Doug, That is off the board. Do you think it will be possible to get rid of the history tracking on it. For some reason that always bothers me about the accordion, so I turn it off usually. Still, nice job! You rock dude.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: Anyone seen this effect as Flex module - Accordion Menu
We did something very similar to this using a VBox and container resizing. Basically, every other element is a clickresponsive component that on rollover changes the height of the previous container, with a resize effect added for good measure. Fairly simple, should take a decent developer about 30 minutes to implement.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Anyone seen this effect as Flex module - Accordion Menu
Brian, > Any chance on releasing the code? Actually, I think the original poster was asking if anybody knew of code or $$ which means commercial component. I spoke up and said I have a component commercially that I could make do that. So he asked if I could, so I did and that is what the example is of. The TaskPaneFX component set on my commercial site. So really the source code is just slightly extending my commercial pane component.
