To make the accordion menu always open ))

[mrtdiesel]

I use old ddaccordion. Script - ddaccordion, link - http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...daccordion.htm
Tried all settings. But to make the default is ALWAYS open items i could not.

ddaccordion.init({
	headerclass: "submenuheader", //Shared CSS class name of headers group
	contentclass: "submenu", //Shared CSS class name of contents group
	revealtype: "mouseover", //Reveal content when user clicks or onmouseover the header? Valid value: "click", "clickgo", 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: true, //Specify whether at least one header should be open always (so never all headers closed)
	animatedefault: true, //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='plus.gif' class='statusicon' />", "<img src='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
	}
})

You should also set the options persiststate and collapseprev if you wish all headers to be open by default when the page loads in all circumstances:

ddaccordion.init({
	headerclass: "submenuheader", //Shared CSS class name of headers group
	contentclass: "submenu", //Shared CSS class name of contents group
	revealtype: "mouseover", //Reveal content when user clicks or onmouseover the header? Valid value: "click", "clickgo", or "mouseover"
	mouseoverdelay: 200, //if revealtype="mouseover", set delay in milliseconds before header expands onMouseover
	collapseprev: false, //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: true, //Specify whether at least one header should be open always (so never all headers closed)
	animatedefault: true, //Should contents open by default be animated into view?
	persiststate: false, //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='plus.gif' class='statusicon' />", "<img src='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
	}
})

DD Admin thank you. But options "persiststate" and "collapseprev" do not open the menu when you first visit the site. They are only open items after user actions and not hide the menu after navigating to other pages. It is necessary that the menu items were open always. Maybe it's easy to do. But not using the current settings. But I don't know Java script. Sorry for my English.

[ddadmin]

Ah yes you're right. Well, in that case, you can make sure of the defaultexpanded option to specify the contents to be open, in this case, all of them:

ddaccordion.init({
	headerclass: "submenuheader", //Shared CSS class name of headers group
	contentclass: "submenu", //Shared CSS class name of contents group
	revealtype: "mouseover", //Reveal content when user clicks or onmouseover the header? Valid value: "click", "clickgo", or "mouseover"
	mouseoverdelay: 200, //if revealtype="mouseover", set delay in milliseconds before header expands onMouseover
	collapseprev: false, //Collapse previous content (so only one open at any time)? true/false 
	defaultexpanded: [0,1,2,3], //index of content(s) open by default [index1, index2, etc] [] denotes no content
	onemustopen: true, //Specify whether at least one header should be open always (so never all headers closed)
	animatedefault: true, //Should contents open by default be animated into view?
	persiststate: false, //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='plus.gif' class='statusicon' />", "<img src='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
	}
})

If you don't know the exact number of accordion contents in advanced, you can also call instead:

ddaccordion.expandall('header_class')

to expand all of the accordion contents. See this page: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...suppliment.htm The above method should be called after the Accordion has been initialized though. If you need help with this, let me know.

defaultexpanded [0,1,2,3] - does not work. But I did like this [index1, index2...]. This scheme works. But exactly the opposite - always closed headers menu. Sub menu items are not visible. Maybe can specify the option so that it "does not equal" (as in PHP - defaultexpanded "! =" [index1, index2...])?

[ddadmin]

Hmm it should have worked. Do you have a URL to the problem page with the changes suggested so far implemented that we can check out?

[mrtdiesel]

Ok. all pages except the main /index.html have these settings - defaultexpanded: [index0,index1,index2,index4]. For example http://rods.ru/rods/index.php?page=egypt
index.html have these settings - defaultexpanded: [].

The complete code for http://rods.ru/rods/index.php?page=egypt :

You currently have:

defaultexpanded: [index0,index1,index2,index4], //index of content(s) open by default [index1, index2, etc] [] denotes no content

which is incorrect. The indices need to be specified as integers, so:

defaultexpanded: [0,1,2,3], //index of content(s) open by default [index1, index2, etc] [] denotes no content

[mrtdiesel]

As I said, I already did [0,1,2,3,4] but it absolutely does not work (does not react).
And with the current form [index0,index1,index2] at least something is happening, but on the contrary!))
Look, now I've done this: [0,1,2,3,4]

[mrtdiesel]

Can the option "defaultexpanded" conflicts with other options?
