Hiding button does not work using jquery

I have a partial class in Asp MVC that goes like this:

<div class="table-responsive">
  <table class="table" id="tbl_visitors" data-animate="fadeInRight">
    <thead>
      <tr>
        <th>
          @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.VisitorId)
        </th>
        <th>
          @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.FirstName)
        </th>
        <th>
          @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.LastName)
        </th>
        <th>
          @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.TicketId)
        </th>
        <th>
          @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.RequestStatus)
        </th>
        <th></th>
        <th></th>
      </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
      @foreach (var item in Model) {
      <tr>
        <td>
          @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.VisitorId)
        </td>
        <td>
          @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.FirstName)
        </td>
        <td>
          @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.LastName)
        </td>
        <td>
          @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.TicketId)
        </td>
        <td>
          @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.RequestStatus)
        </td>
        <td id="item_checkbox">
          @if (item.RequestStatus != "Pending") {
          <input [email protected] checked="checked" class="use-this switch-toggle switch-flat-mini switch-toggle-flat" type="checkbox">
          <label [email protected]></label>
          } else {
          <input [email protected] class="use-this switch-toggle switch-flat-mini switch-toggle-flat" type="checkbox">
          <label [email protected]></label>
          }
        </td>
        <th>
          <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="deletevisitor(@item.VisitorId, @item.TicketId ) ">Remove</a>
        </th>
      </tr>
      }
    </tbody>
  </table>
</div>
<div class="alignright" id="div_btn_approve">
  <button id="btn_approve_ticket" class="button button-border button-rounded button-green">Approve</button>
</div>

and a script to disable the button in the partial view in my "index" view like so:

function getVisitorsOfApprovedTicket(ticketId, requestedBy, schedule) {
  var url = '/Member/GetVisitorViaTicketId?ticketId=' + ticketId;
  $("#div_approved_ticket_visitors").load(url);
  $("#hidden_created_by").val(requestedBy);
  //$("#btn_approve_ticket").prop( "disabled", true );
  $("#btn_approve_ticket").hide();
}

When I try to hide it in my partial view by creating the script, it hides the button but why doesn't it work on my index view when I call the partial view? Can you please show me how to do it right? Thank you.

Because .load is not finished yet and you try to .hide() an element that does not exist:

function getVisitorsOfApprovedTicket(ticketId, requestedBy, schedule) {
  var url = '/Member/GetVisitorViaTicketId?ticketId=' + ticketId;
  // this is a async process
  $("#div_approved_ticket_visitors").load(url);
  $("#hidden_created_by").val(requestedBy);
  //$("#btn_approve_ticket").prop( "disabled", true );
  // you are trying to hide an element that is not present yet.
  $("#btn_approve_ticket").hide();
}

If you want to hide an element that is inside this var url = '/Member/GetVisitorViaTicketId?ticketId=' + ticketId; view. You need to wait it load first before proceeding:

function getVisitorsOfApprovedTicket(ticketId, requestedBy, schedule) {
  var url = '/Member/GetVisitorViaTicketId?ticketId=' + ticketId;
  // this is a async process
  $("#div_approved_ticket_visitors").load(url, function () {
    // this function is called after its done
    // here you can safely hide the element
    $("#btn_approve_ticket").hide();
  });
  $("#hidden_created_by").val(requestedBy);
  //$("#btn_approve_ticket").prop( "disabled", true );
}

hope that helps
