Show method callback not working properly

[pareshvarde]

here is my code:

function showProfile(id) {

$('#profile_' + id).show("slow", hideAllProfile(id));

}

function hideAllProfile(id) {

$(".profilePopup:not(#profile_" + id + ")").hide();

}

I have series of DIVs in my content. I want to make sure that I am opening a second divs it should close all others. Hence on call back of show methods I am calling "hideAllProfile" to hide all other divs. However this is not giving me expected result. This results in multiple DIVs being opened on my page.

When you say hideAllProfile(id) you are executing the function immediately. The easiest way to pass a parameter is via a closure:

function showProfile(id) {
   $('#profile_' + id).show("slow", function(){
      $(".profilePopup:not(#profile_" + id + ")").hide();
   });
}

If you need further help with jQuery, please ask on one of the jQuery forums rather than opening a bug report.
