Please checkout the updated demo: http://joern.jquery.com/accordion/accordion.html It's now even more flexible: handling nested div structures (third example) is possible as long as the header is marked somehow. And what is really cool: I managed to hijack jQuery's event system: The accordion now triggers a "change" event everytime the content changes, so clients can simply bind to that callback if they are interested. The code from the demo: $('#list2').Accordion({ active: 'dt.selected' }).change(function(event, newHeader, oldHeader, newContent, oldContent) { simpleLog(oldHeader.text() + ' hidden'); simpleLog(newHeader.text() + ' shown'); }); And even more intersting, it's now possible to trigger this change programmatically, just like tab's triggerTab. From the demo: $('#switch select').change(function() { $('#list1, #list2').activate( this.selectedIndex-1 ); }); The implementation for activate is this: $.fn.activate = function(index) { return this.trigger('activate', [index || 0]); }; The Accordion widget binds itself to the activate event and can easily access all necessary settings that way. That way I don't have to pass around lots of variables, or in the worst case, bind them directly to DOM elements. @Klaus: I think it would be pretty easy to modify the tab's plugin to use the same event. As you may notice, my usage for activate has some small differences. I prefer a zero-based index as most programmers are used to that anyway. I hope you can reuse some of the ideas from the accordion, because I got a lot of inspiration from your tabs :-) @Yehuda: Could you please update your build.xml? I added both tooltip and accordion, would be nice to see the docs on visualjquery.com -- Jörn Zaefferer http://bassistance.de _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
