Show/hide div on button click

I am trying to show and hide content depending on which button is pressed. The next button should show content 2 and hide content 1, and previous button should do the opposite.

<script type="text/javascript">
    $('a.button-next').click(function() {
        $("#tab-content2").addClass("show");
    });
</script>

CSS:

#tab-content2 {
    display: none;
}
#tab-content2.show {
    display: none;
}

HTML:

<div id="tab-content1">             
    <?php the_content(); ?>
</div>

<div id="tab-content2">     
    <?php the_field("experience");?>
</div>

<a href="javascript:;" class="button-back">Previous</a>
<a href="javascript:;" class="button-next">next</a>

Have you tried transferring the show class on another line?

.show
{
    display: block;
}

HTML

<div id="tab-content-holder">
    <div id="tab-content1 show">             
        <?php the_content(); ?>
    </div>

    <div id="tab-content2">     
        <?php the_field("experience");?>
    </div>
</div>

<a href="#" class="button-back">Previous</a>
<a href="#" class="button-next">Next</a>

JS

$(document).ready(function() {
    $(".button-back").click(function() {
        MenuNavigationClick(-1);
    });
    $(".button-next").click(function() {
        MenuNavigationClick(1);
    });

    function MenuNavigationClick(direction) {
        // Get current element index and toggle
        var current = $("#tab-content-holder .show");
        var index = current.index();
        current.toggleClass("show");

        // Move to next element and check for overflow
        index += 1 * direction;
        index %= $("#tab-content-holder div").length;

        // Toggle next element
        $("#tab-content-holder div:eq("+index+")").toggleClass("show");
    }
});

CSS

#tab-content-holder div {
    display: none;
}
#tab-content-holder div.show {
    display: block;
}

Use a generic class for all content

<div class="content" id="tab-content1">             
    <?php the_content(); ?>
</div>
<div class="content" id="tab-content2">     
    <?php the_field("experience");?>
</div>

<a href="javascript:;" class="button-back">Previous</a>
<a href="javascript:;" class="button-next">next</a>

So the css would be

.content {
    display: none;
}

And the Javascript

$('a.button-next').click(function() {
    $('.content').hide(); // To hide all other contents
    $("#tab-content2").show(); // Show the one content you want to display
});

Try this...

$('a.button-next').on('click', function() {
    $("#tab-content2").toggle("show");
});

The display property of show is none.

Change it to block.

Also, you can just use the .show() or .hide() function instead of using classes.

Try toggleClass and don't forgot to use document.ready():

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('a.button-next').click(function() {
        $("#tab-content2").toggleClass("show");
    });
});

#tab-content2.show {display:block;}
