How can I have text fade in on each click and not just the first time using css transition and JavaScript?
Here is what I have so far
<style>
#data {
transition: .7s;
}
</style>
<h1 id="data"></h1>
<a href="#" id="clicker">click 1</a>
document.getElementById('data').style.opacity = 0;
function go(event){
event.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('data').style.opacity = 1;
document.getElementById('data').innerHTML = 'test';
}
document.getElementById('clicker').addEventListener('click', go);
It can also be done using Element.animate():
const dataElement = document.getElementById('data')
dataElement.style.opacity = 0
function go(event) {
event.preventDefault()
dataElement.animate({
opacity: [0, 1]
}, 700).onfinish = () => dataElement.style.opacity = 1
}
document.getElementById('clicker').addEventListener('click', go)
<h1 class="fade-in" id="data">test</h1>
<a href="#" id="clicker">click 1</a>
EDIT:
In the above snippet onfinish event handler was used to maintain the final opacity value since it was being set back to 0 after the animation ends. But I found that this can also be achieved by setting fill: 'forwards' in the keyframe options:
const dataElement = document.getElementById('data')
dataElement.style.opacity = 0
function go(event) {
event.preventDefault()
dataElement.animate({
opacity: [0, 1]
}, {
duration: 700,
fill: 'forwards'
})
}
document.getElementById('clicker').addEventListener('click', go)
<h1 class="fade-in" id="data">test</h1>
<a href="#" id="clicker">click 1</a>
Also you might want to check browser compatibility before implementing those approaches
And if you want a safer approach you may use css animations:
const data = document.getElementById('data')
data.style.opacity = 0
const clicker = document.getElementById('clicker')
clicker.addEventListener('click', () => {
data.classList.remove('fade-in')
data.offsetWidth // required to trigger a reflow and restart the animation
data.classList.add('fade-in')
})
.fade-in {
animation-name: fadein-animation;
animation-duration: 700ms;
animation-fill-mode: forwards;
}
@keyframes fadein-animation {
0% {
opacity: 0;
}
100% {
opacity: 1;
}
}
<h1 id="data">test</h1>
<a href="#" id="clicker">click 1</a>
setTimeout might work for you. On click set it invisible immediately and use setTimeout to have a delay then show it again.
document.getElementById('data').style.opacity = 0;
document.getElementById('data').innerHTML = 'test';
function go(event){
event.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('data').style.opacity = 0;
setTimeout(() => {
document.getElementById('data').style.opacity = 1;
}, 1000);
}
document.getElementById('clicker').addEventListener('click', go);
#data {
transition: .7s;
}
<h1 id="data"></h1>
<a href="#" id="clicker">click 1</a>
<h1 id="data" style="opacity:0"> </h1>
<button type="button" id="clicker">Fade In</button>
<script>
var data = document.getElementById('data');
function fadeIn(){
data.innerHTML = 'Data entered successfully.';
data.animate({opacity:[0,1]},{duration:400,fill:'forwards'});
}
document.getElementById('clicker').addEventListener('click',fadeIn);
</script>
