Expected output: i want Read more & Read less click option be at the bottom with all content which include paragraph & list.. (Codepen shows Read more & Read less click option at the top) Here what i tried: HTML
<a href="#" class="show_hide" data-content="toggle-text">Read More</a>
<div class="content">Testing
<ul>
<li>first</li>
</ul>
</div>
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".content").hide();
$(".show_hide").on("click", function () {
var txt = $(".content").is(':visible') ? 'Read More' : 'Read Less';
$(".show_hide").text(txt);
$(this).next('.content').slideToggle(200);
});

Reset to default 2To move Read More link to the bottom and have it work use "prev" instead of "next" method.
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".content").hide();
$(".show_hide").on("click", function () {
var txt = $(".content").is(':visible') ? 'Read More' : 'Read Less';
$(".show_hide").text(txt);
$(this).prev('.content').slideToggle(200);
});
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare./ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="content">Testing
<ul>
<li>first</li>
</ul>
</div>
<a href="#" class="show_hide" data-content="toggle-text">Read More</a>
Try this :
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".show_hide").on("click", function () {
var txt = $(".content").hasClass('visible') ? 'Read More' : 'Read Less';
$(".show_hide").text(txt);
$(".content").toggleClass("visible");
});
});
.content {
height:90px;
overflow:hidden;
margin-bottom:10px;
}
.content.visible {
height:auto;
overflow:visible;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare./ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="content">Testing
<ul>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
<li>first</li>
</ul>
</div>
<a href="#" class="show_hide" data-content="toggle-text">Read More</a>
You can use css for this
.show_hide{
position:absolute;
top:100%;
}
Or just put it at the bottom of a container that is what people do
Your content
class (which gets shown and hidden) contains all of your visible content. You just need to include some content that does not have the content
class before your a
element, something like:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".content").hide();
$(".show_hide").on("click", function() {
var txt = $(".content").is(':visible') ? 'Read More' : 'Read Less';
$(".show_hide").text(txt);
$(this).next('.content').slideToggle(200);
});
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare./ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div>
<h3>Always shown</h3>
<p>Some text</p>
</div>
<a href="#" class="show_hide">Read More</a>
<div class="content">
<h3>Sometimes shown</h3>
<p>More text</p>
</div>
