Question

I need to create a drop down list that contain multiple checkboxes as well as multiple levels. The user should be able to select an option and/or dig deeper to select sub categorical. See the example from the code below.

So far, I was able to create the drop down list and the check boxes. I am having problems getting the id of the button selected and opening the corresponding div

How can I get the button working?

edit: I will explain my approach to make the code easier to read.
I am trying to create multiple with each of them containing a list of check boxes. Whenever a button is clicked, all the s should .hide() and only the requested would .show(). I am not worried about how the main would be reached again, but all the should reset once the drop down list is collapsed. Hope that helps.

Answer 1

I have given the corresponding id of the buttons to the Div’s that have to be manipulated.. Then finding the button that was clicked and constructing the div that has to be opened..
Check this FIDDLE and let me know if this is what you were looking for ..
Or is it a different requirement..

$("button").click(function() {
    $("p").toggle();
     var btnID = $(this).attr('id');

    var coresDiv = $('div#' + btnID);

    coresDiv.toggle();
});
