SImple class-based jquery show/hide for multiple, independent instances?

Is there a way to have many, many instances开发者_运维知识库 of jquery-based show/hide (toggle link followed by container with hidden content; toggle text changes depending on state) on a page using only classes and not IDs? I haven't found a reasonably well-documented, functional example anywhere. Thanks for any and all help! --cg

Something like:

<div class="toggleset">
  <a class="toggler" href="#">Hide</a>
  <div class="container">
    Data to show/hide
  </div>
</div>

$('.toggler').click(function(evt) {
  var $toggler = $(this);
  var $container = $toggler.siblings('.container');

  $container.toggle();
  $toggler.text($container.is(':visible') ? "Hide" : "Show");
  evt.preventDefault();
});

You don't need the outer div if you use next() instead of siblings, but it ties the script tighter to the markup.

Thanks a lot, Rob. Works well! I've managed to make it so secondary classes can control what the toggle text is in both states:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
$(document).ready(function() {

$('.toggler.show').click(function(evt) {
  var $toggler = $(this);
  var $container = $toggler.siblings('.container');

  $container.toggle();
  $toggler.text($container.is(':visible') ? "Show less" : "Show more");
  $(this).toggleClass('active');
})

$('.toggler.read').click(function(evt) {
  var $toggler = $(this);
  var $container = $toggler.siblings('.container');

  $container.toggle();
  $toggler.text($container.is(':visible') ? "Read less" : "... Read more");
  $(this).toggleClass('active');
})
evt.preventDefault();
});
-->
</script>

How would I take advantage of jquery "slide" toggle? I tried changing

$container.toggle();

to something like

$container.slideToggle('fast');

but that breaks the text change on the toggle. --cg
