Hi Everyone,
Let’s say I already have content in a div. When I use JQuery to add other content to that div, does it automatically remove the existing content? If not, what is the best way to modify the code so I don’t have content loaded on top of preexisting content? And one way or the other, does it matter whether or not that content was put there by JQuery (for example, default content that was already there when page loads)? Last, for more efficient code, I want to use a switch-case to listen for which link was clicked so the appropriate content will be loaded; where would be best to put the switch-case?
JQuery code…
$(document).ready(function (){
[B]/*SWITCH CASE HERE??? */[/B]
$('#addcontent a').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$('#inserthere').load(e.target.href + ' #thumbnails').hide().delay(100).fadeIn(500);
});
});
Loader…
