How can I show a hidden div when a select option is selected in JavaScript?


To show a hidden div when a select option is selected, you can set the value “style.display” to block.

Example

Following is the code −

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<style>
   #hideValuesOnSelect {
      display: none;
   }
</style>
<body>
<select onchange="displayDivDemo('hideValuesOnSelect', this)">
<option value="0">Java</option>
<option value="1">Javascript</option>
</select>
<div id="hideValuesOnSelect">This is the Javascript</div>
</body>
<script>
   function displayDivDemo(id, elementValue) {
      document.getElementById(id).style.display = elementValue.value == 1 ? 'block' : 'none';
   }
</script>
</html>

To run the above program, save the file name anyName.html(index.html) and right click on the file. Select the option “Open with live server” in VS Code editor.
