copied!<p>Good Day!</p> <p>I'd like to ask something . Is there such a way that could shorten these lines of mine in jquery? I mean specially in the if-else part. Thank you!</p> <hr> <pre><code>$("#banner a").bind("click",function(event){//2 event.preventDefault(); target = $(this).attr("href"); if(target=="#home"){ $("#prevID").attr("class",""); $("#nextID").attr("class","next"); $("#nextID").attr("href","#home"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#home"); }else if(target=="#newsletter"){ $("#prevID").attr("class","prev"); $("#nextID").attr("href","#newsletter"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#newsletter"); }else if(target=="#directions"){ $("#prevID").attr("class","prev"); $("#nextID").attr("href","#directions"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#directions"); }else if(target=="#contact"){ $("#prevID").attr("class","prev"); $("#nextID").attr("class",""); $("#nextID").attr("href","#contact"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#contact"); }else{} $("html, body").stop().animate({ scrollLeft: $(target).offset().left, scrollTop: $(target).offset().top }, 1200); });//closing 2 $(".next").bind("click",function(event){//3 event.preventDefault(); target = $(this).attr("href"); if(target=='#home'){ a='#newsletter'; $(".next").attr("href","#newsletter"); $("#prevID").attr("class","prev"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#newsletter"); }else if(target=='#newsletter'){ a='#directions'; $(".next").attr("href","#directions"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#directions"); }else if(target=='#directions'){ a='#contact'; $(".next").attr("href","#contact"); $("#prevID").attr("href","#contact"); $(".next").attr("class",""); }else{} $("html, body").stop().animate({ scrollLeft: $(a).offset().left, scrollTop: $(a).offset().top }, 1200); // $(".next").attr("href","#"); });//closing 3 $("#prevID").bind("click",function(event){//3 event.preventDefault(); target = $(this).attr("href"); if(target=='#newsletter'){ a='#home'; $("#prevID").attr("href","#home"); $(".next").attr("href","#home"); $("#prevID").attr("class",""); }else if(target=='#directions'){ a='#newsletter'; $("#prevID").attr("href","#newsletter"); $(".next").attr("href","#newsletter"); }else if(target=='#contact'){ a='#directions'; $("#prevID").attr("href","#directions"); $("#nextID").attr("class","next"); $("#nextID").attr("href","#directions"); }else{} $("html, body").stop().animate({ scrollLeft: $(a).offset().left, scrollTop: $(a).offset().top }, 1200); // $(".next").attr("href","#"); });//closing 3 }); </code></pre> <hr> <p>It looks kinda hustle to look at. Also, Im still learnng jquery so my apologies for the unconventional syntaxes. :)</p>
