  • 0

Is there a way in jQuery where I can hide an element, but not change the DOM when it’s hidden? I’m hiding a certain element but when it’s hidden, the elements below it move up. I don’t want that to happen. I want the space to stay the same, but the element to be shown/hidden at will.

Can I do this?

    Instead of hide(), use:

    css('visibility','hidden')
    

    hide() sets the display style to none, which completely removes the element from the document flow and causes it to not take up space.

    visibility:hidden keeps the space as it is.
