A match with what ?    And which event handler might that be ?    And what 
is started with ?

Although you posted code that has nothing to do with your question 
(all_hide), you fully forgot(?) to post the code which you currently have 
got for the toggeling you're after.   So whe have NO way to know what you 
are babbeling about when you mention "compare with". :-(

That is ... if you already have (the first steps of) such code.   Do you ?

If not, you could do worse than to look here

https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/event_onclick.asp

and than especially the example starting with

<p onclick="myFunction(this, 'red')">

Yeah, "onclick" is the keyword.  I threw it into google together with 
"javascript" and got the above link as the very first result.    Why didn't 
you find that, or a comparable example yourself ?   Did you at all /look/ ?

Rudy Wieser
