I've been having a problem for a while now and I can't seem to understand how to fix it and I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
What I have to do is when I click on a link on the website it needs to pop up a calculator and then when I click the off button on that calculator it should disappear again. What am I doing wrong!?!? (Note: calcButton is a link and buttonOff is a button)
function showCalc()
{
alert("button was clicked");
document.getElementById('calculator').style.visibility = "visible";
}
function hideCalc()
{
alert("off button was clicked");
document.getElementById('calculator').style.visibility = "hidden";
}
function main() {
//store top and left values of calculator
calculator.style.top = getStyle(calculator, "top");
calculator.style.left = getStyle(calculator, "left");
document.getElementById('calcButton').onclick = showCalc;
document.getElementById('buttonOff').onclick = hideCalc;
}
window.onload = main;
EDIT:
Here's the get style method:
function getStyle(object,styleName)
{
if (window.getComputedStyle)
{
return document.defaultView.getComputedStyle(object, null).getPropertyValue(styleName);
}
else if (object.currentStyle)
{
return object.currentStyle[styleName];
}
}
EDIT2:
Calc button (which is an href)
<a href="" id= "calcButton">Calculator</a>
Also I don't think some people understand what the problem is. The problem is when I click it the calculator turns visible and then back hidden almost instantaneously
