View in separate window

<html>
<head>
<script 
 src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js">
</script>/*from   w w  w.j av  a2 s  .  co  m*/
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $("button").click(function(){
    $("p").slideToggle();
  });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<button>test</button>

</body>

The ready event occurs when the document object model (DOM) has been loaded.

Two syntaxes can be used:

$(document).ready(function)
