Try utilizing css :focus pseudo class , background-color
button {
background-color:yellow;
}
button:focus {
background-color:orange;
}<div class="H1toH5">
<button class="seatButton">H1</button>
<button class="seatButton">H2</button>
<button class="seatButton">H3</button>
<button class="seatButton">H4</button>
<button class="seatButton">H5</button>
</div>no just the one that is clicked, but i want to be able to click on many buttons not just one
var elems = document.getElementsByClassName("seatButton");
for (var i = 0; i < elems.length; i++) {
elems[i].onclick = function() {
var color = window.getComputedStyle(this, null)
.getPropertyValue("background-color");
this.style.backgroundColor = color === "rgb(255, 255, 0)"
? "rgb(255, 165, 0)" : "rgb(255, 255, 0)";
};
};button {
background-color:yellow;
}<div class="H1toH5">
<button class="seatButton">H1</button>
<button class="seatButton">H2</button>
<button class="seatButton">H3</button>
<button class="seatButton">H4</button>
<button class="seatButton">H5</button>
</div>
click on any single button changes all button elements background color ?You can do this with css a ::before pseudo element and the html checkbox input tag
input.toggle-btn {
visibility: hidden;
}
input.toggle-btn::before {
content: attr(value);
display: inline-block;
padding: 5px;
background: #fff;
font-size: 14pt;
color: #aaa;
border-radius: 5px;
border: 1px solid #aaa;
visibility: visible;
}
input.toggle-btn:checked::before {
background: rgb(50,150,250);
color: #eee;
border-color: #eee;
}<input class="toggle-btn" type="checkbox" value="Hello">This code will toggle a specific class when you click on it. If you click on the button again it will then return to it's original state.
$('.seatButton').click(function () {
$(this).toggleClass('activeClass');
});
Or just use the CSS Pseudo selected as people have specified above. There are many ways to achieve what you want!
No. You need to add/remove a class with javascript. To make @tpie feel better about himself, here is the code for that. Using jQuery:
$('.seatButton').on('click', function(){
$(this).toggleClass('is-active');
});
