Question about jumping content as an effect of Accordion menu script

[nharding99]

1) Script Title: Accordion Content script (v1.7)

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

3) Describe problem: Bearing in mind that I'm quite new to css & javascript... the answer may be simple! I find that if I add some content to the right of this accordion menu (I'm using the bulleted example) then my content text jumps down the page when a menu is expanded.

This is best illustrated by this small example:

Click on the "About Us" button and see the content jump down as the menu expands.

How can I remove this effect and have the menu expand but the content text in columns stay fixed?

Thanks in anticipation of any help

This is an issue with your CSS layout as far as I can tell. Your layout is coded as such that any changes to the left most content affects the other two as well. Quickly playing around with your HTML I couldn't fix the issue, but in general, you should put the Accordion Menu in the column of its own that's also floated like the other two, such as using a 3 column CSS layout.
