Javascript onclick needs to be clicked twice for function to run. I need it

  • 0

Javascript onclick needs to be clicked twice for function to run. I need it to run on the first click, That is my problem. I’ve googled and searched for 2 days now without finding a reply that worked or that I understood.

The code for the javascript can be found here: http://enji.se/windows8/js/script.js

And the site where I want it to work: http://enji.se/windows8/

It’s a Windows 8 looking website I’m trying to make. It will only display correctly on Google Chrome and on a resolution higher then 1265×820 and will be awesome on resolutions higher then 1590×920

Thank in advance / enji

    The problem is inside your click handler boxBegin – the click event is received and passed to your method correctly on the first click, but inside boxBegin you are switching behaviour on the value of box.style.display – in IE9 this is initially “”, which triggers your close code rather than the open code you want.

    Change boxBegin to:

    function boxBegin() {
        var box = document.getElementById('boxBegin');
        if (!box.style.display || box.style.display == "none") {
            box.style.display = "block";
        }
        else {
            box.style.display = "none";
        }
    }
