Expand the width of the input field smoothly on click

I want to display an input field .search

when clicking on a class .icon

. I managed to do it with the following code. However, instead of show / hide, I want to display the input field by smoothly expanding its width.

How can I do that?

JSFiddle Demo:

HTML:

<div class="box">
    <input class="search" type="search" placeholder="Search" />
     <div class="icon"></div>  
</div>

CSS

.box{
    position: relative;
    width: 220px;
}

.search {    
    width: 200px;
    padding: 5px;
      -webkit-transition: all .5s ease;
    -moz-transition: all .5s ease;
    transition: all .5s ease;
    float: left;
}


.icon{
    width: 20px;
    height: 20px;
    background: red; 
    position: absolute; 
    right: 0;
}

JS:

$('.icon').click(function() {
    $('.search').toggle();
});

Why not change the code to switch the class, thus keeping a clear separation between functionality (JS) and styling (CSS)

Below is some sample code that you probably want to edit for your exact needs.

Demo script

Js



$('.icon').click(function() {
    $('.search').toggleClass('expanded');
});

CSS

 .box {
    position: relative;
    width: 220px;
}
.search {
    width: 200px;
    max-width:0;
    padding: 5px;
    transition: all .5s ease;
    position:absolute;
    right:20px;
    box-sizing:border-box;
    opacity:0;
}
.search.expanded {
    max-width:200px;
    opacity:1;
}
.icon {
    width: 20px;
    height: 20px;
    background: red;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0;
}

You must use .slideToggle()

orfadeToggle() 



$('.icon').click(function() {
    $('.search').slideToggle(500);
});
