Given an HTML document and the task is to blink the certain text of an element using jQuery. There are few techniques to solve this problem which are discussed below:
Approach 1:
- Select a particular element from the document.
- Toggle its visibility property from hidden to visible and vice-versa after a particular period of time.
Example 1: This example implements the above approach.
<!DOCTYPE HTML> < html > < head > < title > How to make a blinking text using jQuery ? </ title > < script src = </ script > </ head > < body align = "center" > < h1 style = "color:green;" > GeeksForGeeks </ h1 > < p id = "GFG_UP" style = "font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold;" > </ p > < button onclick = "GFG_Fun()" > click here </ button > < p id = "GFG_DOWN" style = "font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color:green;" > </ p > < script > var el_up = document.getElementById('GFG_UP'); var el_down = document.getElementById('GFG_DOWN'); el_up.innerHTML = "Click on the button to start " + "the text blinking."; el_down.innerHTML = "Binking Text"; function GFG_Fun() { $('#GFG_DOWN').each(function() { var elem = $(this); setInterval(function() { if (elem.css('visibility') == 'hidden') { elem.css('visibility', 'visible'); } else { elem.css('visibility', 'hidden'); } }, 100); }); } </ script > </ body > </ html > |
Output:
