SPJeff

I looked over many threads and posts on many sites and wasn’t able to find code that worked for me.    Some of it would be close.   Others buggy.   Below I’ve outlined the JQuery code that worked perfectly for my needs and I hope you find it helpful too.

This example was deployed to a SharePoint page so the “/_layouts/images/plus.gif” was used to leverage the OOTB graphics for a plus/minus icon feel.

First Header

Second Header

Supporting .JS

// bind to accordion object
$(document).ready(function(){
	$('#container').accordion({
		header: “h3?
	});
});
// actions taken upon clicking the expand all (collapse all) link
$('#container #expand').click( function() {
	// if link was expand then show and toggle text
	var currHTML = $('#container #expand').html();
	if (currHTML.indexOf(“Expand All”)>0) {
		$('#container .section').slideDown();
		$('#container #expand').html(“ Collapse All”);
	} else {
		// if link was collapse then hide and toggle text
		$('#container .section').slideUp();
		$('#container .section').each(function(i){
			if (i==0) $(this).slideDown();
		});
		$('#container #expand').html(“ Expand All”);
	}
});
