In this post, we will learn How can I check if an element is hidden in jQuery?

The :hidden selector and the.is() function in jQuery can be used to determine whether an element is hidden. Here are two methods that you can use:

Method 1: Using the :hidden selector

if ($('#myElement').is(':hidden')) {
  console.log('Element is hidden.');
} else {
  console.log('Element is visible.');
}

In the example above, #myElement is the selector for the element you want to check. The .is(':hidden') method returns true if the selected element is hidden, and false otherwise.

Method 2: Using the .is() method

if ($('#myElement').is(function () {
  return $(this).css('display') === 'none';
})) {
  console.log('Element is hidden.');
} else {
  console.log('Element is visible.');
}

In this example, #myElement is the selector for the element you want to check. The .is(function() { ... }) method allows you to provide a function that returns true if the selected element is hidden, and false otherwise. The function checks the display CSS property of the element and compares it to 'none'.

Happy Coding! ❤️
