在选中至少三个输入复选框（每组六个中的一个）之前，如何隐藏按钮？

Question

I have three lists (HTML Fieldset elements) with six foods (HTML input elements - starting as unchecked) in each. I would like to keep a button element below these three lists hidden until at least one food from each of the three lists has been checked. When at least one food from each list has been checked I would like the button to unhide.

This will unhide the button when one of the inputs in the first fieldset is clicked... but I need to expand the functionality so that the button will only appear when at least one of each of the 3x fieldsets (protein, carbs, and fats) is selected.

 // Add variable for the DOM element button with id "generate-meals" let generateMealButton = document.getElementById("generate-meals"); generateMealButton.classList.add("hide"); // Add an eventlistener to generate meal button to listen for a "click" event and run the // function "runMealGenerator when the event occurs" generateMealButton.addEventListener("click", runMealGenerator); // find all input fields const proteinInputs = document.querySelectorAll("input[class='protein-input']"); console.log(proteinInputs[0].checked) const carbInputs = document.querySelectorAll("input[class='carb-input']"); console.log(carbInputs) const fatInputs = document.querySelectorAll("input[class='fat-input']"); console.log(fatInputs) // add click event-listener for all input buttons proteinInputs.forEach((input) => { input.addEventListener("click", checkProteinInput); }); // check if any input buttons are 'checked' function checkProteinInput() { // if the macroChoice button is 'not' hidden, then unhide it console.log(proteinInputs[0].checked) if (generateMealButton.classList.contains("hide")) { generateMealButton.classList.remove("hide"); } } function runMealGenerator() { console.log("Dummy Function Added") }

Answer 1

You will need to iterate over ALL checkboxes, whether at least one of each section is checked. And you will need to do this, also, when a checkbox is unchecked, because probably you want to hide the button again, when the condition is not met anymore ...

The straight forward approach would be the following

function checkInputs() {
  let p = false, f = false, c = false; //protein, carbon, fat
  for (let i = 0; i < proteinInputs.length; i++) {
    if (proteinInputs[i].checked) { p = true; break;} //we found at least one
  }
  for (let i = 0; i < fatInputs.length; i++) {
    if (fatInputs[i].checked) { f = true; break;} //we found at least one
  }
  for (let i = 0; i < carbonInputs.length; i++) {
    if (carbonInputs[i].checked) { c = true; break;} //we found at least one
  }

  if (p && f && c) {  //found at least one in each section
    //show the button
    generateMealButton.classList.remove("hide");
  } else {  //at least one is missing
    //hide the button
    generateMealButton.classList.add("hide");
  }
}

and add this checkInputs to all your checkboxes (ie not only for proteins, but also for fat and carbons)

Btw. You don't need to explicitly check with classList.contains if you are using classList.add or classList.remove . Those functions will take care of that. Ie, it won't add the same class twice if it's already contained, and there is no error if you try to remove a class, that isn't contained in the classList )

Of course you can optimize this code. For instance just evalute the checkbox that was just changed and keep a counter for each of the sections. And when all counters are > 0 unhide the button, and hide the button when one goes to zero ...

 let cb = document.querySelectorAll("input[type='checkbox']") for (let i = 0; i < cb.length; i++) cb[i].addEventListener("change", check); let c = 0, f= 0, p= 0 function check(event) { let addval = event.currentTarget.checked ? 1 : -1 switch(event.currentTarget.getAttribute("data-tag")) { case "f": f += addval; break; case "c": c += addval; break; case "p": p += addval; break; } console.log(f,c,p); if (f && c && p) document.getElementById("thebutton").classList.remove("hide") else document.getElementById("thebutton").classList.add("hide") }

 .hide { display: none; }

 <input type="checkbox" data-tag="f"/>fat <input type="checkbox" data-tag="c"/>carbon <input type="checkbox" data-tag="p"/>protein <input type="checkbox" data-tag="f"/>fat2 <input type="checkbox" data-tag="c"/>carbon2 <input type="checkbox" data-tag="p"/>protein2 <input id="thebutton" type="button" value="create meal" class="hide">
