the script works but if the <div> tag put outside the <tr> and the </div> outside the </tr>

for example

<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.toggle('test')">test</a>
<div id="test" style="width: 679px; background: #FFFFFF; display:none"><table>
<tr>
<td>Hello!</td>
</tr>
</table></div>

it doesnt work at all

please help me. all i need is to work under tables and forms.

thank you very much in advance.

In future, please post about Dynamic Drive Scripts in the Dynamic Drive Scripts Help section here where I've moved this thread, and:

Warning: Please include a link to the DD script in question in your post. See this thread for the proper posting format when asking a question.

That said, your example works just fine here. What you cannot do though is to break up the flow of a table with div elements, so this would not work:

<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.toggle('test')">test</a>
<table><div id="test" style="width: 679px; background: #FFFFFF; display:none">
<tr>
<td>Hello!</td>
</tr>
</div></table>

This would not work:

<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.toggle('test')">test</a>
<table>
<tr><div id="test" style="width: 679px; background: #FFFFFF; display:none">
<td>Hello!</td></div>
</tr>
</table>

This would:

<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.toggle('test')">test</a>
<table>
<tr>
<td><div id="test" style="width: 679px; background: #FFFFFF; display:none">Hello!</div></td>
</tr>
</table>

You could even nest a full table inside the div if you need columns and/or rows.

Since I have no idea what kind of form you want, this is only a very basic example, but I hope you get the idea:

<a href="javascript:animatedcollapse.toggle('test')">test</a>
<table>
<tr>
<td><div id="test" style="width: 679px; background: #FFFFFF; display:none">

<form action="#">
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name=""></td><td><input type="text" name=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name=""></td><td><input type="text" name=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><input type="submit" value="Go!"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

</div></td>
</tr>
</table>
