Why can't I change a value using a function in AngularJS?
html:
<div ng-controler='TestCtrl' id='TestCtrl'>
<h1>Test: {{test.name}}</h1>
<div ng-hide='showTest'>
<div class='content'>
<p>First name: <input ng-model='firstName'></p>
<p>Last name: <input ng-model='lastName'></p>
</div>
<div jq-ui-button ng-click='doSth()'>
Do something
</div>
</div>
</div>
JS:
app.controller('TestCtrl', function ($scope) {
$scope.showTest = false;
$scope.test = {name:'Test name'};
$scope.doSth = function() {
$scope.showTest = true;
}
}
This setup does not seem to work. However, changing it to the following works:
<div jq-ui-button ng-click='showTest = true'>
Why is there a problem with the initial approach?
