I want to toggle two radio buttons and select fields based on which radio button is selected. I have the jQuery working, but want to know if there is a way to make it more efficient. Seems like quite a few lines for the simple goal I am trying to achieve. Here are the requirements:
when the page loads, #aircraftType should be checked and #aircraftModelSelect should be grayed out (right now, the "checked" is being ignored by Firefox).
If the user clicks either #aircraftType or #aircraftModel, the opposite select
field should become disabled (if #aircraftModel is checked, #aircraftTypeSelect should be disabled, and vise versa). Any help on optimizing this code is appreciated.
Code is up on jsfiddle too: http://jsfiddle.net/JuRKn/
$("#aircraftType").attr("checked");
$("#aircraftModel").removeAttr("checked");
$("#aircraftModelSelect").attr("disabled","disabled").addClass("disabled");
$("#aircraftType").click(function(){
$("#aircraftModelSelect").attr("disabled","disabled").addClass("disabled");
$("#aircraftTypeSelect").removeAttr("disabled").removeClass("disabled");
});
$("#aircraftModel").click(function(){
$("#aircraftTypeSelect").attr("disabled","disabled").addClass("disabled");
$("#aircraftModelSelect").removeAttr("disabled").removeClass("disabled");
});
