Toggle button and Toggle visibility

I'm using this jQuery to hide a DIV:

$("#slider").click(function() {
    $(".help").slideToggle();
    $("#wrapper").animate({ opacity: 1.0 },200).slideToggle(200, function() {
    $("#slider a").text($(this).is(':visible') ? "Hide" : "Show");
    });
});

Instead of altering the text show I want to display a graphic, I want the grpahic to change based on the .toggle

Current HMTL:

<div id="wrapper">
  LI ITEMS
</div>

<div class="help">
  IMAGE
</div>

<div id="slider">
  <a href="#">Hide</a>
</div>

I'd like to add two images into .slider, removing the <a>:

<div id="slider">
<img class="show" title="Hide" alt="Hide" src="images/showbutton.png" />
<img class="hide" title="Hide" alt="Hide" src="images/hidebutton.png" />
</div>

Perhaps I can use css to hide the 'hide' button, then switch that using jquery in some way?

Any suggestions?

You can hide one initially via CSS, then just toggle the two in your function, use this for CSS:

.hide { dislay: none; } //Reverse if "Hide" should be the default button

And this jQuery, using .toggle() (without arguments, it toggles visibility):

$("#slider").click(function() {
  $(".help").slideToggle();
  $("#wrapper").animate({ opacity: 1.0 },200).slideToggle(200, function() {
    $("#slider img").toggle();
  });
});

This would toggle the visibility of both images...since one's hidden and you only have 2, it effectively swaps them. Also make sure to fix your alt/title attributes on the .show one for the screen reader folks :)
