VistasHow to make the event listener only add CSS element on one item at a time (vanilla JavaScript)
^I would like to be able for the style to be enabled for only one at a time.
^I'm able to do this, which I don't want the user to be able to do.
So it's weirdly hard framing a question for what is possibly an easy solution. I basically have a list of build versions where I want the user to select one. When one of the versions are selected, it adds a border to the item to display that its clicked. However, with my code right now the user is able to select all 3 items and enable their CSS elements. I would like for the user to be able to only "activate" one item from the list.
HTML and CSS:
<ul class="listContents">
<li><p><a href="#" class="links">Stable</a></p></li>
<li><p><a href="#" class="links">Preview</a></p></li>
<li><p><a href="#" class="links">LTS</a></p></li>
</ul>
<style>
.colorText {
background-color: #58a7ed;
color: white;
}
</style>
and the JS stuff:
const btn = document.querySelectorAll('.links');
for (let i = 0; i < btn.length; i++ ) {
btn[i].addEventListener("click", function() {
btn[i].classList.add('colorText')
})
}
I really hope I made myself clear, I feel like I'm failing my English trying to word this right lol.

You can also use a forEach loop, accessing the clicked link using event.target
const btns = document.querySelectorAll('.links');
btns.forEach(btn => {
btn.addEventListener('click', e => {
// remove any existing active links
btns.forEach(b => b.classList.remove('colorText'));
// activate the clicked link
e.target.classList.add('colorText');
})
});.colorText {
background-color: #58a7ed;
color: white;
}<ul class="listContents">
<li>
<p><a href="#" class="links">Stable</a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="#" class="links">Preview</a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="#" class="links">LTS</a></p>
</li>
</ul>0
Just before you add the colorText class to the desired item, we can remove colorText from ALL of them, ensuring that only 1 at a time gets the class.
// the rest is the same...
btn[i].addEventListener("click", function() {
// remove it from all:
btn.forEach(function(item) {
item.classList.remove('colorText');
});
// add it back to the desired one
btn[i].classList.add('colorText')
})

you can also use simple for of
const btn = document.querySelectorAll(".links");
for (let bt of btn) {
bt.addEventListener("click", (e) => {
btn.forEach((b) => b.classList.remove("colorText"));
e.target.classList.add("colorText");
});
}
