Hi,

There are 2 good ways to do it in JS

btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
  document.getElementById('#firstElementId').style.display = 'none';
  document.getElementById('#secElementId').style.display = 'none';
});

or

btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
  document.getElementById('#firstElementId').style.visibility = 'hidden';
  document.getElementById('#secElementId').style.visibility = 'hidden';
});

Here is explained difference between those two attempts.

For some of our components we've provided hide method, for example: myAlert.hide().

I m not sure how to connect this js code with specific botton (what js code I need to add to botton) so that two elements on id will close on one botton click?

I have here example:

onclick="HideDiv()"

function HideDiv() { document.getElementById('#firstElementId').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('#secElementId').style.display = 'none'; }

Will this work?

Thanks,

Damjan

You need to select button and add event listener to it.Here is complete example.

hi,

in HTML code you've created button and connected it with JS function fun(). When fun() is called, selected divs get CSS display property equal to none, which means they will not be visible, and they will not take any space in your document.

If your point was to make them disapear, it works perfectly fine.

Next time consider connecting buttons with functions in JS code by addEventListener to your button. This approach will work exactly the same, but it will help you to keep your code cleaner.
