Show/Hide Text on Page

[\\\\ PassiveHero®]

Hello,

We have an intro page on our site that is growing rather lengthy. What I
would like to do is have the page load, but not with *all* of the article(s)
test ... rather show a snippet of an article, then have a "[+] more" link
which expands the remainder of the article text ... then a "[-] less" link
which would fold it back up.

Has anyone done anything similar? Thoughts, help?

Many thanks.

Kenneth

There is a tutorial on the BeyondFusion website on that.

Good luck on your project!

Thank you, Charles!

This looks to be what we're looking for, however it doesn't seem to want to
work within IE 7 ... seems to do fine with the latest version of FireFox.

Any thoughts relating to IE 7?

Best,

Ken

Hmmm...

The examples on this page:

http://www.beyondfusion.com/html/tutorial-showhide.php

....are working fine here on all browsers including my IE7.


Unless you had Javascript disabled, it should be working for you.

HTH,

Charles
