Show one div while hiding other divs with jquery on click on links

I am trying to create a navigation schema that contains a row of links and a number of divs. When I click on link 1, I want to show div 1. If I click on link 2, I want to hide 1 and show 2, etc.

I managed to get the following code to work. What happens however is that when any other link on the page is clicked, the div that is currently being displayed disappears / hides.

I've tried various solutions but couldn't figure it out. Can someone provide some insight as to what might be happening based on the code below.

HTML:

    <ul id="navigation">
        <li data-tab="property" class="activeitem settingLink active"><a href="#">Property Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="openhouse" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Open House Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="postcards" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Postcards</a></li>
        <li data-tab="mortgage" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Mortgage Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="recruiting" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Recruiting Flyers</a></li>
    </ul>


    <div id="property" class="span-18 last"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" /></div>
    <div id="openhouse" class="span-18 last"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" /></div>
    <div id="Postcards" class="span-18 last"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" /></div>
    <div id="Mortgage" class="span-18 last"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" /></div>
    <div id="Recruiting" class="span-18 last"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" /></div>

JavaScript:

$('a').on('click', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var $li = $(this).closest('li');

    var tab = $li.data('tab');
    var current = $('.active.settingLink').data('tab');

    $('#' + current).fadeOut('fast', function() {
        //Slide the new div down
        $('#' + tab).fadeIn();
    });

    //Remove active class from current link
    $('.active.settingLink').removeClass('active');

    $li.addClass('active');
});

$('a')

targets every tag <a>

on the page, you need a more specific selector:



$("#navigation a');

source 


$("#navigation a").on(...

that it is really the case to bind the click event only to your navigation links; your code binds this event to all links it finds in the body of the document, so you only need a more precise selector



nb: you must delegate

Example: http://jsfiddle.net/9UPQj/

<ul id="navigation">
        <li data-tab="property" class="activeitem settingLink active"><a href="#">Property Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="openhouse" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Open House Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="postcards" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Postcards</a></li>
        <li data-tab="mortgage" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Mortgage Flyers</a></li>
        <li data-tab="recruiting" class="settingLink"><a href="#">Recruiting Flyers</a></li>
    </ul>


    <div id="property" class="span-18 last" rel="1"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" />1st</div>
    <div id="openhouse" class="span-18 last" rel="2"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" />2nd</div>
    <div id="Postcards" class="span-18 last" rel="3"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" />3rd</div>
    <div id="Mortgage" class="span-18 last" rel="4"><img src="images/templates/thumbs/property84.jpg" width="143" height="194" />4th</div>

JS:

$('#navigation a').on('click', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var index = $('a').index(this) + 1;

    $('div').each(function(){

        if($(this).attr('rel') == index){
            $(this).addClass('active');
            $(this).show();
        }else{
            $(this).removeClass('active');
            $(this).hide();
        }
    });

});
