.display = "none";
        }
        else
       {
            div.style.display = "block";
        }
      divToHide.lst=div;
    }

Hi Vic

It works

I have to study to grasp why, but GREAT!

Thanks a lot

1. here is your page markup validation result - 9 Errors, 2 warning(s)

2. if you don't worry about 'correct' css, be prepared to get many troubles with Javascript. just for your info, the CSS validator says that your stylesheet has at least 7 errors.

Hi Padonak

Keep focusing on the essence.

I use html validator and saw 2 errors but not essential ones, caused by a forgotten <div> command. Nothing to worry about, as you surely noticed
