Bootstrap Collapse Not Working with JQuery
Make sure Jquery is included above Bootstrap, it works fine
$('#collapseDiv').collapse("toggle");.white-link{color:#fff;}<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<div class="panel panel-primary">
<div class="panel-heading" id="panel-head">
<a data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#collapseDiv" class="white-link" id="toggle">Records Added
<span class="indicator glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-down pull-left pad-right" id ="glyphicon"></span>
</a>
</div>
<div id="collapseDiv" class="panel-collapse collapse">
<div class="panel-body">I was having the same problem.... So in JQuery I did something like this:
$('#collapseDiv').removeClass('show');
As mentioned in official doc...
- .collapse hides content
- .collapsing is applied during transitions
- collapse.show shows content
so that is why I removed 'show' class and it worked for me... only drawback is that it hides immediately (without any animation)
