Angular.js How to change an elements css class on click and to remove all others

Question

i\'m trying to make my two elements toggle, so if one element is clicked it will remove all references of my-class and apply it to its self. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Create a scope property called selectedIndex, and an itemClicked function:

function MyController ($scope) {
  $scope.collection = ["Item 1", "Item 2"];

  $scope.selectedIndex = 0; // Whatever the default selected index is, use -1 for no selection

  $scope.itemClicked = function ($index) {
    $scope.selectedIndex = $index;
  };
}

Then my template would look something like this:

       {{ item }} 

Just for reference $index is a magic variable available within ng-repeat directives.

You can use this same sample within a directive and template as well.
