How do you create a toggle button?

Question

I want to create a toggle button in html using css. I want it so that when you click on it , it stays pushed in and than when you click it on it again it pops out.

Answer 1

You can just use toggleClass() to track state. Then you check if button element has the class, like this:

$("button.toggler").click( function() {
    $me = $(this);
    $me.toggleClass('off');
    if($me.is(".off")){
        alert('hi');
    }else {
        alert('bye');
    }
});

And I use the button element for buttons for semantic reasons.
