This is roughly equivalent to calling\n.css( \"display\", \"block\" )\n, except that the\ndisplay\nproperty is restored to whatever it was initially. If an element has a\ndisplay\nvalue of\ninline\n, then is hidden and shown, it will once again be displayed\ninline\n.\nNote:\nIf using !important in your styles, such as\ndisplay: none !important\n,\n.show()\nwill not override\n!important\n.\n    It is recommended to use different classes with\n.addClass()\n,\n.removeClass()\nor\n.toggleClass()\n. Another approach is using\n.attr( \"style\", \"display: block !important;\" )\n; be careful, though, as it overwrites the style attribute of the element.\nWhen a duration, a plain object, or a \"complete\" function is provided,\n.show()\nbecomes an animation method. The\n.show()\nmethod animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously.\nDurations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings\n'fast'\nand\n'slow'\ncan be supplied to indicate durations of\n200\nand\n600\nmilliseconds, respectively.\nAs of jQuery 1.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called\nswing\n, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called\nlinear\n. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the\njQuery UI suite\n.\nIf supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but\nthis\nis set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole.\nNote:\nThis method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes.\nWe can animate any element, such as a simple image:\n1\n2\n3\n4\n5\n6\n7\n8\n9\n10\n<\ndiv\nid\n=\n\"clickme\"\n>\nClick here\n<\/\ndiv\n>\n<\nimg\nid\n=\n\"book\"\nsrc\n=\n\"book.png\"\nalt\n=\n\"\"\nwidth\n=\n\"100\"\nheight\n=\n\"123\"\n>\nWith the element initially hidden, we can show it slowly:\n$( \"#clickme\" ).on( \"click\", function() {\n$( \"#book\" ).show( \"slow\", function() {\n\/\/ Animation complete.\n});\n});\nFigure 1 - Illustration of the\nshow()\neffect\nAdditional Notes:\nAll jQuery effects, including\n.show()\n, can be turned off globally by setting\njQuery.fx.off = true\n, which effectively sets the duration to 0.

This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( \"display\", \"block\" )`, except that the `display` property is restored to whatever it was initially. If an element has a `display` value of `inline`, then is hidden and shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`.\n\n**Note:**  If using !important in your styles, such as `display: none !important`, `.show()` will not override `!important`. It is recommended to use different classes with `.addClass()`, `.removeClass()` or `.toggleClass()`. Another approach is using `.attr( \"style\", \"display: block !important;\" )`; be careful, though, as it overwrites the style attribute of the element.\n\nWhen a duration, a plain object, or a \"complete\" function is provided, `.show()` becomes an animation method. The `.show()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously.\n\nDurations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively.\n\nAs of jQuery 1.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https:\/\/jqueryui.com\/).\n\nIf supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole.\n\n**Note:** This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes.\n\nWe can animate any element, such as a simple image:\n\n|   |   |\n|---|---|\n| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |   |\n\n![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_01.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_02.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_03.png) ![](https:\/\/api.jquery.com\/resources\/0042_06_04.png)\n\nFigure 1 - Illustration of the `show()` effect\n### Additional Notes:\n- All jQuery effects, including `.show()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0.

With no parameters, the .show() method is the simplest way to display an element: 1 $( ".target" ).show(); The matched elements will be revealed immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling .css( "display", "block" ) , except that the display property is restored to whatever it was initially. If an element has a display value of inline , then is hidden and shown, it will once again be displayed inline . Note: If using !important in your styles, such as display: none !important , .show() will not override !important . It is recommended to use different classes with .addClass() , .removeClass() or .toggleClass() . Another approach is using .attr( "style", "display: block !important;" ) ; be careful, though, as it overwrites the style attribute of the element. When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, .show() becomes an animation method. The .show() method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones.

If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 < div id = "clickme" > Click here </ div > < img id = "book" src = "book.png" alt = "" width = "100" height = "123" > With the element initially hidden, we can show it slowly: $( "#clickme" ).on( "click", function() { $( "#book" ).show( "slow", function() { // Animation complete. }); }); Figure 1 - Illustration of the show() effect Additional Notes: All jQuery effects, including .show() , can be turned off globally by setting jQuery.fx.off = true , which effectively sets the duration to 0. For more information, see jQuery.fx.off .

