Howdy,
I'm having a strange error that a if statement isn't working.

	 $("input[name*='default']").click(function() { 
		if($(this).val() != "Custom"){
			$(".crawlers").hide();
			$(".special").hide();
		} else {
			$(".crawlers").show();
			$(".special").show();
		}
	}); 
	

And my html:

<input type="radio" name="default" value="Allow" checked>
<input type="radio" name="default" value="Refuse">
<input type="radio" name="default" value="Custom">

Basically, .crawlers and .special (set by id and name) aren't hiding or showing when the radio buttons are clicked. The value is definitely changing, I added and alert on $(this).val() and it showed me the alert as Custom, Allow or Refuse.

Any idea what's going on?

But you have said look for elements with their "CLASS" set as crawlers and special... in other words elements like...

<div class="crawlers">something crawly</div>
<div class="special">something special</div>

If you want to specify by ID then you need...

$("#crawlers").hide();
$("#special").hide();

By using the period in the front of the name you are telling jQuery to look for elements with the matching class name... not ID or NAME.

Ha! I knew it was a simple issue, 30 minutes I was staring at this!

Thankyou
