$("ul#specialsNav li a").click( function(){
var whichID = $(this).attr("id").replace(/_a_/, "");
var newSpecial = "div." + whichID;
$(newSpecial).toggle();
});
i have tried putting...
$("newSpecial").toggle();
but nothing
Hi Josh,
Is it because you're using "div." instead of "div#"? You shouldn't
even need the "div" part at all. Try this instead:
var newSpecial = "#" + whichID;
Hope that helps.
