Hello Brian, What you are seeking is not currently possible with CSS. The clocking of an element can reveal a hidden (removed from the flow) child element but once this child element is revealed, no selecting of another element can hide it again. This may be possible in CSS3 and with browser support of parent selectors as opposed to child selectors. At this present time only Opera 9+, Safari 4 and I think Firefox 3 (Gecko 1.9) will reveal any hidden child elements. Here is a demo somewhat similar to your request but with child list. <http://css-class.com/test/css/selectors/pseudo/tree-branch1.htm> IE8 in all it greatness with CSS2.1 will not play along with this demo. -- Alan http://css-class.com/ Armies Cannot Stop An Idea Whose Time Has Come. - Victor Hugo ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
