view + hide content by clicking link

**bewise** · Sep 21, 2006, 00:56

Hi all, I want to be able to hide and show content of my website by clicking on various heading links. i.e. by clickin on a specific heading, the info about that heading will appear under that heading. The content related to the heading is within a <div>.

Has any1 got any javascript code that will hide/show the content of the <div>, depending on how many times the link header is clicked?

Cheers

That tutorial helped me out no end. However, ive got a few extensions that id like to make to the code:

1. Id like the menus collapsed when the website is loaded. Ive tried the following, but im getting no luck:

The follwoing code is added to the top of the source file on a page of my web site:

Code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
     document.getElementById(idofadiv).style.display = "none"; 
</SCRIPT>

This does not collapse the menus. Any ideas?

2. When I click on all of the menus on 1 page of my website except 1 -> all menus, except 1 are collapsed.

When I click on one of the buttons under the extended menu, all of the other menus will suddenly become extended. Any ideas how I cna keep the collapsed menus sollapsed while working within the extended menu?

Cheeers

There's a pretty good tutorial on this here. It may be slightly different to the way you're doing it now but it works pretty good.

one problem with the tutorial that you mentioned, it requires a <body> tag.

Because im using a web control (.aspx) file, this does not contant a <body> tag, and if I try to entere one, an error will appear.

Any other ways I could go about this?
