Question

I’m trying to close one div when clicking on another div . Currently, it opens multiple divs at one time.

JQUERY:

$(document).ready(function() {

    $(".dropdown dt a").click(function() {
        var dropID = $(this).closest("dl").attr("id");
        $("#"+dropID+" dd ul").slideToggle(200);
        return false; 
    });

    $(".dropdown dd ul li a").click(function() {
        var dropID = $(this).closest("dl").attr("id");
        var text = $(this).html();
        var selVal = $(this).find(".dropdown_value").html();
        $("#"+dropID+" dt a").html(text);
        $("#"+dropID+" dd ul").hide();
        return false; 
    });

    $("dl[class!=dropdown]").click(function() {
        $(".dropdown dd ul").hide();
        return false; 
    });


    $("id!=quotetoolContainer").click(function() {
        $(".dropdown dd ul").hide();
        return false; 
    }); 

    $('body').click(function() {
        $(".dropdown dd ul").hide();
        return false; 
    }); 

    $('.productSelection').children().hover(function() {
        $(this).siblings().stop().fadeTo(200,0.5);
    }, function() {
        $(this).siblings().stop().fadeTo(200,1);
    });

});

Answer 1

Found my solution!

$(".dropdown dt a").click(function() {
  var dropID = $(this).closest("dl").attr("id");

  if ($("#"+dropID+" dd ul.opened").length) { 
    $('ul.opened').slideToggle(200).removeClass('opened');
  } else {
    $('ul.opened').slideToggle(200).removeClass('opened');
    $("#"+dropID+" dd ul").slideToggle(200).addClass('opened');
  }
  return false;     
});
