Joomla 2.5隐藏div

Question

I'm trying to hide a div in my template if the URL that is opened is't the base URL or the home page. Now when a user opens a link a div should be invisible. Can I detect and do this in Joomla 2.5 with php and how can I do this?

Answer 1

Try this by using javascript:

if(window.location.href.indexOf("base url")>0){
    $('something').show();
}
else{
        $('something').hide();
}

Answer 2

Try the below.

if(JRequest::getVar('view') == "frontpage" && JRequest::getVar('option') == 'com_content) {
    //You are viewing the homepage!
}

Note: This will not break even if you have a component installed called frontpage

An alternative

$app = JFactory::getApplication();
$menu = $app->getMenu();
if ($menu->getActive() == $menu->getDefault()) {
    echo 'This is the front page';
}
