Using the jQuery below to toggle the
hiding and showing of divs of text: how would I add some sort of indicator - like an up and down arrow as a graphic - to the titles when the divs are either open and closed? What's the best way to do that? Two images? A CSS sprite? And most importantly: how would that be integrated into the JS?
I've looked at other jQuery that assigns a random number to each div and then determines which are open and which are closed and toggles one of two images. But I'm using php in a WordPress loop to show a posts, and that gives problems with incrementing in the loop, so there must be an easier way that doesn't require changes in the name of the title div. Thanks....
This JS fires the showing and
hiding. Each div can be expanded and collapsed independently.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('div.demo-show:eq(0)> div').hide();
$('div.demo-show:eq(0)> h3').click(function() {
$(this).next().slideToggle('fast');
});
});
This is the HTML it works with:
<div class="collapser">
<p class="title">Header-1 </p>
<div class="contents">Lorem ipsum</div>
<p class="title">Header-2</p>
<div class="contents">Lorem ipsum </div>
<p class="title">Header-3</p>
<div class="contents">Lorem ipsum</div>
</div>
The CSS is arbitrary:
.collapser {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 500px;
}
.title {
margin: 1px;
color: #fff;
padding: 3px 10px;
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
background-color:#c30;
}
.contents {
padding: 5px 10px;
background-color:#fafafa;
}
