I am using bootstrap with btn-group. There is the html:
<div class="btn-group btn-group-sm" role="group">
<div type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-1">Button 1</div>
<div type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-2 active">Button 2</div>
</div>
Button 2 it already active.
Currently I'm doing this to remove the active class from one and add it to another.
$('.btn-2').removeClass('active');
$('.btn-1').addClass('active');
Is this the cleanest way to do this or is there a better way so it can just toggle this active class between the two buttons?
Use:
$('.btn-group').on('click', '.btn', function() {
$(this).addClass('active').siblings().removeClass('active');
});
I think the code is fairly self-explanatory? It simply removes any existing "active" classes from the siblings of the button you clicked, and adds that class to the clicked button.
Here's a working snippet:
$('.btn-group').on('click', '.btn', function() {
$(this).addClass('active').siblings().removeClass('active');

</div>
