How to toggle (hide / show) sidebar div using jQuery

See this fiddle for a preview and check the documentation for jquerys toggle and animate methods.

$('#toggle').toggle(function(){
    $('#A').animate({width:0});
    $('#B').animate({left:0});
},function(){
    $('#A').animate({width:200});
    $('#B').animate({left:200});
});

Basically you animate on the properties that sets the layout.

A more advanced version:

$('#toggle').toggle(function(){
    $('#A').stop(true).animate({width:0});
    $('#B').stop(true).animate({left:0});
},function(){
    $('#A').stop(true).animate({width:200});
    $('#B').stop(true).animate({left:200});
})

This stops the previous animation, clears animation queue and begins the new animation.

The following will work with new versions of jQuery.

$(window).on('load', function(){

    var toggle = false;

    $('button').click(function() {
        toggle = !toggle;

        if(toggle){
            $('#B').animate({left: 0});
        }
        else{
            $('#B').animate({left: 200});
        }

    });
});

Using Javascript

var side = document.querySelector("#side");
var main = document.querySelector("#main");
var togg = document.querySelector("#toogle");
var width = window.innerWidth;

window.document.addEventListener("click", function() {

  if (side.clientWidth == 0) {
//    alert(side.clientWidth);
    side.style.width      = "200px";
    main.style.marginLeft = "200px";
    main.style.width      = (width - 200) + "px";
    togg.innerHTML        = "Min";
  } else {
//    alert(side.clientWidth);
    side.style.width      = "0";
    main.style.marginLeft = "0";
    main.style.width      = width + "px";    
    togg.innerHTML        = "Max";
  }

}, false);

button {
  width: 100px;
  position: relative; 
  display: block; 
}

div {
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  border: 3px solid #73AD21;
  display: inline-block;
  transition: 0.5s; 
}

#side {
  left: 0;
  width: 0px;
  background-color: red;
}
 
#main {
  width: 100%;
  background-color: white;    
}

<button id="toogle">Max</button>
<div id="side">Sidebar</div>
<div id="main">Main</div>

$('#toggle').click(function() {
  $('#B').toggleClass('extended-panel');
  $('#A').toggle(/** specify a time here for an animation */);
});

and in the CSS:

.extended-panel {
  left: 0px !important;
}

$(document).ready(function () {
    $(".trigger").click(function () {
        $("#sidebar").toggle("fast");
        $("#sidebar").toggleClass("active");
        return false;
    });
});


<div>
    <a class="trigger" href="#">
        <img id="icon-menu" alt='menu' height='50' src="Images/Push Pin.png" width='50' />
    </a>
</div>
<div id="sidebar">
</div>

Instead #sidebar give the id of ur div.

This help to hide and show the sidebar, and the content take place of the empty space left by the sidebar.

<div id="A">Sidebar</div>
<div id="B"><button>toggle</button>
Content here: Bla, bla, bla
</div>


//Toggle Hide/Show sidebar slowy
  $(document).ready(function(){
      $('#B').click(function(e) {
          e.preventDefault();
          $('#A').toggle('slow');
          $('#B').toggleClass('extended-panel'); 
      });
  }); 


html, body {
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    border: 0;
}
#A, #B {
    position: absolute;
}
#A {
    top: 0px;
    width: 200px;
    bottom: 0px;
    background:orange;
}
#B {
    top: 0px;
    left: 200px;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0px;
    background:green;
}

/* makes the content take place of the SIDEBAR 
   which is empty when is hided */
.extended-panel {
  left: 0px !important;
}
