Accordian Menu problem

[pcjuice]

1) Script Title: Glossy Accordion Menu

2) Script URL (on DD): http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...enu-glossy.htm

3) Describe problem: The menu worked great for 1 day.

The top (first) submenu lets me select any and all menu items and it stays open until I close it.

Choosing another submenu, I could select any menu item(s) and that submenu would stay open too until I closed it or chose another submenu.

Today, when I choose any submenu but the top one, it closes and the top submenu pops open.

Setup:

<script type="text/javascript">
ddaccordion.init({
	headerclass: "submenuheader", //Shared CSS class name of headers group
	contentclass: "submenu", //Shared CSS class name of contents group
	revealtype: "click", //Reveal content when user clicks or onmouseover the header? Valid value: "click" or "mouseover
	mouseoverdelay: 200, //if revealtype="mouseover", set delay in milliseconds before header expands onMouseover
	collapseprev: true, //Collapse previous content (so only one open at any time)? true/false 
	defaultexpanded: [], //index of content(s) open by default [index1, index2, etc] [] denotes no content
	onemustopen: false, //Specify whether at least one header should be open always (so never all headers closed)
	animatedefault: false, //Should contents open by default be animated into view?
	persiststate: true, //persist state of opened contents within browser session?
	toggleclass: ["", ""], //Two CSS classes to be applied to the header when it's collapsed and expanded, respectively ["class1", "class2"]
	togglehtml: ["suffix", "<img src='skins/Legend/styleImages/plus.gif' class='statusicon' />", "<img src='skins/Legend/styleImages/minus.gif' class='statusicon' />"], //Additional HTML added to the header when it's collapsed and expanded, respectively  ["position", "html1", "html2"] (see docs)
	animatespeed: "fast", //speed of animation: integer in milliseconds (ie: 200), or keywords "fast", "normal", or "slow"
	oninit:function(headers, expandedindices){ //custom code to run when headers have initalized
		//do nothing
	},
	onopenclose:function(header, index, state, isuseractivated){ //custom code to run whenever a header is opened or closed
		//do nothing
	}
})
</script>

All help greatly appreciated

Please try and format any code in your post using the CODE tags. It just makes it easier to read.

Did the structure of your menus change between then and now? If not, there's no reason why the menu would work one day and not the other. Please post a link to the page on your site that contains the problematic script so we can check it out.

Testing your page in both FF3.x and IE7, the last expanded sub menu does remain expanded when I go from pageA to pageB, by clicking on one of the links inside the corresponding sub menu on pageA. In other words, the persistence feature seems to be working fine for me. If that's not the issue, please clarify.

Thanks for your help.

The menu on my website when I view it from my computer still defaults back to the first opened selection when I open a different selection.

I just tried the menu on my wife's computer and not only did it default back to the first opened category, the menu even locked up. I'll have to try out some other accordian menus. I see the web is full of them.
