Question

Here is the code I have: http://jsfiddle.net/Draven/rEPXM/23/

I’d like to know how I can hide that Add submit button until I click the + image to add input boxes to the form.

I don’t want to add the submit button next to the input box because I want to be able to add multiple input boxes and submit them all when I click Add.

HTML

<div id="left">      
  <div class="box">
    <div class="boxtitle"><span class="boxtitleleftgap">&nbsp;</span><span class="boxtitlebulk"><span class="boxtitletext">Folders</span><div style="float: right; margin-top: 4px;"><a href="#" onclick="javascript: AddFolder();"><div class="addplus">&nbsp;</div></a></div></span></div>
      <div class="boxcontent">
        <form method="post" id="folderform" action="page.php?action=list-volunteer-apps" name="folderform">
          <a class="even" href="page.php?action=list-volunteer-apps&folder=2">Folder 2 <span class="text">(1)</span></a><a class="even" href="page.php?action=list-volunteer-apps&folder=1">Folder 1 <span class="text">(0)</span></a>
          <div id="foldercontainer"><input type="submit" value="Add"></div>
        </form>
      </div>
  </div>
</div>

jQuery

function AddFolder() {
    $('#foldercontainer').append('<input name="folder[]" type="text" size="20" />');
}​

Answer 1

Just give the button an ID, and make it start hidden

<input type="submit" id="addButton" value="Add" style="display: none;">

Then use the show() jQuery method:

$("#addButton").show();