With no parameters, the `.show()` method is the simplest way to display an element: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 \| \| The matched elements will be revealed immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( "display", "block" )`, except that the `display` property is restored to whatever it was initially. If an element has a `display` value of `inline`, then is hidden and shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`. Note: If using !important in your styles, such as `display: none !important`, `.show()` will not override `!important`. It is recommended to use different classes with `.addClass()`, `.removeClass()` or `.toggleClass()`. Another approach is using `.attr( "style", "display: block !important;" )`; be careful, though, as it overwrites the style attribute of the element. When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, `.show()` becomes an animation method. The `.show()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively. As of jQuery 1.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https://jqueryui.com/). If supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole. Note:** This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 \| \| ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_01.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_02.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_03.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_04.png) Figure 1 - Illustration of the `show()` effect ### Additional Notes: - All jQuery effects, including `.show()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0. For more information, see [jQuery.fx.off](https://api.jquery.com/jquery.fx.off/). ## Examples: ### Example 1 Animates all hidden paragraphs to show slowly, completing the animation within 600 milliseconds. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 \| \| #### Demo: ### Example 2 Show the first div, followed by each next adjacent sibling div in order, with a 200ms animation.

(version added: [1\.8](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.8/)) - #### version added: [1\.4.3](https://api.jquery.com/category/version/1.4.3/)[.show( duration \[, easing \] \[, complete \] )](https://api.jquery.com/show/#show-duration-easing-complete) - duration (default: `400`) A string or number determining how long the animation will run. - easing (default: `swing`) A string indicating which easing function to use for the transition. - complete A function to call once the animation is complete, called once per matched element. With no parameters, the `.show()` method is the simplest way to display an element: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 \| \| The matched elements will be revealed immediately, with no animation. This is roughly equivalent to calling `.css( "display", "block" )`, except that the `display` property is restored to whatever it was initially. If an element has a `display` value of `inline`, then is hidden and shown, it will once again be displayed `inline`. Note: If using !important in your styles, such as `display: none !important`, `.show()` will not override `!important`. It is recommended to use different classes with `.addClass()`, `.removeClass()` or `.toggleClass()`. Another approach is using `.attr( "style", "display: block !important;" )`; be careful, though, as it overwrites the style attribute of the element. When a duration, a plain object, or a "complete" function is provided, `.show()` becomes an animation method. The `.show()` method animates the width, height, and opacity of the matched elements simultaneously. Durations are given in milliseconds; higher values indicate slower animations, not faster ones. The strings `'fast'` and `'slow'` can be supplied to indicate durations of `200` and `600` milliseconds, respectively. As of jQuery 1.4.3, an optional string naming an easing function may be used. Easing functions specify the speed at which the animation progresses at different points within the animation. The only easing implementations in the jQuery library are the default, called `swing`, and one that progresses at a constant pace, called `linear`. More easing functions are available with the use of plug-ins, most notably the [jQuery UI suite](https://jqueryui.com/). If supplied, the callback is fired once the animation is complete. This can be useful for stringing different animations together in sequence. The callback is not sent any arguments, but `this` is set to the DOM element being animated. If multiple elements are animated, it is important to note that the callback is executed once per matched element, not once for the animation as a whole. Note: This method may cause performance issues, especially when used on many elements. If you're encountering such issues, use performance testing tools to determine whether this method is causing them. Moreover, this method can cause problems with responsive layouts if the display value differs at different viewport sizes. We can animate any element, such as a simple image: \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 \| \| ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_01.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_02.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_03.png) ![](https://api.jquery.com/resources/0042_06_04.png) Figure 1 - Illustration of the `show()` effect ### Additional Notes: - All jQuery effects, including `.show()`, can be turned off globally by setting `jQuery.fx.off = true`, which effectively sets the duration to 0. For more information, see [jQuery.fx.off](https://api.jquery.com/jquery.fx.off/). ## Examples: ### Example 1 Animates all hidden paragraphs to show slowly, completing the animation within 600 milliseconds. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 \| \| #### Demo: ### Example 2 Show the first div, followed by each next adjacent sibling div in order, with a 200ms animation. Each animation starts when the previous sibling div's animation ends. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 \| \| #### Demo: ### Example 3 Show all span and input elements with an animation. Change the text once the animation is done. \| \| \| \|---\|---\| \| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 \| \| #### Demo:
