Javascript show element on click

rated 0 times [ 97] [ 5] / answers: 1 / hits: 50197 / 14 Years ago, sun, december 5, 2010, 12:00:00

I'm trying to do this without Jquery. I want to show a div when clicking a trigger. So far I have this to hide the element.

 document.getElementById('element').style.display = 'none';

HTML..

<div class=element>Ahem, boo!!</div>

<a href=# id=showDiv>Show</a>

How do I create a function to show the div when clicking the link? I would like to avoid using functions like onclick=showDiv() in the link itself.

document.getElementById('showDiv').onclick=function(){

  // Remove any element-specific value, falling back to stylesheets

  document.getElementById('element').style.display='';

};
