jQuery hide() Method

The jQuery hide() method is used to hide selected HTML elements with a smooth animation effect. It reduces the element’s height to zero, effectively making it invisible. The method can also take a duration parameter to control the speed of the hiding animation.

Syntax:

$(element_selector).hide(duration, easing, call_function);

Parameter: It accepts three parameters which are specified below-

  • duration: It specifies the speed of the hide effect.
  • easing: It specifies the speed of the element at different points of animation.
  • call_function: This is the call-back function to be executed after the hide operation.

Return Value: It does not return any value.

Example 1: In the we use jQuery to hide a paragraph when a button is clicked. It also styles a div with a green border, padding, and adjusts the button’s margin for spacing.

HTML 
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>  <head>     <script src= "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js">     </script>     <!-- jQuery code to show the working of this method -->     <script>         $(document).ready(function () {             $(".b1").click(function () {                 $("p").hide();             });         });     </script>     <style>         div {             width: 50%;             height: 80px;             padding: 20px;             margin: 10px;             border: 2px solid green;             font-size: 30px;         }          .b1 {             margin: 10px;         }     </style> </head>  <body>     <div>         <p>GeeksforGeeks !.</p>     </div>     <!-- click on this button and          above paragraph will disappear -->     <button class="b1">Click me !</button>  </body>  </html>

Output: 

Example 2: In the below example, we use jQuery to hide a paragraph when a button is clicked. The paragraph hides over 1000 milliseconds, and an alert message appears once the hide animation is complete.

HTML 
<!DOCTYPE html> <html>  <head>     <script src= "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js">     </script>     <!--jQuery code to show the working of this method-->     <script>             $(document).ready(function () {                 $(".btn1").click(function () {                     $("p").hide(1000, function () {                         alert("Hide() method has finished its working!");                     });                 });             });     </script>     <style>         p {             width: 40%;             padding: 20px;             height: 50px;             border: 2px solid green;         }     </style> </head>  <body>     <p>GeeksforGeeks.!</p>     <!-- click on this button and          above paragraph will hide -->     <button class="btn1">Click to Hide</button> </body>  </html>
