How to apply the fadeToggle() to only toggle the selected class.(i have multiple class's with the same name)

i have 3 .slot classes. inside the .slot contains .top .linkbar and .linktext.

When i click on the first .slot .top i want the first .linktext to appear underneath.

With my code so far. when i click on the first .slot .top it shows all of 3 of the .linktext.

i want it to work depending on which .slot .top i click, meaning if i click the bottom .slot .top it will show the bottom .linktext.

CSS: .slot{ margin-bottom: 30px; width: 600px; height: inherit; box-shadow: 0px 0px 10px #e7a61b; border-bottom-left-radius: 0px; border-bottom-right-radius: 0px; border-top-left-radius: 14px; border-top-right-radius: 14px; border: 1px solid #7e7b75; float: left;

    }
    .slot:hover{
        box-shadow: 0px 0px 25px #e7a61b;
    }

    .top{
        width: 600px;
        height: 171px;
        border-top-left-radius: 14px;
        border-top-right-radius: 14px;
        float: left;
    }

    .linkbar{
        width: 600px;
        height: 37px;
        background-image: url('../img/linkbar2.gif');
        float: left;
    }


    .linktext{
        width: 600px;
        height: inherit;
        border-bottom-left-radius: 14px;
        border-bottom-right-radius: 14px;
        float: left;
        display: none;
     }

HTML <div class="slot"> <div class="top"> <?php echo $this->html->image('carpark.gif');?> </div> <div class="linkbar"> <h3>Car Parks</h3> </div> <div class="linktext"> <h4>-hello</h4> <h4>-hello</h4> <h4>-hello</h4> </div> </div><!-- END OF SLOT -->

                            <div class="slot">
                                            <div class="top">
                                                <?php echo $this->html->image('road.gif');?>
                                            </div>

                                            <div class="linkbar">
                                                <h3>Road Markings</h3>
                                            </div> 
                                            <div class="linktext">

                           </div><!-- END OF SLOT -->



                            <div class="slot">
                                            <div class="top">

                                            </div>

                                            <div class="linkbar">
                                                <h3>Sports Court</h3>
                                            </div> 
                                            <div class="linktext">
                                                <h4>-hello</h4>
                                                <h4>-hello</h4>
                                                <h4>-yo</h4>
                                            </div>
                           </div><!-- END OF SLOT -->

Jquery:

                 $('document').ready(function () {
                    $('.slot').hide();
                    $('.linktext').hide();
                    $('body').fadeIn(2000);
                    $('.slot').slideDown(2000);

                });







                $('.top').click(function () {

                    $('.linktext').fadeToggle('slow');

                });

You might try something like this:

$('.top').click(function () {
  $(this).siblings('.linktext').fadeToggle('slow');
});

The way you have it, $('.linktext') is selecting all the elements with that class. You can narrow your selection using $(this) to only elements that are somehow related to the element receiving the click event.
