I have four DIVS, one is ready and the other three are still hidden. When the link to the second div is pressed, I want the second div to show up, and so for the next link.
The problem is, all the four DIV doesn't have ID and has the same class.
I just want it to automatically run without knowing what is the ID and the class of the div, or anything inside the div. It may look like a slideshow but on click function.
<p> link to the ready div </P>
<p> link to the second div </P>
<p> link to the third div </P>
<p> link to the last div </P>
<div id="wrapper">
<div> this is the div that is ready. This div has no ID and has the same class with others <div>
<div> this is the second div that is hidden. This div has no ID and has the same class with others <div>
<div> this is the third div that is hidden. This div has no ID and has the same class with others <div>
<div> this is the last div that is hidden. This div has no ID and has the same class with others <div>
</div>

Explanation
<div class="parentDiv">
<div class="div">1</div>
<div class="div">2</div>
<div class="div">3</div>
<div class="div">4</div>
</div>
<div class="buttons">
<a idx="1">1</a>
<a idx="2">2</a>
<a idx="3">3</a>
<a idx="4">4</a>
</div>
$('.buttons a').click(
function(event)
{
var idx = $(event.target).attr('idx');
$('.div').hide(); //Hides all the divs
$('.parentDiv div:nth-child('+idx+')').show(); // Shows required div
}
);
DISADVANTAGE
If you will insert more contents, there is more work. Else no problem.. If you insert a div , you have to change all the links.
<div class="parentDiv">
<div class="div">1</div>
<div class="div">2.0 Inserted Div</div>
<div class="div">2</div>
<div class="div">3</div>
<div class="div">4</div>
</div>
<div class="buttons">
<a idx="1">1</a>
<a idx="2">2.0</a>
<a idx="3">2</a>
<a idx="4">3</a>
<a idx="5">4</a>
</div>
Not here , All the idx has to be changed. Since my code uses nth-child property

Im pretty sure this is what you are looking for.
jQuery
$(".options p").click(function () {
var ourPick = $("p").index(this) + 1;
$(".container div:nth-child(" + ourPick + ")").show();
});
So what we are doing is getting the index for the link pressed and then using that to select the div
we want to show (this is using :nth-child()
).
Note: I have put a container around the links so you it doesn't pick up every p
on the page.
If you want only one at a time you can just set them all to hide before showing one.
jQuery:
$(".options p").click(function () {
var ourPick = $("p").index(this) + 1;
$(".container div").hide();
$(".container div:nth-child(" + ourPick + ")").show();
});

i have made a fiddle that might suite your case please have a look. You can make some modifications according to your needs.
var currentDiv = 0;
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".container div").click(function(){
$(".container div").eq(currentDiv+1).css( "display", "block" );
currentDiv++;
})
});
