toggleclass - Easiest way to toggle 2 classes in jQuery

Question

If I have class .A and class .B and want to switch in between on button click, what's a nice solution for that in jQuery? I still don't understand how toggleClass() works.

Is there an inline solution to put it in onclick="" event?

Answer 1

If your element exposes class A from the start, you can write:

$(element).toggleClass("A B");

This will remove class A and add class B. If you do that again, it will remove class B and reinstate class A.

If you want to match the elements that expose either class, you can use a multiple class selector and write:

$(".A, .B").toggleClass("A B");
