显示隐藏元素

Show hidden elements

我对下面的 jquery 代码有疑问,因为我不完全理解它是如何工作的。我想知道 javascript 如何知道当我点击第一个带有 class showMore 的 ahref 时它只会取消隐藏带有 class hiddenSpan 的第一个隐藏元素,当我点击第二个元素,JS 取消隐藏第二个隐藏元素。这两个元素具有相同的 hiddenSpan classes 那么如何识别这些元素?

JavaScript

(function($) {

$(".hiddenSpan").hide();

$(document).ready(function() {

    $(".showMore").on("click", function(e) {

        e.preventDefault();

        var $this = $(this),

        if(content.is(":hidden")) {
            content.slideDown(700);
            $this.text("Show less");
        } else {

            $this.text("Show more");
        }

    });
});

})(jQuery);
$(".showMore").on("click", function(e) {//this is clicking the class

    e.preventDefault();

    var $this = $(this),//as there is more than one with same class 'this' is referancing the clicke done
        content = $this.prev();//here he gets the previous element of the clicked one

    if(content.is(":hidden")) {//asks if it is hidden or no
        content.slideDown(700);//if hjidden then show it
        $this.text("Show less");//set the text of a tag to "show less"
    } else {
        content.slideUp();// else if not hidden then hide it
        $this.text("Show more");//the the text of a tag to show more.
    }

});
