Hi.

I'm new to jQuery and trying to get a blind/slidedown effect to work.
I read all the tutorials and examples I could find, but for some
reason I couldn't find any solution for this specific problem.
I hope someone in this mailing list can help!

Basically, I want a simple slidedown or blind effect. However, I want
to have it start with the content hidden.

Example:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-1.3.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery-ui-1.5.3.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
        $(".toggle").click(function(){
      if ($("#hiddencontent").is(":hidden")) {
        $("#hiddencontent").slideDown("slow");
      } else {
        $("#hiddencontent").slideUp("slow");
      }
    });
});
</script>

</head>
<body>
<a href="#" class="toggle">Click here to view more</a>
<div id="hiddencontent">
This is the content that is hidden when the page is loaded
</div>
</body>
</html>

This works, except that the DIV with the content that is supposed to
be hidden, is visible.
I'm lost with this one. I tried
http://docs.jquery.com/Effects/slideDown#speedcallback
http://ui.jquery.com/demos/effects_showhide/
and http://www.webdesignerwall.com/demo/jquery/simple-slide-panel.html
but for some reason, none work with the content hidden at start.

Help!

Many thanks in advance.
