A lightweight plugin for enabling expandable/collapsible content.
- Packaged with cookie support (yum yum!)
- Lightweight (655 bytes minified and gzipped)
- ARIA compliant
Enjoy!
HTML:
<div id="demo"> <h3>Fruits</h3> <ul> <li>Apple</li> <li>Pear</li> <li>Orange</li> </ul> <h3>Info</h3> <div> <p>You can use any container you like (in this case a div)</p> </p> </div>
JavaScript:
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="jquery.collapse.js"></script> <script src="jquery.cookie.js"></script> <!-- If you want cookie support --> <script> $(function() { $("#demo").collapse(); }); </script>
Note: If you're using the plugin on different pages on the same domain, you'll have to have a unique cookie name for each instance to avoid conflict. Use the "cookie" option to set a unique cookie name.
- show (function) : Custom function for showing content (default: function(){ this.show() })

Probably works in most modern browsers, but only tested in: Safari, Chrome, IE6+, Firefox3+, Opera10+
Google Chrome does not work with cookies if run locally (i.e file://) For more details: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=535
