The jQuery slide methods slides elements up and down.
jQuery Sliding Methods
With jQuery you can create a sliding effect on elements.
jQuery has the following slide methods:
- slideDown()
- slideUp()
- slideToggle()
jQuery slideDown() Method
The jQuery slideDown() method is used to slide down an element.
Syntax:
The optional speed parameter specifies the duration of the effect. It can take the following values: “slow”, “fast”, or milliseconds.
The optional callback parameter is a function to be executed after the sliding completes.
The following example demonstrates the slideDown() method:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src=”//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js”>
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“#flip”).click(function(){
$(“#panel”).slideDown(“slow”);
});
});
</script>
<style type=”text/css”>
#panel,#flip
{
padding:5px;
text-align:center;
background-color:#e5eecc;
border:solid 1px #c3c3c3;
}
#panel
{
padding:50px;
display:none;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id=”flip”>Click to slide down panel</div>
<div id=”panel”>Hello world!</div>
</body>
</html>
jQuery slideUp() Method
The jQuery slideUp() method is used to slide up an element.
Syntax:
The optional speed parameter specifies the duration of the effect. It can take the following values: “slow”, “fast”, or milliseconds.
The optional callback parameter is a function to be executed after the sliding completes.
The following example demonstrates the slideUp() method:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src=”//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js”>
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“#flip”).click(function(){
$(“#panel”).slideUp(“slow”);
});
});
</script>
<style type=”text/css”>
#panel,#flip
{
padding:5px;

<div id=”panel”>Hello world!</div>
</body>
</html>
jQuery slideToggle() Method
The jQuery slideToggle() method toggles between the slideDown() and slideUp() methods.
If the elements have been slid down, slideToggle() will slide them up.
If the elements have been slid up, slideToggle() will slide them down.
The optional speed parameter can take the following values: “slow”, “fast”, milliseconds.
The optional callback parameter is a function to be executed after the sliding completes.
The following example demonstrates the slideToggle() method:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src=”//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.1/jquery.min.js”>
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(“#flip”).click(function(){
$(“#panel”).slideToggle(“slow”);
});
});
</script>
<style type=”text/css”>
#panel,#flip
{
padding:5px;
text-align:center;
background-color:#e5eecc;
border:solid 1px #c3c3c3;
}
#panel
{
padding:50px;
display:none;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id=”flip”>Click to slide the panel down or up</div>
<div id=”panel”>Hello world!</div>
</body>
