Example: Showing and Hiding

Showing a Node

By default, Node instances are hidden using the CSS display property. Calling the show method displays the node.

Y.one('#demo').show();

Hiding a Node

The opposite of show, the hide method sets the node's CSS display property to none.

Y.one('#demo').hide();
