Add and remove class active on button with jquery onclick function

I'm actually using this button group structure with bootstrap. Now I need to add class active to each button when I click on it. And remove from it when I click on another button.

This is my HTML structure, is something like that:

<body>
    <div id="header">
        <div class="logo">Prova<span class="sec-logo">toscana</span>15</div>
        <div class="bottoni">
            <div class="btn-group" role="group" aria-label="...">
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b1">12345</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b2">12345</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b3">12345</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b4">12345</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b5">12345</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="b6">12345</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</body>

Someone who could help me? Thanks.

I hope this will help you because it works perfectly for me

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
    $(".btn").each(function(){
       $(this).click(function(){
          $(this).addClass("active");
          $(this).siblings().removeClass("active");
       });
    });
});
</script>

Try this one

if .active class should not be removed from active button after clicking on it please use addClass instead of toggelClass

$("#header .btn-group[role='group'] button").on('click', function(){
    $(this).siblings().removeClass('active')
    $(this).addClass('active');
})

jsfiddle example

it is also good practice to narrow buttons selection, I used #heade id and .btn-group[role='group'] which makes script applied only on buttons inside all button groups iside <div id="header"></div>

and here you have .active class definition:

.btn.active{
    background-color: red;
}

You should use a combination of .each() and .click() here. So it will target every button in stead of only the first

$('#header .btn').each(function(){
    $(this).click(function(){
        $(this).siblings().removeClass('active'); // if you want to remove class from all sibling buttons
        $(this).toggleClass('active');
    });
});

You are looking for something like:

$('.btn').on('click', function(){
    $(this).siblings().removeClass('active'); // if you want to remove class from all sibling buttons
    $(this).toggleClass('active');
});

Check jsFiddle
