So, and if am understanding correctly... you have this html an are
after some sort of accordion like behavior
<ul>
<li class="evname">Event 1 Name</li>
<li class="evsum">Summary of Event 1</li>
<li class="evname">Event 2 Name</li>
<li class="evsum">Summary of Event 2</li>
<li class="evname">Event 3 Name</li>
<li class="evsum">Summary of Event 3</li>
<li class="evname">Event 4 Name</li>
<li class="evsum">Summary of Event 4</li>
etc etc..
</ul>
and you have "evsum" hidden by say:
.evsum { display: none; }
and you want to click on the "evname" and show the related "evsum"
if thats the case, the jQuery could be like:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".evname").click(function() {
$(this).next().toggle();
});
});
that would show (or hide, hence the use of "toggle") the respective
summary
