HTML/JavaScript help

[deevil]

Hello everybody,

I have a question for all of you familiar with HTML/Javascript, that sort of thing. I am a pisspoor web designer who gets all of my "ideas" etc. by stealing from other websites, but alas, I can't find a site to rip off this from.

I would like to have content on a page "scroll open" to reveal more content (on that same page, under that heading) when the user clicks on the topic. I'm sure I've seen this done before, and I just can't find any examples of it anywhere. Could some of you lend me your expertise?

for example you'd have

blah1

blah2

blah3

-----------------------------------------

user would click blah1 and get

blah1
fkljasdlfjsdlfjlj dfljadkl;fjlasdkjfldk afjldjsf' l;jflasdj ff'adsjldfjldasj f
jlfsajdlfj asdlfjklasdfj klasdj fljsdakfljsdfkl;jka dlkjdf l
asdjlfjal;sd fjlasjfldjfl;dfj lasdfjk
djf
alsdfjlajsldfjlasdjflajsd fljasdf
asdjfl;
asdfjasd

blah2

blah3

----------------------------------------

Thanks in advance!

Great link, thank you!:banana:

If I read you requirements correctly,
I think you just need to use the anchor <a> tag.

As I said, a great link, very useful. Exactly the sort of script I needed and it was implemented well. However, can you think of any reason why the folding tree structure will not work unless the page is refreshed?

On first visit to the page, no amount of clicking produces a result (this includes the sample page, not just my own implementation). However, if I click on refresh, the tree does work?!:confused:

no clue, worked fine first time around for me.

I'm using Mozilla and it didn't work the first time either.
