Jquery onclick method is not working properly

I’m trying to make a search form. I want it to be like when I click in the search form opener button, the search form would show and its width would be 100%.

When I click it again the search form width would return to 0. The first one is working but when I click it back, the form is not set to width of 0.

app.js :

var header_right_search_btn =$("#header_right_search_btn");
var header_search_cont = $("#header_search_cont");
var search_box = $("#search_box");
header_right_search_btn.click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    if(header_search_cont.css("width","0")){
        header_search_cont.css("width","100%")
        search_box.focus();
        header_search_cont.css("opacity","1");
        header_search_cont.css("transition","all .2s ease-in-out");
    }else if(header_search_cont.css("width","100%")){
        header_search_cont.css("width","0")
        header_search_cont.css("opacity","0");
        header_search_cont.css("transition","all .2s");

    }
    console.log("hhihihihi");

})

var search_area_die = $("#search_area_die");
search_area_die.click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    header_search_cont.css("width","0")
    header_search_cont.css("opacity","0");
    header_search_cont.css("transition","all .2s");
})
//search ends

Answer

Simple way is to use addClass() and removeClass() functions instead of using .css Then for if statement you can use if($(selector).hasClass())

var header_right_search_btn =$("#header_right_search_btn");
var header_search_cont = $("#header_search_cont");
var search_box = $("#search_box");
header_right_search_btn.click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    if(!header_search_cont.hasClass('strech')){  //<< if not hasClass() strech
        search_box.focus();
        header_search_cont.addClass('strech');   // addClass()
    }else{
        header_search_cont.removeClass('strech'); // removeClass()
    }
    console.log("hhihihihi");

})

var search_area_die = $("#search_area_die");
search_area_die.click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    header_search_cont.removeClass('strech'); //<< removeClass()
})
//search ends
#header_search_cont{
  width : 0px;
  opacity : 0;
  transition : all .2s ease-in-out;
  overflow : hidden;
  background : red;
  padding : 10px;
  box-sizing : border-box;
}
#header_search_cont.strech{
  width : 100%;
  opacity : 1;
  transition : all .2s ease-in-out;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="header_right_search_btn">Open Search</div>
<div id="header_search_cont">
  <form>
    <input id="search_box" type="search" placeholder="search" />
    <input id="search_area_die" type="submit" value="search"/>
  </form>
</div>

Explanation:

  • Add/remove class strech to the element on click

  • Check for strech class by using .hasclass('strech')) . The ! mark means NOT so !$(selector).hasClass('strech') means if the element doesn’t have this class
