Expandable Boxes

[Tryst]

Hi all,

Can anyone direct me to a good tutorial that shows how to create these expandable boxes, such as the ones used here on the Sitepoint Forum index page.

I'm hazarding a guess that these are done in either CSS or Javascript, or even both

Thanks

Hi,

Fell free to use my code from www.dersilanlari.com

Basically it's two different stylesheets with one telling the column to display: none;


All the javascript does is sets a cookie and allows you to switch between styles when clicking a button.

Thanks

So the expandable links/boxes in the forum index work in a similar way to the way you have implemented you CSS?

Nice web site by the way

Yup! While the CSS may vary slightly, it has exactly the same functionality. The javascript used was obtained from www.alistapart.com if I remember correctly.

offtopic:
I appreciate the comment. Possibly the worst example though, as I wasnt responsible for the layout design.

Well I have a little javascript on my site that you can tell it to not display a class on onClick.
