Is it possible to execute a custom script by clicking on a button in Webflow?
Yes, it is possible to execute a custom script by clicking on a button in Webflow. Webflow provides a built-in interaction feature that allows you to create interactions and trigger them on different events, including a button click.
To execute a custom script on button click in Webflow, follow these steps:
Add a button element to your Webflow project by dragging and dropping it from the elements panel onto your page.
Give the button a unique class name or ID so that it can be targeted in the custom script.
Create a new script tag in your project by going to Project Settings > Custom Code. Paste your custom script inside the
<script></script>
tags. Alternatively, you can also use the Embed HTML element to add the script directly to your page.Open the interactions panel by clicking on the "Interactions" tab in the top navbar.
Click on the "+" button to create a new interaction and select the button trigger from the dropdown menu.
Choose the desired animation or action that you want to occur when the button is clicked. This could include showing/hiding an element, changing the style of an element, or running a custom script.
To execute your custom script on button click, select the "Run Custom Code" action. In the code editor that appears, enter the custom script that you want to execute. Make sure to reference the unique class name or ID of the button element so that the script targets the correct element.
Preview your site, and when you click on the button, the custom script should be executed.
Using the built-in interaction feature in Webflow, you can easily add interactivity and custom functionality to your buttons and other elements. It allows you to create engaging user experiences without the need for complex coding.
Example Code:
<script> document.querySelector('.custom-button').addEventListener('click', function() { // Custom script to be executed on button click console.log('Button clicked!'); });</script>
In the above example, replace .custom-button
with the actual class name or ID of your button element.
Now you can execute any custom script on button click in Webflow and enhance the functionality of your website.
